Photothermal Perylene Bisimide Hydrogels. [PDF]
Chemistry, 2023 AbstractGels formed using a perylene bisimide (PBI) as a low molecular weight gelator can show the photothermal effect. Formation of the PBI radical anion results in new absorption bands forming, meaning that subsequent irradiation with a wavelength of light overlapping with the new absorption band leads to heating of the gel. This approach can be used

Self-sorted Oligophenylvinylene and Perylene Bisimide Hydrogels [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 We describe two component hydrogels with networks composed of self-sorted fibres. The component gelators are based on 1,4-distyrylbenzene (OPV3) and perylene bisimide (PBI) units.

Using Solution History to Control Hydrogel Properties of a Perylene Bisimide. [PDF]
Chemistry, 2023 pH dependence on water soluble aggregates is well‐known in the field of low molecular weight gelators (LMWGs), with different aggregates sometimes having very different properties depending on their final pH.

Mechanoresponsive Self-Assembled Perylene Bisimide Films. [PDF]
Chemistry, 2020 AbstractIn this work, self‐assembled amino‐acid appended perylene bisimides (PBIs) have been studied that when processed into thin films change their resistivity in response to being bent. The PBIs assemble into structures in water and form thin films upon drying.

Deracemization of Carbohelicenes by a Chiral Perylene Bisimide Cyclophane Template Catalyst. [PDF]
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl, 2021 Deracemization describes the conversion of a racemic mixture of a chiral molecule into an enantioenriched mixture or an enantiopure compound without structural modifications. Herein, we report an inherently chiral perylene bisimide (PBI) cyclophane whose
