In this work we provide a systematic scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) study on the self-assembling and mixing behavior of Arylene Ethynylene Macrocycles (AEMs) containing 1,4-phenylene, 1,4-naphthylene or 9,10-anthrylene substituents at the solid/liquid interface. The effect of bulky substituents on the self-assembly structure was investigated and we found that 1,4-phenylene ethynylene macrocycle (AEM-B) and 1,4-naphthylene ethynylene macrocycle (AEM-N) form four and three different patterns at the 1,2,4-trichloride benzene (TCB)/graphite interface, respectively, and a significant concentration effect was observed for both molecules. 9,10-anthrylene ethynylene macrocycle (AEM-A) only forms a filled honeycomb structure at relatively high concentrations. The effect of bulky substituents was attributed to the steric hindrance, which hinders full interdigitation of alkoxy chains. The mixing behavior of binary mixtures of arylene ethynylene macrocycles was also investigated at the TCB/HOPG interface. The results demonstrate that the steric hindrance brought by the bulky groups does not enable sufficient recognition between identical molecules at the interface and random mixing was observed for binary mixtures of AEM-B and AEM-N. The mixing behavior of AEMs could also be predicted by the parameter called the 2D isomorphism coefficient.
