Novel chiral amino acid derived ionic liquid crystals with amine and amide moieties as spacers between the imidazolium head group and the alkyl chain were synthesised. The key step in the synthesis utilised the relatively uncommon SO3 leaving group in a microwave-assisted reaction. The mesomorphic properties of the mesogens were determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), polarising optical microscopy (POM) and X-ray diffraction. All liquid crystalline salts exhibit a smecticA mesophase geometry with strongly interdigitated bilayer structures. An increase of the steric bulk of the stereogenic centre hindered the formation of mesophases. In case of phenylalanine-derived derivatives a mesomorphic behaviour was observed for shorter alkyl chains as compared to other amino acid derivatives indicating an additional stabilising effect by the phenyl moiety. Ionic liquid crystals from amino acids: Novel chiral amino acid derived imidazolium salts with amine or amide units were prepared through the sulfamidate. Depending on the steric bulk of the R group, the chain lengths and the type of anion X, stable SmA phases were detected (see scheme; Bn=benzyl). Copyright

Compounds of the formula STR1 or a non-toxic acid addition salt thereof wherein R1 is alkyl of from 1 to 20 carbon atoms; R2 is alkyl of from 12 to 20 carbon atoms; R3 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and hydroxyalkyl of from 2 to 8 carbon atoms; and R4 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl of from 1 to 8 carbon atoms and hydroxyalkyl of from 2 to 8 carbon atoms, said compounds are useful for combating viral infections in vertebrate animals.
