This Account presents recent advances in understanding how and why dilute solutions/sols of low-molecular-mass organic gelators (LMOGs) undergo microscopic phase separation to form self-assembled fibrillar networks molecular organogels. Concepts are illustrated structurally at the subnanometer (molecular) several millimeter (bulk) length scales dynamically over time that follow assembly supersaturated into gel phases. Examples include both complicated (ALSmolecules with aromatic, linking,...

A self-assembled photoactive antenna system containing a gold nanoparticle as the central nanocore and appended fullerene moieties photoreceptive hydrophobic shell is designed by functionalizing with thiol derivative of fullerene. Upon suspension fullerene-functionalized nanoparticles (Au−S−C60) in toluene we observe formation 5−30 nm diameter clusters. The ease suspending these nanoassemblies organic solvents allows us to probe excited state interactions spectroscopic methods. quenching...
Rapid and isothermal (at room temperature) uptake of CO2 by solutions or, in some cases, organogels comprised a primary or secondary aliphatic amine (1) an organic liquid leads to situ chemical transformation the corresponding alkylammonium alkylcarbamate (2) based gels.

A series of low molecular-mass organogelators (LMOGs) with conjugated diyne units, R−C⋮CC⋮C−R', has been synthesized from 10,12-pentacosadiynoic acid. R is a long alkyl chain and R' short or containing an amide ester group.
