This transformation generates either organogels (stretched helical form) or nanoparticles (compressed helical form) under the control of polar/low polar stimuli respectively and opens the way to the development of new sensors and stimuli‐sensitive materials based on these conceptseng© 2019 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
