-
Paragraph 0184; 0185; 0186, (2015/02/18)
There is provided a novel gelator containing a sugar derivative. A gelator including a compound of Formula (1) or Formula (2): wherein each of R1 and R3 is independently a linear or branched alkyl group having a carbon atom number of 1 to 20, a cyclic C3-20 alkyl group, or a linear or branched alkenyl group having a carbon atom number of 2 to 20, n is 0 or an integer of 1 to 4, R2 is a hydrogen atom, a linear or branched alkyl group having a carbon atom number of 1 to 10, or an aryl group optionally having a substituent, and R4 and R5 are each a hydroxy group.

Ten methyl 4,6-O-benzylidene α-d-glucopyranosides were synthesized for the purpose of studying systematically the effect of small group changes at position 4 of the aromatic ring on the ability to gelate organic solvents. The gelation properties are discussed on the basis of small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurements, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observations. Sol-gel transition temperatures were determined simultaneously by DSC and temperature-dependent FTIR measurements. The current study emphasizes that carbohydrates furnish not only valuable information about structural requirements for organogelator design, but also for molecular assembly systems in general.
