“…6,18,19 In addition, terephthalamides and benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxamides derivatives have been reported to form liquid columnar crystal phases (LC), preorganized surfactants and multi-component organic cages within dynamic combinatorial libraries. [20][21][22][23] Introduction of amino acids into terephthalamide and benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxamides offers the possibility of producing enantiopure chiral building blocks and structures 5,7,24 with potential applications in enantioselective synthesis, separation and detection. The amino acid part can also stabilise the assemblies via hydrogen bonding and moreover provide metal coordination sites.…”
