Supramolecular gels for the remediation of reactive organophosphorus compounds

Pyridine-based gels formed with a cyclohexyl diamide gelator have been shown to undergo a gel-sol transition upon addition of the organophosphorus (OP) chemical warfare agent (CWA) simulant diethyl chlorophosphate (DCP). This is due to a reaction between the gelator and DCP resulting in the disrupti...
