Monomolecular sheets of propeller-shaped triethyl 4,4',4''-[benzene-1,3,5-triyltris(ethyne-2,1-di­yl)]tribenzoate deuterochloroform monosolvate

Triethyl 4,4',4''-[benzene-1,3,5-triyltris(ethyne-2,1-di­yl)]tribenzoate is a propeller-shaped mol­ecule of particular inter­est in the field of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), where its hydrolyzed analogue forms MOF structures with high surface areas. Centrosymmetric dimers formed by [pi]-[pi] inter­actions are inter­connected by inter­molecular C-H...[pi] inter­actions.
