Simply structured molecules are very important to understand the mechanism of self-assembly and aggregation of molecules at different distance scales. Preparation and studies of  N-(phenylalkyl)octadecanamides, N-(acridin-9-yl)alkanamides,  and antrhaquinone derivatives will be presented. Structure property correlations and morphology between the molecular structures of the gelators and the properties of their gels using spectroscopic and rheology will be discussed.<br/>We thank Prof. Richard Weiss (Georgetown University) for the use of rheometer and polarizing optical microscope.<br/>

Self-assembly, mechanical and thermal properties of molecular gels derived from simply structured molecules as low molecular mass gelators
