Abstract
1,3,5-Tris(phenylisoxazolyl)benzene derivatives possessing polar and nonpolar side chains were synthesized. The microscopic gel morphology was confirmed by using FESEM, TEM, and XRD measurements. The amphiphilic nature of the tris(phenylisoxazolyl)benzene derivative gives rise to the lamellar structure, responsible for the formation of the fibrous bundles. The intertwined networks of the bundles immobilize the alcoholic solvents, and result in the formation of the organogels.
