Abstract

Rod-like liquid crystalline (LC) polyphilic compounds with a linear oligo(phenyleneethynylene) core, sticky glycerol groups at each end and two long alkyl side chains (C20-C32) at opposite sides form rhombic honeycombs with inner angles around 60/120°, occurring between triangular and square tiling patterns.
