Popis: | The game of molecular engineering of liquid crystalline systems via a combination of molecular architecture and functionalization of mesogens has opened interesting perspectives in the field of liquid crystals. Here we report on the synthesis and characterization of star-like heptameric triphenylenes. The discotic subunits in these molecules have been arranged in a hexagonal fashion around a central discotic core, thus leading to a new type of molecular arrangement for discotic liquid crystals. These oligomers do not crystallize and combine a well-defined structure with a discotic polymer-like processing. |
