Abstract
We modified C3-symmetric benzene-1,3,5-tris-amide (BTA) by introducing flexible linkers in order to generate an N-centered BTA (N-BTA) molecule. The N-BTA compound formed gels in alcohols and aqueous mixtures of high-polar solvents. Rheological studies showed that the DMSO/water (1:1, v/v) gels were mechanically stronger compared to other gels, and a similar trend was observed for thermal stability. Powder X-ray analysis of the xerogel obtained from various aqueous gels revealed that the packing modes of the gelators in these systems were similar. The stimuli-responsive properties of the N-BTA towards sodium/potassium salts indicated that the gel network collapsed in the presence of more nucleophilic anions such as cyanide, fluoride, and chloride salts at the MGC, but the gel network was intact when in contact with nitrate, sulphate, acetate, bromide, and iodide salts, indicating the anion-responsive properties of N-BTA gels. Anion-induced gel formation was observed for less nucleophilic anions below the MGC of N-BTA. The ability of N-BTA gels to act as an adsorbent for hazardous anionic and cationic dyes in water was evaluated. The results indicated that the ethanolic gels of N-BTA successfully absorbed methylene blue and methyl orange dyes from water. This work demonstrates the potential of the N-BTA gelator to act as a stimuli-responsive material and a promising candidate for water purification.

Abstract
Hydrogen-bonded polymers are a class of highly dynamic supramolecular aggregates, whose self-assembly may be tuned by very mild external or internal stimuli. However, the rational design of chiral supramolecules remains challenging especially when flexible components are involved. The combination of the inherent weakness and dynamic nature of the intermolecular bonds that hold together such assemblies with unrestricted molecular motions introduces additional factors which may affect the self-assembly process. In this report, the self-assembly of four amino acid-derived chiral biphenyldiimides into open-chain 1D supramolecular polymers is presented. While the primary driving force, COOH···HOOC hydrogen bonding, is responsible for the polymer growth in all cases, the amino acid side chains play an important role in either stabilizing or destabilizing the assemblies obtained, as deduced from studies of the thermodynamics of the self-assembly process. Furthermore, substantial differences in the structural factors governing the polymerization process between dynamic liquid and static solid are found. This work demonstrates the potential of the rather unexplored class of diimide-based organic dyes in the formation of well-organized chiral supramolecular assemblies with tunable properties.

Abstract
As novel solvents, deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are non-toxic, easily producible and biocompatible, which is attractive for eutectogel fabrication. In this work, a benzene 1,3,5-tricarboxamide (BTA) derivative (substituted by three hexanoic acid) was selected to prepare a supramolecular gel in a suitable DES composed of choline chloride and phenylacetic acid molecules. The obtained eutectogel exhibited higher stability than that produced in conventional solvents. The gel microstructure was composed of spiral fiber networks as confirmed from atomic force microscopy and scanning electron microscopy observations. Macroscopic chirality was therefore recognized by the circular dichromatic spectrum, though such a supramolecular chiral signal was random. To explore the gelation mechanism, the effect of BTA derivative molecular structure change was systematically investigated. With the help of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and powder X-ray diffraction, the gel formation was attributed to the π-π stacking of adjacent BTA molecules and the three-fold hydrogen bond between amide groups or the hydrogen bond between carboxylic groups. Furthermore, the directional hydrogen bonds between BTA and solvent molecules induced their aggregate to form one-dimensional fibers, which were either left- or right-handed. The obtained results not only extend the gel systems in DESs, but also help design the supramolecular chirality from non-chiral molecules.

Abstract
Mimicking the complexity of biological systems with synthetic supramolecular materials requires a deep understanding of the relationship between the structure of the molecule and its self-assembly pattern. Herein, we report a series of water-soluble benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxamide-based di- and tripeptide derivatives modified with small non-bulky terminal amine salt to induce self-assembly into twisted one-dimensional higher-order nanofibers. The morphology of nanofibers strongly depends on the nature, order, and quantity of amino acids in the short peptide fragments and vary from simple cylindrical to complex helical. From observations of several fiber-splitting events, we detected interfiber interactions that always occur in a pairwise manner, which implies that the C3 symmetry of benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxamide-based molecules in higher-order fibers becomes gradually distorted, thus facilitating hydrophobic contact interactions between fibrils. The proposed mechanism of self-assembly through hydrophobic contact allowed the successful design of a compound with pH-responsive morphology, and may find use in the future development of complex hierarchical architectures with controlled functionality.

