In this Letter, we describe the synthesis of two amphiphilic septi(p- phenylene)s. One terminus of each rigid-rod scaffold is linked through a spacer to a hydrophilic IDA-subunit, the two benzenes at the other terminus carry hydrophobic substituents of different size. These synthetic receptor models are expected to mimic biological processes that occur at cell membranes.
