Seeded Polymerization through the Interplay of Folding and Aggregation of an Amino-Acid-based Diamide

Seeded Polymerization through the Interplay of Folding and Aggregation of an Amino-Acid-based Diamide
Kentarou Matsumoto, Shigehiro Yamaguchi, Soichiro Ogi
The utility of an amino-acid-based diamide in seeded supramolecular polymerization is demonstrated by S. Ogi, K. Matsumoto, and S. Yamaguchi in their Communication (DOI: 10.1002/anie.201712119). The spontaneous aggregation (right pathway) of diamides in an extended form is effectively retarded by folding of the diamide moiety via intramolecular hydrogen bonding. Under such out-of-equilibrium conditions, the time course of the self-assembly was successfully regulated through a seeding approach (left pathway).
