A facile synthetic route affording polycondensable monomers containing alkyl chains connected to a rigid aromatic core allowing chain folding was developed. The stepwise condensation of the monomer was shown to afford dimer, tetramer and was further proved to be applicable to higher oligomers. Such oligomers composed of 'tinker toy' building blocks may be of interest for inducing controlled conformations in nanostructured materials.
