摘要

Seeing stars: The two-dimensional patterns of the polycyclic heteroaromatic star molecules 1 on graphite vary with the side chain length. For n=12, frustrated self-assembly leads to hierarchically organized superstructures: up to 10 molecules form triangular aggregates which pack densely into hexagonal patterns with very large (15.5 nm) lattice constants.Copyright © 2012 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
