Patent ID: 8530136

Claim:
A phenolic molecular glass having at least one fluoroalcohol containing unit, wherein the phenolic molecular glass is a calix[4]resorcinarene of structural formula (I): wherein R′ comprises the at least one fluoroalcohol containing unit, R is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and an acid labile functional group, and X and Y are each independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxy, aryl, aralkyl, alkaryl, halo, cyano, nitro and carboxylate, and wherein the at least one fluoroalcohol containing unit is of the structural formula (II): wherein R 1 is a linear or branched alkylene group, a substituted or unsubstituted alicyclic group, a substituted or unsubstituted arylene group, a substituted or unsubstituted heteroarylene group, a substituted or unsubstituted heterocyclic group; R 2 and are R 3 are each independently a fluorinated alkyl group.
