23. 2,3,6,7,10,11-Hexakis(1-carboxypentyl-6-oxy)triphenylene and 2,3,6,7,10,-11-hexakis(1-carboxydecyl-6-oxy)triphenylene were obtained by coupling the benzyl ester protected 6-bromohexanoic acid and 11-bromoundecanoic acid, respectively, with 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexahydroxytriphenylene (N. Boden, R. C. Borner, R. J. Bushby, A. N. Cammidge, M. V. Jesudason, Liq. Cryst. 1993, 15, 851) and then removing the benzyl ester protecting groups by hydrogenolysis.
