title: A new family of "clicked" estradiol-based low-molecular-weight gelators having highly symmetry-dependent gelation ability.
abstract: Reported herein is the discovery of a novel family of "clicked" estradiol-based LMWGs whose gelation ability highly depends on the gelator symmetry. These LMWGs that gel different organic solvents in the presence of H(2)O even at concentrations as low as 0.04 wt% are readily accessible using "click" chemistry.
