A butterfly-shaped diphenylpyrimidine molecule (DPP-6C12) was synthesized by covalently attaching two tridodecyl benzoate tails (6C12) at the both sides of the diphenylpyrimidine (DPP) moiety. Unique phase transition behaviors of DPP-6C12 and their origins were investigated with the combined techniques of thermal, scattering, spectroscopic, and microscopic analyses. On the basis of the experimental results and analyses, it was realized that a butterfly-shaped DPP-6C12 formed three ordered phases: a plastic crystal phase (PK), a crystal phase (K), and a liquid crystal phase (Φ).
