Synthesis of 3-arylmuconolactones using biphenyl metabolism in Aspergillus
Mobley,Finkbeiner,Lockwood,Spivack
, p. 3273 - 3280 (1993)
Strains of the fungus Aspergillus form 3-arylmuconolactones as secondary products of the metabolism of biphenyl and substituted biphenyls. The 3-arylmuconolactones are not found to support growth and can accumulate to significant concentrations. The metabolic pathway leading from hydroxylated biphenyls to lactones appears to proceed through 3,4-catechol intermediates.

In addition, R2 and m in General Formula (1) may be identical to or different from R2 and m in General Formula (2), respectively.) (In the formula, each R1 independently represents an alkyl group, alkoxy group, aromatic hydrocarbon group, halogen atom, or hydroxyl group, while n indicates 0 or an integer of 1 to 4, where R1's may be identical or different when n is 2 or greater.) Step (A): Step to obtain a 1,1,3-trisphenol by causing the 2-cyclohexene-1-one or 3-hydroxycyclohexane-1-one and phenol to react with each other in the presence of a catalyst. Step (B): Step to obtain a bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)cyclohexene by causing the 1,1,3-trisphenol to undergo breakdown reaction. Step (C): Step to obtain a 4,4 -dihydroxy-m-terphenyl by dehydrogenating the bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)cyclohexene. Step (D): Step to obtain a bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)cyclohexene by causing the 2-cyclohexene-1-one or 3-hydroxycyclohexane-1-one and phenol to react with each other in the presence of a catalyst. (In the formula, each R1 and n is independently the same as the corresponding items in General Formula (3), respectively, while R2 and m are the same as the corresponding items in General Formula (1) or General Formula (2), respectively.)

Molecular design of nonchiral bent-core liquid crystals with antiferroelectric properties

, p. 1593 - 1601 (2007/10/03)
Novel bent-core (banana-shaped) liquid crystals without Schiff-base units have been synthesized and investigated by polarized light optical microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray scattering, and electrooptical investigations. These molecules are 4-(4- alkylbenzoyloxy)benzoates and 4-(4-alkoxybenzoyloxy)benzoates of resorcinol, 3,4'-dihydroxybiphenyl, and 4,4'-dihydroxy- 1,1':3', 1'-terphenyl. Three different mesophases were found depending on the molecular structure and the length of the terminal alkyl chains: a rectangular columnar phase, a highly ordered low-temperature mesophase, and an antiferroelectric switchable fluid smectic mesophase designated as SmCP(A). The influence of the molecular structure on the occurrence of the SmCP(A) phase was investigated. The spontaneous polarization of these molecules is quite high (P(s) = 500700 nC cm-2) and specially those molecules with long alkyl chains and short bent- core structures have low melting points and broad regions of this switchable mesophase. Furthermore, first examples of antiferroelectric switchable bent- core molecules with semifluorinated terminal chains will be described.
