4-Cyanoresorcinol based bent-core compounds combining one branched chiral with one achiral linear end-chain have been synthesized in enatiomerically pure and one compound also in racemic form. All homochiral compounds form a chiral cybotactic nematic phase at relatively low temperature with a selective reflection ranging from the near IR to near UV. For the compound with the longest chains superparaelectric and antiferroelectric switching smectic phases were observed, whereas the corresponding racemate is non-polar. This is attributed to sterically induced polarization by the denser packing of uniform enantiomers due to chirality synchronization of the helical conformers. For the racemic mixture this chirality synchronization requires additional surface stabilization. There are unprecedented effects of an applied magnetic field (1 T) on the LC phases, leading to a layer shrinkage by 6-13% for the enantiomer and a layer expansion by 5-8% for the racemate. It is proposed that the magnetic field couples with the π-systems of the almost rod-like molecules. For the racemate this increases the core order, whereas for the enantiomer the reduction of the heliconical twist is considered to provide the major effect. These magnetic field effects could lead to new applications of chiral LC materials at the cross-over between rod-like and bent shapes.

The present invention provides a protected nucleotide for elongation, which can be purified efficiently and in a high yield by a liquid-liquid extraction operation, and can achieve an oligonucleotide production method by a phosphoramidite method. It has been found that the above-mentioned problem can be solved by a particular oligonucleotide comprising a protected base and/or particular oligonucleotide protected by a branched chain-containing aromatic group at 3'-position.

Biphenyl-3,4′-diol derived bent-core compounds with branched side chains have been synthesized and characterized to study the influence of terminal branched groups on mesophase properties and transition temperatures of bent-core mesogens. The liquid crystalline properties of the compounds were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry, optical polarizing microscopy and X-ray scattering. Depending on the length of the chain, the size of molecular branches and the position of branched chains, either enantiotropic or monotropic rectangular columnar phases were observed. For one of the compounds combining two different branched side chains, a new type of optically isotropic dark conglomerate phase (MIso[*]) was found. It is proposed to be a distorted version of a non-tilted or only slightly tilted B6-like intercalated smectic phase with additional in plane order.
