Solvent-chirality selective organogelation by chiral aspartame lipids

We examined supramolecular gelation of propylene carbonate enantiomers with novel chiral aspartame lipids. Different gelation ability and stability were observed based on the combination of gelator and the solvent enantiomers. This work demonstrates that gelator-solvent chirality matching can determine self-assembled nanostructures and gelation efficiency.
