About this ebook

The objective of this primer is to discuss the chemistry of self-assembly. It introduces some of the common reactions you need to know to prepare a desired molecule that can self-assemble (or various molecules that can be mixed to create a self-assembled system). The focus is on four self-assembled systems composed of peptides, peptoids, sugars, and dendrimers.
