ABSTRACT
Norcorrole derivatives with 3,4,5-trialkoxyphenyl moieties at the meso positions were synthesized to form various stacking assemblies in single crystals and thermotropic liquid crystals (LCs) depending on aliphatic chain lengths. Triple-decker stacking structures were formed via the interactions between the antiaromatic systems formed for the butoxy and dodecyloxy derivatives in the single-crystal and LC states, respectively. In particular, the LC state exhibited discotic columnar structures comprising triple deckers to exhibit high electric conductivity, as supported by molecular dynamics simulations.
