18. Nonhexagonal TMA structures have been created on Au surfaces by potential-induced adsorption (ref 9) and on the anisotropic (110) surface of Cu by coordination to metals (ref 11).
19. Two-fold packing of molecules with three-fold symmetry on a substrate with three-fold symmetry (HOPG) has been reported for conformationally mobile derivatives of triphenylene and hexabenzocoronene. However, such self-assembly does not have pronounced directionality: (a) Askadskaya, L.; Boeffel, C.; Rabe, J. P. Ber. Bunsen-Ges. Phys. Chem. 1993, 97, 517.

21. However, the esterification is not expected to occur within minutes at 20 °C with no catalyst. Furthermore. NMR and mass spectrometry analyses of mixtures of undecanol, TMA, and heptanoic acid incubated at 100 °C for 1 h over HOPG showed no sign of the ester.

23. The distance between TMA molecules in the X-ray structure (0.96 nm) fits well the separation between the bright spots along the TMA tape (W = 0.97 ± 0.06 nm, Figure 1c).
