Date Aug. 14, 1997The compounds of the formula (I) wherein each symbol is as defined in the specification, pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof and pharmaceutical use thereof. The Compound (I) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof of the present invention selectively act on cannabinoid receptors, particularly peripheral receptors, cause less side effects on the central system, and have superior immunoregulating action, antiinflammatory action, antiallergic action and therapeutic effect on nephritis. Therefore, they are useful as cannabinoid receptor, particularly peripheral cannabinoid receptor activators and antagonists, immunoregulators, therapeutic agents for autoimmune diseases, antiinflammatory agents, antiallergic agents and therapeutic agents for nephritis.
The synthesis and mesomorphism of di-, tetra- and hexa-catenar liquid crystals based on 2,2′-bipyridine

2,2′-Bipyridines are known to coordinate to a wide variety of metal centres. In this paper, liquid-crystalline two-chained (dicatenar), four-chained (tetracatenar) and six-chained (hexacatenar) bipyridines are synthesised and their mesomorphism is described. For the tetracatenar bipyridines, a full homologous series, from tetramethoxy to tetratetradecyloxy, was synthesised, and the phase diagram showed a classic progression from nematic and smectic C phases at short chain length, through a cubic phase to a columnar phase.

Influence of lateral alkoxy substitution on mesomorphic properties of copper complexes

, p. 335 - 343 (2007/10/02)
Coordination complexes between copper and some lateral alkoxy chain-substituted N-(4-(4'-alkoxybenzoyloxy)salicylidene)-4-n-butylaniline have been synthesized.The lateral chain was introduced on the outer ring bearing the ester function.In the case of a 3,4-disubstitution, the mesomorphic behavior is related to the number of carbons in the terminal chain.If this is too small, the mesomorphic properties of the complexes disappear.In contrast, copper complexes are liquid crystalline and show more ordered phases by comparison with the free ligand.In case of a 2,4-disubstitution, the phases are nematic and the clearing temperatures are near room temperature, but the observed phases are essentially monotropic for the ligands, as well as for the complexes.Keywords: nematic / copper complex / lateral substitution / Schiff base
