A transparent photo-responsive organogel based on a glycoluril supergelator

Abstract

The synthesis of an azo-benzene glycoluril supergelator is reported. The control over the gel/sol state can be accomplished by irradiation and heat, but also (in a unidirectional sense) by incorporation of the glycoluril into a more stable supramolecular assembly.
