Synthesis and Properties of a New Family of Chiral Mesogens Containing the 2,3-Dihydrobenzopyran Nucleus
摘要:
A new class of mesogens A with a central chiral core based on the 2,3-dihydrobenzopyran nucleus was synthesized both in the racemic and optically pure form, and the thermotropic properties were studied. The distortion from structural linearity due to the presence of the 2,3-dihydropyran ring does not inhibit the existence of mesophases, and Ch, S-A, and S-C phases were observed according to the substituents present. The conformational constrictions imposed by cyclization proved not to be very important in determining the compactness of the cholesteric helix.

2-alkylchromans, as well as an azachroman derivative. The asymmetric version of this approach via a Noyori-catalyzed ketone reduction and subsequent cyclization is likewise highlighted. A convergent three-step method for the synthesis of 2-substituted chromans is described. These results have been accomplished via the Heck coupling of readily accessible allylic alcohols and 2-iodophenols, followed by reduction and
