Efficient and eco-friendly low-molecular-weight gelators based on l-phenylalanine as promising remediation tool for oil pollution
New low-molecular-weight gelators based on l-phenylalanine derivatives bearing long alkyl chains with different lengths were synthesized via one synthetic step. These gelators [i.e. 1 and 2] were nontoxic, biodegradable and prepared using naturally occurring starting materials. The gelation ability...
