Employing fluorine for supramolecular control in self-assembled and self-organised molecular systems.

ABSTRACT: This perspective will consider some of the ways in which the judicious deployment of individual fluorine atoms or collections thereof in molecular systems can influence their supramolecular organisation. While many of the examples will be from liquid crystal chemistry, the aim is to illustrate the effects of fluorine substitution in such a way to inspire a more general deployment strategy.
