18. The estimate of the film thickness is an approximation since the molecule is not a long, linear, homogeneous cylinder. Nevertheless, as will be shown for M23, the assumption was proven to be by and large correct, on the basis of X-ray structure factor calculations.

21. The precise orientation of the tetrahydropyranyloxybenzene moiety (Scheme 1b) cannot be established from the GIXD data. We arbitrarily chose the orientation in Figures 3 (bottom) and 4 (bottom). The contribution of this moiety to the calculated Bragg rod intensity profiles is rather small.
