Popis: | A symmetrical dipeptide-based diacetylene system (DAs) was found to be able to self-assemble in dichloromethane and to form a compact fiber network which resulted in a stable organogel. As a consequence of the organogel formation, we explored the possibility to run a light-induced topochemical polymerization. This is a typical reaction of ordered diacetylene moieties taking advantage from their organized packing mode resulting from fiber formation. Evidence for the generation of peptide-based polydiacetylenes is provided by Raman, UV-Vis, and CD spectroscopies and a set of microscopic techniques. Finally, we succeeded in processing a polymeric composite by use of the electrospinning technique, starting from a mixture of a dipeptide-based diacetylene and polymethyl methacrylate.
