    Abstract: An aromatic or aromatic-like group(s) containing lubricant configured to be adsorbed by a magnetic recording media is formed from


    (Ar)m(R1oRfR2p)q

    where Ar is an aromatic group, polyaromatic hydrocarbon (PAH), annulene, cycloalkane or heterocycle, m=1-10, R1 and R2 are moieties containing first and second polar groups, respectively, Rf is a perfluorinated polyether, o=1-10, p=0-10, and q=1-10. The first or second polar group may independently be hydroxyl, phosphonic acid, silanol or carboxylic acid. In an embodiment, the lubricant has the formula:




    where Ar is a system form d from a PAH, armulene, cycloalkane or heterocycle, X, Y and Z can independently be hydroxyl, a phosphonic acid moiety, a silanol or a carboxylic acid moiety, and where Rf may be CF2O(CF2CF2)nCF2— where n is 1 to 100. Synthesizing the lubricant may entail reacting parabromophenol with (Ar)m(R1oRfR2p)q.
