Steering the Conformation and Chiroptical Properties of Poly(dithienopyrrole)s Substituted with Chiral OPV Side Chains.
摘要:
This manuscript discusses the conformation and chiroptical properties of poly(dithienopyrrole)s (PDTPs), Substituted with oligo(phenylenevinylene) (OPV) side chains and the influence of the substitution of the OPV moiety on these features. The OPV side chains were equipped with gallic acid moieties in order to promote the formation of a helical conformation in poor solvents. The polymers were prepared by Stille-couplings and characterized by GPC and NMR, UV-vis, CID, and emission spectroscopy. It was found that OPV-PDTPs, solely equipped with (chiral) alkyl groups at the terminal gallic acid group, show a very strong tendency to adopt a helical conformation, but no resolution or the mixture of helices and therefore no chiral expression. Additional substitution of the allows for a discrimination of the mixture of lielical senses. In this way, the OPV side chains can bechirally organized by the helical PDTP backbone. Substitution of the OPV in a-position, however, sterically excludes the possibility to adopt a helical conformation, but results in a lamellar supramolecular Structure in poor solvents. The macromolecular behavior is explained in terms of space confinement and sieric hindrance in the respective Structures.
Technologically promising, room temperature luminescent columnar liquid crystals derived from s-triazine core: molecular design, synthesis and characterization
摘要:
Three fold Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons (HWS) reaction of triphosphonate with achiral/chiral 3,4,5-tris(alkoxy)benzaldehydes yield novel achiral/chiral star-shaped liquid crystals (LCs), in which three fluorophore arms such as 1,2,3-tris(alkoxy)-5-styrylbenzenes are tethered to a central s-triazine core. These LCs, the first of their kind, display a columnar liquid crystalline phase over a wide temperature range existing between well below and above the room temperature, which is evidenced by optical and calorimetric studies. Besides, they show photoluminescence both in solution and mesomorphic states. Thus, given their self-organization into fluid one-dimensional columnar array coupled with light generating capability, these organic ordered-fluids can be regarded as novel media for advanced technological applications.

novel supramolecularliquidcrystals. The mesogens are fluorescent 3,5‐dimethyl‐4‐(di or trialkoxyphenyl)pyrazoles and, in spite of the tapered shape of these molecules and their structural simplicity (only one phenyl ring), columnar liquid‐crystal phases were formed that are stable at room temperature. The self‐assembled structure was studied by XRD and the columnar cross section contains two molecules
binding interactions that govern the self-assembly direction, resulting in positively charged columnar assemblies. The obtained columnar structures are controlled by the self-adjustment process inherent in the specific aromatic cation-π binding modes. We characterize the transition from alternate overlapping to helical stacking, which ultimately yields thermodynamically favorable columnar polymorphism

A dendrimer having phenylene vinylene and phenylene ethynylene moieties, a twisted core, and eighteen chiral centers on the periphery has been prepared in high yield by using Sonogashira and Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons reactions. UV-visible and fluorescence spectra and circular dichroism measurements have been envisaged to study the aggregation behavior. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
