• bisimides [10][11][12], acenes [13][14] and merocyanines [15][16] have been studied in recent years. Self-assembly of various oligothiophene derivatives have been extensively investigated on account of their semiconducting and optoelectronic properties [17]. Feringa and co-workers reported organogels based
