Supramolecular polymer gels are precisely designed physical gels brought together by
reversible secondary interactions to form three dimensional networks of melt …

The growing synergy between supramolecular chemistry and polymer synthesis is driven by
the realization that the dynamic nature of non-covalent interactions may bring new …

The controlled ring-opening polymerization of l-lactide and d-lactide using 2-aminopyridine
(AP), isocytosine (IC), uridine (U), and 2-ureido-4 [1H]-pyrimidinone (UPy-OH) initiators with …

Telechelic and 3-arm star-shaped poly (l-lactic acid) s (PLLAs) and poly (d-lactic acid) s
(PDLAs) end-functionalized by 2-ureido-4 [1 H]-pyrimidione (UPy) self-complementary …

DNA and poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) are co-assembled onto gold nanoparticles. The DNA
sequences can be reversibly exposed or hidden from the polymer surface in response to …

The contribution of supramolecular chemistry to polymer science opens new perspectives
for the design of polymer materials exhibiting valuable properties and easier processability …

The synthesis and thermomechanical properties of a novel class of self‐healing
perfluoropolyethers (PFPEs) is reported. By decoration of 2‐ureido‐4 [1H]‐pyrimidone end …

Self-assembly is an important phenomenon that allows nature to carry out many important
functions. Of the several non-covalent interactions present H-bonding finds a special place …

We show that, all other conditions being equal, bond cleavage in the middle of molecules is
entropically much more favored than bond cleavage at the end. Multiple experimental and …

Telechelic oligomers functionalized with 2-ureido-4 [1 H]-pyrimidone (UPy), a quadruple
hydrogen bonding group, have been synthesized using a combination of atom-transfer …
