A series of self-organizing bent-core derivatives 1[12,n], containing a highly π-delocalized stable radical as the central angular structural element, is described. The planarity of the open-shell core permits efficient π-π stacking, which results in the formation of B2 and soft crystalline phases above 100 °C. Optical, XRD and dielectric analyses of 1[12,12] indicate that the ground state of the observed B2 phase is polar antiferroelectric of type SmCAPA exhibiting tristable electro-optical switching. SQUID and EPR measurements revealed strong antiferromagnetic spin-spin exchange interactions below the isotropic phase, which have been estimated at θ = -46 cm-1 with the Curie-Weiss law. Transient photoconductivity was observed in the B2 phase with a hole carrier mobility μh of 1.4 × 10-4 cm2 V-1 s-1

Two homologous series based on three linking groups have been synthesized and well characterized by elemental analyses and spectroscopic techniques such as Fourier transform infrared [FT-IR] and proton magnetic resonance magnetic resonance [1H NMR] spectroscopy. The mesomorphic properties of these compounds were observed by using optical polarized microscopy (POM) and confirmed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis. In this present investigation, we have synthesized two homologous series viz. (E)-4-(3-(4-(tetra decanoyloxy) phenyl) acryloyl) phenyl-4-n-alkoxy benzoate (Series-1) and 4-((E)-3-(4-(((E)-3-(4-n-alkoxy phenyl) acryloyl) oxy) phenyl)-3-oxo prop-1-en-1-yl) phenyl tetradecanoate (Series-2). Both of the series are differing with respect to the first linking group. All the homologous in following series displays LC properties on heating as well as cooling condition except first four homologous (C1 to C4) in series-1 and six homologous (C1 to C6) in series-2. To get more insights, the HOMO, LUMO studies are carried out which supports intramolecular charge transfer interactions in this class of mesogens.

The synthesis of a series of symmetrical liquid crystals having naphthalene as the central rigid core and attached to long chain flexible 4′-alkoxybenzoate moiety at positions 2,6 - of the aromatic ring are reported. The mesophase behavior of the molecules was investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), polarizing optical microscopy (POM) and X-ray diffraction studies. The studies reveal that the synthesized compounds exhibit stable enantiotropic mesophase of Smectic A (SmA) and Nematic (N) phase. The mesophase appearance is independent of the length of the alkyl chain. The molecular structure was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction technique. The derivative with n-heptyloxy- flexible chain crystallizes under triclinic, P1ˉspace group with unit cell dimension a = 5.569(3) ? b = 10.540(5) ? c = 15.254(9) ? α = 73.434(18)o, β = 80.807(19)o and γ = 82.02(2)o, V = 843.1(8) ?3. The dihedral angle between the naphthalene ring system and the benzoate moiety is 63.63(2)o.
