A functional C 3 ‐symmetric benzene‐1,3,5‐tricarboxamide‐anchored diarylethene molecule (C 3 ‐BTE) is synthesized, which evolves into ordered superstructures with tunable morphology properties both in different solvents and via alternative light stimuli. The formation of rod‐like assemblies from C 3 ‐BTE is reported and the self‐assembly property of C 3 ‐BTE can be realized through alternative light stimuli in nonpolar solvents such as toluene.
