Abstract
A two-dimensional
polymer (2DP) based on the dimerization of anthraceno
groups arranged in a triptycene motif is reported. A photoinduced
polymerization is performed in the crystalline state and gives a lamellar
2DP via a crystal-to-crystal (but not single-crystal to single-crystal)
transformation. Solvent-induced exfoliation provides monolayer sheets
of the 2DP. The 2DP is considered to be a tiling, a mathematical approach
that facilitates structural elucidation
