Abstract

Monodispersed oligoprolines decorated covalently with hydrophobic units show characteristic thermoresponsive behavior with fast and sharp phase transitions at certain concentrations. The phase transition temperatures are dependent on the shape and location of the hydrophobic units, and can be also tuned via supramolecular host–guest interactions.
