The present invention provides a compound that thickens or gels a fluid organic substance to a desired viscosity, or uniformly stabilizes a composition containing a fluid organic substance. The compound of the present invention is a compound represented by Formula (1) below: wherein, R1 represents a monovalent aliphatic hydrocarbon group having 4 or more carbons; R2 represents a divalent aliphatic hydrocarbon group having from 1 to 12 carbons; R3 represents a monovalent aliphatic hydrocarbon group having from 1 to 12 carbons; m represents an integer from 0 to 10; and n represents an integer from 1 to 4; in a case where n is 1 or 2, (4 - n) R1s may be the same or different; and in a case where n is from 2 to 4, n R2s, n R3s, and n m's each may be the same or different.
