Three chiral compounds and their racemates were prepared. One of the chiral compounds and its racemate contained two n-dodecanoylamino groups as the same substituents. The other two chiral compounds and their racemates contained different substituents: 10-undecenoylamino and 2-heptyl-undecanoylamino groups, and 5-hydroxypentanoylamino and 2-heptylundecanoylamino groups. Their gelation abilities were evaluated on the basis of the minimum gel concentration using eight solvents. The thermal stability and transparency of the gels were investigated by UV-vis spectroscopy using three-component mixed solvents of hexadecyl 2-ethylhexanoate, liquid paraffin, and decamethyl cyclopentasiloxane (66 combinations). The gel-to-sol phase-transition temperatures were also studied. The viscoelastic behavior of the gels was studied by rheology measurements in the strain sweep mode. Aggregates constructing three-dimensional networks were studied by transmission electron microscopy and circular dichroism spectroscopy. The molecular packing of the gels was evaluated by small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS)., Article, BULLETIN OF THE CHEMICAL SOCIETY OF JAPAN.90(3):312-321(2017)}, pages = {312--321}, title = {Characteristics of Gelation by Amides Based on trans-1,2-Diaminocyclohexane: The Importance of Different Substituents}, volume = {90}, year = {2017} }
