A chiral low-molecular-weight gelator based on binaphthalene with two urea moieties: Modulation of the CD spectrum after gel formation
The synthesis and characterization of a new chiral LMWG 1 based on the axially chiral binaphthalene with two urea moieties were described. A transparent gel in cyclohexane with LMWG 1 was obtained and characterized by SEM, XRD and CD techniques. The results of H-1 NMR measurement indicated that the intermolecular H-bonds and pi-pi interaction may be responsible for the gel formation. It was demonstrated that the gel phase could be destroyed by addition of F-due to the disruption of intermolecular H-bonds. After gel formation, modulation of the CD spectrum of 1 was observed.