Abstract
Precise characterization of the hydrogen bond network present in discrete self-assemblies of benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxamide monomers derived from amino-esters (ester BTAs) is crucial for the construction of elaborated functional co-assemblies. For all ester BTA dimeric structures previously reported, ester carbonyls in the side chain acted as hydrogen bond acceptors, yielding well-defined dimers stabilized by six hydrogen bonds. The ester BTA monomer derived from glycine (BTA Gly) shows a markedly different self-assembly behaviour. We report herein a combined experimental and computational investigation aimed at determining the nature of the dimeric species formed by BTA Gly. Two distinct dimeric structures were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction measurements. Likewise, a range of spectroscopic and scattering techniques as well as molecular modelling were employed to diagnose the nature of dynamic dimeric structures in toluene. Our results unambiguously establish that both ester and amide carbonyls are involved in the hydrogen bond network of the discrete dimeric species formed by BTA Gly. The participation of roughly 4.5 ester carbonyls and 1.5 amide carbonyls per dimer as determined by FT-IR spectroscopy implies that several conformations coexist in solution. Moreover, NMR analysis and modelling data reveal rapid interconversion between these different conformers leading to a symmetric structure on the NMR timescale. Rapid hydrogen bond shuffling between conformers having three (three), two (four), one (five) and zero (six) amide carbonyl groups (ester carbonyl groups, respectively) as hydrogen bond acceptors is proposed to explain the magnetic equivalence of the amide N-H on the NMR timescale. When compared to other ester BTA derivatives in which only ester carbonyls act as hydrogen bond acceptors, the fluxional behaviour of the hydrogen-bonded dimers of BTA Gly likely originates from a larger range of energetically favorable conformations accessible through rotation of the BTA side chains.

Abstract
![]()
In biology, polymorphism is a well-known
phenomenon by which a
discrete biomacromolecule can adopt multiple specific conformations
in response to its environment. The controlled incorporation of polymorphism
into noncovalent aqueous assemblies of synthetic small molecules is
an important step toward the development of bioinspired responsive
materials. Herein, we report on a family of carboxylic acid functionalized
water-soluble benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxamides (BTAs) that self-assemble
in water to form one-dimensional fibers, membranes, and hollow nanotubes.
Interestingly, one of the BTAs with the optimized position of the
carboxylic group in the hydrophobic domain yields nanotubes that undergo
reversible temperature-dependent dynamic reorganizations. SAXS and
Cryo-TEM data show the formation of elongated, well-ordered nanotubes
at elevated temperatures. At these temperatures, increased dynamics,
as measured by hydrogen–deuterium exchange, provide enough
flexibility to the system to form well-defined nanotube structures
with apparently defect-free tube walls. Without this flexibility,
the assemblies are frozen into a variety of structures that are very
similar at the supramolecular level, but less defined at the mesoscopic
level.

Abstract
Flexible benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxamides (BTAs), organic species well-known for their tendencies to form functional soft-materials by virtue of their complementary hydrogen bonding, are explored as structurally reinforcing supramolecular building blocks in porous coordination polymers. We report the synthesis and characterisation of two related, carboxylate-terminated BTA derivatives, and the structure and functionality of their polymeric Cd(ii) complexes. The polycarboxylate ligand benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxamide tris(phenylacetic acid) H3L1 was prepared, and the analogous trimethyl benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxamide tris acetate Me3L2 was prepared and its single crystal structure elucidated. On reaction with cadmium nitrate in a DMF/H2O mixture, each BTA compound yielded coordination polymer species with columnar packing motifs comparable to the familiar BTA triple helix seen in purely organic systems. In the case of Me3L2, this transformation was achieved through a convenient in situ ester hydrolysis. Complex 1 is a 2-dimensional layered material containing tubular intralayer pores, in which amide-amide hydrogen bonding is a notable structural feature. In contrast, the structure of 2 contains no amide-amide hydrogen bonding, and instead a columnar arrangement of ligand species is linked by trinuclear Cd(ii) cluster nodes into a densely packed three-dimensional framework. The crystal structures revealed both materials exhibited significant solvent-accessible volume, and this was probed with thermal analysis and CO2 and N2 adsorption experiments; complex 2 showed negligible gas uptake, while compound 1 possesses an unusually high CO2 capacity for a two-dimensional material with intralayer porosity and surprising structural resilience to guest exchange, evacuation and exposure to air.
