摘要
Without modification of its periphery, cucurbit[7]uril (a macrocyclic cavitand comprising seven glycoluril units) forms a hydrogel. The gelation is thermoreversible and sensitive to pH, but is inhibited by the presence of alkali-metal ions and shows guest-induced stimuli-responsive behavior: upon addition of a small amount of a guest, it undergoes a reversible gel-sol transition with alternating UV irradiation and heat treatment (see picture).
