title: Five-fold symmetric penta-substituted corannulene with gelation properties and a liquid-crystalline phase.
abstract: Five-fold symmetric substituted corannulene derivatives that display liquid-crystalline behavior and organogelation properties were prepared by coupling of N-azidoethyl long-chain fatty acid amides to sym-pentabutynyl corannulenes via dipolar cycloaddition chemistry.
