The synthesis of polar molecular materials with designer properties is a fundamental target of contemporary materials research. Perhydrotriphenylene (PHTP) is a molecular building block that, when co-crystallized with dipolar guest molecules, has yielded polar inclusion compound crystals [1] in 95 % of the 40 cases we have studied. A statistical mechanism described more generally by Markov's theory of stochastic processes [2] has recently been identified as the driving force behind polarity formation during self-assembly. [3,4] Markov's theory is a statistical description in which future events within a system depend on a constant set of probabilities acting on its present state. This concept has been applied to chemical reactions, [2] to the prediction of DNA sequences, [5] and to copolymer [6] and protein [7] formation. In the context of designing efficient nonlinear optical (NLO) materials, [8,9] these probabilities are associated with the orientations of dipoles during crystal growth. Based on this groundwork, we now present the first example of a fully rational synthesis of polar materials from a given set of precursors (PHTP and three different guests); varying the relative proportions of each guest permits us to tune the level of polarity with an unprecedented degree of control.The key to such a rational synthesis lies in recognizing the structural elements required. Whilst polar properties (e.g., pyroelectric, second-order nonlinear, and electro-optic effects) can result from the presence of a polar crystal axis, its creation is often difficult, due to the tendency of adjacent dipolar molecules to align in an antiparallel fashion. Many elegant molecular and crystal engineering techniques have been utilized to overcome this problem, [8,9] including the use of derivatized or chiral molecules, Langmuir±Blodgett films, and encapsulation of the molecules as guests within lattices that influence (sterically or electronically) their alignment, e.g., poled polymers, [8] hydrogen-bonding anionic networks, [10] and channel-type inclusion architectures. [11] The {PHTP±guest} inclusion crystals we have studied consist of dipolar molecules AD (where A and D are acceptor and donor substituents, respectively, attached to linear, p-conjugated frameworks) surrounded by columnar stacks of PHTP molecules oriented parallel to the channel axis (Fig. 1). The guests align as molecular chains within the well-separated channels, with negligible interchannel interactions. The hydrocarbon nature of PHTP results in it having minimal electronic influence over the packing of the guests. Polarity in this system is thus governed by the relative orientations of the guests as they align within the channels, which in turn are controlled by the intermolecular interaction energies of the A and D substituents.[**] This work was supported by the Swiss National Science Foundation through grants NFP 36 (no. 4036-0439932) and NF (no. 20-4316.95).
