Anion binding inhibition of the formation of a helical organogel.
A chiral tris(urea) organogelator gels dmso-water and methanol-water mixtures at low weight percent. The formation of the helical gel fibres is partially inhibited by addition of chloride, which is bound by the gelator, resulting in fully crystalline material characterised by X-ray crystallography.
