title: Planar macrocyclic fluoropentamers as supramolecular organogelators.
abstract: Despite their great diversities, 2D-shaped macrocycles that can serve as the organogelators have been surprisingly rare; two planar macrocyclic fluoropentamers designed by us were highly able to gelate organic solvents, largely derived from their strong tendency to form 1D stacked fibrillar structures stabilized by both interplanar H-bonds and π-π stacking forces.
