Abstract

We report that the aqueous self-assembly of aromatic macrocycle amphiphiles containing oligo(ethylene oxide) dendrimers generates switchable 2-D sheet structures. Upon heating, the flat sheets split into uniform nanofibers and subsequent cooling leads to full recovery of the flat sheet, indicative of reversible lengthwise division.
