On the Scalability of Supramolecular Networks − High Packing Density vs Optimized Hydrogen Bonds in Tricarboxylic Acid Monolayers

We present a scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) based study of 1,3,5-tris[4′-carboxy(1,1′-biphenyl-4-yl)]benzene (TCBPB) monolayers at the liquid−solid interface. In analogy to smaller aromatic 3-fold symmetric tricarboxylic acids, this compound was aimed to yield two-dimensional nanoporous networks with large cavitie...
