A highly selective, Hg2+ triggered hydrogelation: modulation of morphology by chemical stimuli
2014
We report the first Hg2+ selective hydrogelation by 4´-[4-(4- aminophenyl)phenyl]-2,2´:6´,2´´-terpyridine. The gel showed remarkable response towards specific chemical agents such as benzo-18-crown-6 ether and K+ which enabled extensive 10 modulation of the gel morphology. peerReviewed
Transition metal ion induced hydrogelation by amino-terpyridine ligands
2014
Hydrogelation behavior of two amino-terpyridine ligands in the presence of divalent metal ions in water was studied in detail. The effect of ligand structure and different counter anions on the gel morphologies was also explored. peerReviewed
