Herein we report the first approach of benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxamides (BTAs) with long-range liquid crystalline properties by utilizing hydrophobic alkyl side chains at the amide functional group. These compounds were successfully prepared in high yields by reacting 1,3,5-benzenetricarbonyl trichlori...
