I. Nakazawa et al., pH-dependent reversible polymers formed from cyclic sugar- and aromatic boronic acid-based bolaamphiphiles, CHEM COMMUN, (10), 2000, pp. 881-882
Glucuronamide-based bolaamphiphiles are found to form a reversible, linear
polymolecular array, via a boronate ester linkage attached to the 1,2-posit
ions of the pyranose or furanose ring, upon complexation with an aromatic b
oronic acid-based homologue in aqueous solutions.
