title: A self assembled molecular zipper based on a perfluorophenyl-phenyl diacetylene motif.
abstract: The synthesis and characterization of a molecular rod consisting of a pentafluorophenyl and a para-dodecylphenyl subunit linked by a diacetylene and its large area self assembly into perfect parallel lines consisting of interlocked molecular rods are reported and discussed.
