Abstract: A newly designed stiff-stilbene functionalized biscalix[4]arene in its cis form Z-1 could be near-quantitatively photoswitched to the trans-isomer E-1 under irradiation of 385 nm UV light. The trans-biscalix[4]arene E-1 was found to be a supergelator… read more here.

Abstract: The morphologies of an azobenzene-bridged biscalix[4]arene organogel in different organic solvents can be photo-reversibly switched between nanofibers and nanorings as well as between closed and open-form vesicles. read more here.
