Monodispersive Linear Supermolecules Stabilizing Unusual Fluid Layered Phases
摘要:
The first examples of monodisperse liquid crystalline pentamers, synthesized by covalently linking five mesogenic segments through four flexible spacers, exhibiting mono-/partially bilayered phases with unusual textures, as established by optical, calorimetric, and X-ray diffraction studies, are reported. Importantly, the two types of multifunctional pentamers, namely, unsymmetric and C-2 symmetric are soluble in organic solvents and exhibit analogous electrochemical features.
