Recently, CPGs have been exploited for their metal ions which have been reported to show unusual functional properties, such as redox responsiveness, catalysis, phosphorescent behaviour, spin-crossover phenomenon. Furthermore, by selectively binding metal ions to gelator molecules one can affect self-assembly modes and finely tune gelation conditions. I will present on the applications of gel forming functional ligands and metal ions to sensing, drug-delivery and catalysis that have been developed over the past three to five years. Selected ligands include pyridine, tetrazole, carboxyl acid and amino acid moieties which bind to metal ions to form coordination polymer gels in organic solvents or water, and are characterized by their indiscrete structure which self-assemble to form fibrillar networks. |
