Abstract
A route to triptycenes substituted with one, two, five, and six paraff inic chains was developed using the Diels-Alder reaction as the key re action. ecyloxy)-11-hydroxy-14-(dode-canoyloxy)triptycene, is(dodecylo xy)-11,14-bis(dodecanoyloxy)triptycene, and 1,4,5,8-11,14-hexakis(dode cyloxy)triptycene were obtained in a nine-step procedure starting from diaminoanthrarufin. The five-chain derivative demonstrates original m esomorphic properties.
