TL;DR: Of interest is that the organogel exhibits a 3-D network structure of a beltlike fiber composed of ordered lamellar arrangements of the coordinated complex and shows a rapid response to wide chemical stimulations such as anions I-, Br-, and Cl-, gases such as H(2)S and NH(3), and a change of pH.

TL;DR: A new type of hybrid supramolecular gel derived from a synergetic self-assembling of organic and inorganic components has been prepared through encapsulating a series of polyoxometalate (POM) clusters with ammonium surfactants bearing two alkyl chains.

TL;DR: The observation of the formation process of hybrids by TEM shows that ethanol plays an important role in the self-assembly, and the hexagonal mesostructure can transform into nanofibers comprising nanofibrils in water through the disassembly.

TL;DR: An organically pyridyl-grafted Anderson-type POM complex was found to form supramolecular gels instantaneously through mixing with appropriate dicarboxylic acid additives in acetonitrile as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: Mn(12) single-molecule magnets have been dispersed in water through an emulsion-assisted self-assembly method with an improved stability in water, in order to investigate the use of Mn( 12) as MRI contrast agents.
