Changes of the molecular arrangenemt that can be induced by means of the LB technique in the multilayers of a disc-shaped multialkynyl amphiphile are monitored by means of small angle X-ray diffraction. Studies of the monolayers at the air-water interface reveal "edge-on" orientation of the discs. Specific effects of the counter- ions (Na+, Cd²+, Pb²+, and Ba²+) and sub-solution pH on the monolayer collapse pressure, transfer efficiency and molecular order in the multilayers are found. A correlation between the monolayer properties and the ability for formation of periodic discotic structures in the presence of divalent counterions is established. The discotic molecules retain their "edge-on" arrangement in the highly compressed transferred films with slight irregular interdigtation of the flexible wings and inclination to the substrate normal. The tilt and the inter- digitation are reduced when the discotic monolayers are deposited in alternating LB films with barium arachidate spacer layers.
