Generation of liquid crystallinity from a Td-symmetry central unit

A series of new columnar liquid crystals containing an adamantane central unit with its four bridgehead positions partially or fully decorated with different numbers (1-4) of 3,4,5-tris(dodecyloxy)phenyl carbamoyl groups were designed and investigated carefully to explore the structure-property correlations. The molecular structures and mesomorphic properties of the DLCs were characterized by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, IR, UV-vis, POM, DSC and XRD. It was found that the mesophase symmetry and thermal stability were extremely dependent on the structures of the adamantane derivatives. No mesophase was observed for the 1-adamantanecarboxylic acid derivative ADLC1, while two different mesophases were observed for ADLC2, a 1,3-disubstituted derivative functionalized with two 3,4,5-tris(dodecyloxy)phenyl carbamoyl groups at two symmetric bridgehead positions. At lower temperature ADLC2 exhibited a rectangular columnar phase, which switched to a square columnar phase possessing a wide temperature range. Similarly, a hexagonal columnar mesophase was observed for the bridgehead trisubstituted adamantane molecule ADLC3. Interestingly, the fully bridgehead-functionalized 1,3,5,7-tetrasubstituted adamantane compound ADLC4 completely lost liquid crystallinity.

Heterocoronene, a new redox-active core fragment, is utilized for the synthesis of room-temperature columnar discotic liquid crystals (DLCs). Three wedge-shaped side chains having different lengths of alkyl tails are introduced at the periphery of the het
Self-assembly and solid-state polymerization of butadiyne derivatives with amide and trialkoxyphenyl groups

Three butadiyne derivatives with amide and tri(dodecyloxy)-phenyl (TDP) groups were synthesized, and four solidification methods were applied to obtain their self-assembling states in various conditions. The solids obtained were characterized by the solid-state polymerization behaviors, stretching vibration wavenumbers of N-H bonds of amide groups, powder X-ray diffraction, the thermal behaviors, and scanning electron microscope (SEM) observations. We found that all compounds had at least two polymorphs. Property differences between two polymorphs depended on the compounds. Two compounds showed clear differences in UV-vis spectra of the photo-polymerized solids, i.e., the polydiacetylene (PDA) structure, and irregularly polymerized form, or two PDA structures. The remaining compound showed the same PDA absorption but the monomer melting points were different. All compounds gave the gels in various organic solvents because of the molecular design with amide and TDP groups. SEM observation clarified the relationship between gel appearance and the nanostructures.
