The properties of a series of organogels consisting of a urea or thiourea derivative with one or two n-alkyl substitutuents at the nitrogen atoms (a low molecular-mass organogelator (LMOG)) and an organic liquid are described. They include N.N'-dimethylurea, the LMOG of lowest molecular mass (M, 88) we are aware of. The efficiencies of the LMOGs. based the diversity of liquids gelated, the minimum amount required for gelation of a liquid at room temperature, and the temporal and thermal stabilities of the gels formed, have been investigated as a function of the number, length, and substitution pattern of their n-alkyl chains. The gels are thermally reversible and require generally very low concentrations (< 2wt%) of an LMOG. Some of the LMOGs with shorter chains are more efficient than their longer chained analogues. The structural and thermodynamic properties of the gels have been examined by IR, DSC, and X-ray diffraction techniques. Polarizing optical microscopic analyses of the gels show that the nature of gelator aggregates depends mainly on the alkyl chain length. Changes in the aggregation ability have been examined systematically by perturbing the molecular structure.
