Herein, we have reported the alkyl and alkoxy phenylacetylene containing phenazine fused triphenylene discotic liquid crystals (DLCs) which are obtained by the condensation reaction of triphenylene-1,2-diquinone with 1,2-diamino-4,5-dibromobenzene, followed by Sonogashira C–C coupling reaction with 4-alkyl-phenylacetylene or 4-alkoxy-phenylacetylene. Six novel derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their thermal and optical properties. They show a broad range of hexagonal columnar phase and retain their mesophase up to room temperature upon cooling from the isotropic liquid. Thermotropic liquid crystalline properties of all the compounds were studied by polarised optical microscopy (POM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The self-assembly of mesophase structure was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies. Thermogravimetric analysis of all the mesogens shows good thermal stability over a broad temperature range. The photophysical properties of newly synthesized compounds were measured using UV–Vis absorption and photoluminescence emission spectroscopy in anhydrous chloroform solvent. The π-extended conjugation in these mesogens exhibit strong absorption bands falling around 270–487 nm and corresponding emission band at 657–663 nm respectively. The high delocalization of π– electrons in extended discotic mesogens show high nonlinear optical properties when measured under excitation by nanosecond laser pulses at 532 nm. These materials may find distinctive applications in the semiconducting devices.

Lipoxygenases (LOXs) and cyclooxygenases (COXs) metabolize poly-unsaturated fatty acids into inflammatory signaling molecules. Modulation of the activity of these enzymes may provide new approaches for therapy of inflammatory diseases. In this study, we screened novel anacardic acid derivatives as modulators of human 5-LOX and COX-2 activity. Interestingly, a novel salicylate derivative 23a was identified as a surprisingly potent activator of human 5-LOX. This compound showed both non-competitive activation towards the human 5-LOX activator adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and non-essential mixed type activation against the substrate linoleic acid, while having no effect on the conversion of the substrate arachidonic acid. The kinetic analysis demonstrated a non-essential activation of the linoleic acid conversion with a KA of 8.65 μM, αKA of 0.38 μM and a β value of 1.76. It is also of interest that a comparable derivative 23d showed a mixed type inhibition for linoleic acid conversion. These observations indicate the presence of an allosteric binding site in human 5-LOX distinct from the ATP binding site. The activatory and inhibitory behavior of 23a and 23d on the conversion of linoleic compared to arachidonic acid are rationalized by docking studies, which suggest that the activator 23a stabilizes linoleic acid binding, whereas the larger inhibitor 23d blocks the enzyme active site.

New candidates composed of anthracene and 4-alkylethynylbenzene end-capped oligomers for OTFTs were synthesized under Sonogashira coupling reaction conditions. All oligomers were characterized by FT-IR, mass, UV-visible, and PL emission spectrum analyses, cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), 1H-NMR, and 13C-NMR. Investigation of their physical properties showed that the oligomers had high oxidation potential and thermal stability. Thin films of DHPEAnt and DDPEAnt were characterized by spin coating them onto Si/SiO 2 to fabricate top-contact OTFTs. The devices prepared using DHPEAnt and DDPEAnt showed hole field-effect mobilities of 4.0 × 10-3 cm2/Vs and 2.0 × 10-3 cm2/Vs, respectively, for solution-processed OTFTs.

The use of discotic nematic liquid crystals instead of calamitic nematic liquid crystals to improve the viewing angle of a liquid crystal display device has recently been reported. Compared to the large number of calamitic molecules showing nematic phase at room temperature, the number of disk-shaped molecules showing subambient discotic nematic phase ND are rare. In this paper we present the design, synthesis, mesomorphic behaviour and structureproperty relationship of discotic nematic liquid crystals based on benzene multiyne core.
