A simple oleanlic acid derivative as potent organogelator

Abstract

The organogel formation of 2,3-dihydroxyimino-oleanic acid in different organic solvents was reported for the first time. The structure and physical properties of the organogel were studied by scanning electron microscopy, circular dichromism spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. The intermolecular hydrogen bonding was considered as the primary driving force for gel formation, which was confirmed by infrared spectroscopy and variable temperature 1H NMR.
