Supramolecular gels as active media for organic reactions and catalysis

Supramolecular gels have attracted an enormous amount of interest from scientists in the last decade because of their potential applications proposed up to now in fields of great social impact like biomedicine or materials science. However, their potential in organic transformations and catalysis has been only scarcely explored. In this review we describe the state-of-the-art as well as the contribution of our group to the field of reactive and catalytic supramolecular gels.
