Bithiophenyl-based diaminotriazine derivatives (2TDT-n, n = 10, 12, 16, and 18) with different chain lengths display colhex/p6mm mesophases. Their supramolecular self-assembled mechanism is investigated using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) at the 1-octanoic acid/graphite interface at various concentrations. The chain length effect on the two-dimensional adlayers is observed in this system, and 2TDT-n molecules show a structural phase transition from the four-leaf arrangement to the two-row linear nanostructure accompanied by the emergence of molecular isomerization with the increase of the side-chain length. The self-assembled structure of 2TDT-10 is composed of a four-leaf pattern with uniform s-cis conformers. In 2TDT-12, three kinds of nanostructures (bamboo-like, two-row linear pattern-I, and flower-like) are observed. These nanostructures are randomly constituted by cis and trans conformers, and the ratios of the s-cis conformer in three kinds of patterns are 55.7, 42.3, and 62.5%, respectively. Furthermore, when n = 16 and 18, the ratio of the s-cis conformer further decreases to 19.0 and 4.3%, respectively. Those molecules mainly form linear nanostructures consisting of s-trans conformers. Therefore, it is reasonable to conclude that the side-chain length has a great effect on the self-assembled patterns and the molecular conformation of bithiophenyl-based diaminotriazine derivatives. Density functional theory calculations are applied to optimize molecular conformers and assess their single-point energies, showing that the s-cis conformation has higher energy than the s-trans conformer. We speculate that the ratio of two conformers in nanostructures might be similar to that of the liquid crystalline phase.
