Oligosaccharides Self-Assemble and Show Intrinsic Optical Properties [PDF]
Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2019 Self-assembling peptides and oligonucleotides have given rise to synthetic materials with several applications in nanotechnology. Aggregation of synthetic oligosaccharides into well-defined architectures has not been reported even though natural polysaccharides, such as cellulose and chitin, are key structural components of biomaterials.

N‐Substituted Azacalixphyrins: Synthesis, Properties, and Self‐Assembly [PDF]
Chemistry – A European Journal, 2016 AbstractPre‐ and postintroduction of substituents with respect to the macrocyclization step leads to previously unknown N‐substituted azacalixphyrins. The stepwise synthetic approach has been studied in detail to highlight the key role of the N‐substituents of the precursors and/or intermediates in terms of reactivity.
