Effect of Heteroatoms in the Side Chains of Disklike Molecules on the Formation of Discotic Liquid Crystalline Phases

Incorporation of oxygen and sulfur atoms into the side chains of discotic liquid crystals generally results in a depression of both the crystal to discotic and discotic to isotropic transition temperatures relative to the n-alkyl analogue.In contrast, replacement of the methylenes in side-chain positions 4 of 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexakis(alkanoyloxy)triphenylenes increases the clearing (M-I) temperature from 120 to 200 deg C.This effect is specific for sulfur substitution, to the triphenylene series, and to the 4-position.It is not expected, based on a simple model for discotic-phase formation.

A new family of liquid crystalline (discotic) hexaesters, hexakisbenzene (4*On, 2 n 7), hexakisbenzene (4*S3), or hexakisbenzene (5), was prepared from hexahydr
