Three modular types of bis(aminoalcohol)oxalamides (1, 4, and 7) and bis(aminoalcohol)diglycolylamide (8)
gelators have been prepared by the reaction of the respective aminoalcohols with oxalyl and digycolyl methylesters as
potential low-molecular-weight organogelators. The gelation properties of these amides have been evaluated in various
aromatic organic solvents (xylene, toluene, isopropyl benzene, and aromatic ether type organic fluids such as anisole or
α-phenylethylmethylether) as well as the long-chain aliphatic alcohols (1-hexanol, 1-octanol, 2-octanol, and aromatic 1-
phenylethanol). The compounds with sec-butyl and ethyl side chains produce good gelation properties in both aromatic
and other organic fluids. Furthermore, the common oxalamide linker present in the gelators was replaced by an extended
diglycolylamide linker (8) and its behaviors were compared with the benzylic oxalamide analog (3). The gelator (8) gives
the best results with aromatic fluid and lauric acid ethyl ester. 1 H NMR studies reveal the existence of temperaturedependent network assembly/dissolution equilibrium and produce Kgel . FTIR was employed to see the effect of hydrogen
bonding in the formation of gel network. Thermodynamic parameters regarding gel-to-sol transition were collected with
van’t Hoff relationships.
