The relatively high price of aluminum alkoxides as an alumina source and organic surfactants as morphology control or structure directing agents are less attractive for practical applications to the synthesis of nanostructured alumina. Moreover, some of these synthesis processes may generate large masses of salt by-pr…

N,N′,N′′-Trialkyltriazatriangulenium (R-TATA+) tetrafluoroborate (BF4−) salts form highly ordered thin films directly when spin-cast onto rotating substrates. The homogeneous and crystalline thin films show macroscopic order over centimetres. The crystal structures of the R-TATA·BF4 salts are investigated and compared…
