Abstract

It all gels well: Amphiphilic donor-acceptor-substituted butadienes undergo spontaneous concentration-dependent self-assembly into highly fluorescent vesicles and gels. The vesicles and gels exhibit light-induced destruction and self-repair as a result of the photochromic nature of the butadiene chromophore.
