A multifunctional molecular design of fluorescent discotic liquid crystal (DLC) consisting of a tetraphenylethylene core is reported, which is found to serve as an excellent solid-state emitter in OLED devices with EQE of 4.4% and tunable mechanochromism.

A new series of C3-symmetric, π-conjugated molecules was designed, synthesized and characterized. The materials were derived from electron-accepting s-triazine, appended covalently to electron-donating styrylbenzene arms, and were readily prepared in excellent yield with high purity by means of three-fold condensation of triphosphonate with n-alkoxybenzaldehydes under Horner–Wadsworth–Emmons reaction conditions. Examination of the phase transitional properties by several complementary techniques evidenced self-assembly into a hexagonal columnar phase, occurring over wide and reasonable thermal ranges. The photophysical properties were studied both in solution and in the fluid/frozen columnar states by UV/Vis absorption and photoluminescence spectroscopy. The emission spectra obtained as a function of the temperature rule out the breaking-up of larger columns and a non-radiative, thermally activated process. A study carried out on thin films of the glassy columnar state, which accounts for conserved fluorescence, defect-free orientation, and freezing ionic species, with the help of atomic force microscopy (AFM) images, suggested a homogeneous granular morphology comprising fibrillar structures. Dissimilarities in the surface morphology and birefringence of thin films of the solid and frozen columnar states were clearly shown by Raman spectroscopy. An electrochemical investigation revealed a LUMO energy of ?4.0 eV. Thus, the discotic motifs presented herein meet certain criteria of organic materials, which are essential for developing electronic devices.

The synthesis and mesomorphic properties of forty substituted aroylhydrazones with peripheral mono-, di- and tri- alkoxy chains derived from a p-amino aroylhydrazone core are described. The compounds with two side chains exhibited a smectic A phase, while the compounds with six soft alkoxy side chains at symmetrical positions formed a rectangular columnar mesophase. The structures of these mesophases were confirmed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis, polarized optical microscopy (POM) and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies. Raman studies with the help of density functional theory on some of the mesogenic members have been performed to understand the changes in the intermolecular interactions during phase transitions. A structure-property relationship has been deduced, and mesogenic properties are found to be dependent on the chain length, density and position of the alkoxy chains around the molecular core.
