pubmed:abstractText
This article describes the systematic preparation of a novel family of carbohydrate amphiphiles and bolaamphiphiles in which hydrophilic and hydrophobic units are connected via a ureido or bis(ureido) moiety. The sugar core is derived from aminopolyols such as D-glucamine (1), N-methyl-D-glucamine (2), or the sugar-like species tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (3). The O-unprotected derivatives behave as self-organizing nonionic surfactants with good water gelation ability, which can be induced under thermal or ultrasound-driven stimuli. In addition, some derivatives of 1 and 2, and rarely 3 also formed lyotropic liquid crystals with lamellar or hexagonal structures that exhibit low-temperature transitions.
