Self-healing metallo-supramolecular hydrogel based on specific Ni2+ coordination interactions of poly(ethylene glycol) with bistriazole pyridine ligands in the main chain [PDF]
In this study, a supramolecular hydrogel formed by incorporating the 2,6-bis(1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)-pyridine (btp) ligand in the backbone of a polymer prepared by copper(I)-catalyzed alkyne-azide cycloaddition (CuAAC) "click" polyaddition reaction of 2,6 ...

Continual reproduction of self-assembling oligotriazole peptide nanomaterials. [PDF]
Autocatalytic chemical reactions, whereby a molecule is able to catalyze its own formation from a set of precursors, mimic nature's ability to generate identical copies of relevant biomolecules, and are thought to have been crucial for the origin of life.

Cationic Copper Iminophosphorane Complexes as CuAAC Catalysts: A Mechanistic Study [PDF]
We have combined Cu K-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy with NMR spectroscopy (1H and 31P) to study the Cu-catalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction under operando conditions. A variety of novel, well-defined CuI iminophosphorane complexes were prepared.
