The minimal structure of a wholly pi-conjugated aromatic organogelator was explored in this work to show that distyrylbenzene with simple beta-cyano substitution (beta-DCS) is highly efficient for gelation which is attributed to the cooperative interplay of pi-pi stacking and secondary bonding interactions of dipolar cyano groups.
