Multi-addressable supramolecular gels based on linear amino acid and bisthienylcyclopentene

1,2-Bisthienylperfluorocyclopentenes covalently linked to two aggregative side-arms derived from 11-aminoundecanoic acid have been designed to self-assemble leading to the formation of supramolecular gels which could be reversibly and independently revealed or suppressed upon acidity, temperature changes and also light irradiation.
