Abstract
The new L‐lysine alkali‐metal salts 1–5 (M^+^=Na^+^ and K^+^) with different alkyl groups at the N^α^‐position were easily synthesized, and their hydro‐ and organogelation properties were investigated. All compounds were H~2~O‐soluble, and some salts, especially the potassium salts, functioned as a hydrogenator that could gel water below 2 wt‐%. These salts also had organogelation abilities for many organic solvents.
