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
