Abstract

Diaminotriazines are known to self-associate in solution, in the solid state, and on surfaces via characteristic hydrogen bonding motifs. Although complementary hydrogen bonding between diaminotriazine derivatives and carboxylic acids has been shown to induce mesomorphic properties, the hydrogen-bonded self-association of diaminotriazines to form liquid crystalline phases has not been reported. Here, we describe the synthesis and ...
