In this review, we describe the recent advances in supramolecular helical assemblies
formed from chiral and achiral small molecules, oligomers (foldamers), and helical and …

The origin of life is a fascinating, unresolved problem whose deciphering would have
important scientific, epistemological and social implications. Over time, philosophers and …

The discovery and design of small organic molecules capable of gelling aqueous solvents
(hydrogelators) is a rapidly expanding area of research, in particular due to their possible …

The self‐assembly of intelligent supermolecular materials, for example, liquid crystalline
polymers, is the subject of this communication. Employing units based on tartaric acid in the …

In the course of evolution, Nature has developed a multitude of biomacromolecules tailored
to deal with complicated tasks such as information storage, support of tissue, transport, and …

Non-ionic surfactant vesicles (NSVs or niosomes) result from the self assembly of hydrated
surfactant monomers. They are similar in physical structure and form to the more widely …

In the miniaturization of manufactured goods, the practical limits of what can be achieved
when engineering from the “top down” are being approached.(1-9) Despite the continuing …

Amphiphiles self-organize in water to form molecular bilayers. 1-7 The hydrophobic effect
causes aggregation and holds the bilayer together. Repulsive hydration and steric forces, on …

Fluorocarbons and fluorocarbon moieties are uniquely characterized by very strong
intramolecular bonds and very weak intermolecular interactions. This results in a …
