Description:
<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>The self‐assembly of a series of small peptidomimetic cyclophanes in organic solvents was studied. X‐ray diffraction, NMR spectroscopy, and molecular modelling were used to understand the structural features of these self‐assembling compounds both at the molecular and supramolecular level. The factors that could influence the formation of gels rather than crystals were studied and a model for the arrangement of molecules in the gel was proposed. Furthermore, scanning electron microscopy revealed that in some cases these compounds undergo a transcription of chirality when going from organogelator to helicoidal gel fibres.</jats:p>
