Abstract

A new family of coumarin derivatives containing amide group with different alkyl chain lengths was synthesized and their properties as organogelators were evaluated. It was found that the organogelation abilities were not obviously affected by the alkyl spacer length of amide group. Helical morphologies formed either in nonpolar or high polar solvents by most of the gelators. Occurrence of reversible and stereoselective photodimerization of the ...
