Water-soluble and self-assembling DAN & NDI based peptide aromatic oligomers

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: Water-soluble α-amino acids bearing quaternary-ammonium DAN or NDI side chains were synthesised and incorporated into peptides by standard SPPS. The resulting oligomers self-assemble in water through intermolecular DAN : NDI charge-transfer interactions.
