The synthesis of several perfluoroalkylated hexabenzocoronene derivatives is described. The substituents range from linear semiperfluoroalkylated chains to branched perfluoroalkylated chains. Novel strategies were applied to overcome the low solubility and the low reactivity of such chains.

The self-assembled architectures in solution of a new HBC derivative bearing perfluoroalkylated side chains were investigated by optical excitation and emission spectroscopy and correlated to cryo-SEM, a new technique in organic chemistry.

The investigation of two hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene (HBC) derivatives carrying linear or branched perfluoroalkylated side chains is reported. Polycondensed aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) such as HBC derivatives are well known to self-organize to form highly ordered monomolecular stacks, which in turn show a concentration- and solvent-dependent lateral aggregation. However, possible...

Substituted disc-shaped perfluoroalkylated hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronenes (HBC), known to self-assemble into conducting ordered architectures, were synthesized and characterized. A systematic variation of the linear or branched perfluoroalkylated side chains was performed in order to screen the influence of the lateral chain on their one-dimensional self-aggregation.

Synthesis of VLCFAs (very long chain fatty acids) and biosynthesis of DHS (dihydrosphingosine) both are of vital importance for Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The bulk of VLCFAs and DHS are used for ceramide synthesis by the Lag1p (longevity-assurance gene 1)/Lac1p (longevity-assurance gene cognate 1)/Lip1p (Lag1p/Lac1p interacting protein) ceramide synthase. LAG1 and LAC1 are...
