Abstract

•We report the synthesis of novel π extended electron acceptor systems.•We examine the influence of the alkyl chain substituents in the liquid crystalline properties.•We investigate the electron acceptor capability of the novel materials.

Two 2D π-extended hexaazatriphenylene (HAT) derivatives with different alkyl chain peripheries are synthesized and electrochemically characterized showing their good electron acceptor ability. We highlight the influence of the peripheral alkyl chains in the liquid crystal properties of both HAT derivatives.
