A new series of all-organic liquid-crystalline (LC) chiral radical compounds,trans-1-alkoxyphenyl-4-[(4-(4-alkoxyphenyl)-2,5-dimethylpyrrolidine-1-oxy-2-yl)-benzylideneamino]benzenes (1) with various alkyl chains, containing a chiral nitroxide unit in the mesogen core were synthesized and their LC properties were fully characterized. The enantiomerically enriched compounds (2S,5S)-1 showed N, TGBA, SmA and SmC phases, while the racemates (±)-1 exhibited N, SmA and SmC phases. The phase transition behavior and the ferroelectric properties of the SmC phase of (2S,5S)-1 differed from those of previously reported analogues with an ester group as a substitute for the imino group of (2S,5S)-1. Some of the (2S,5S)-1 series showed a temperature-dependent spontaneous polarization PS (θ) inversion. We discuss the origin of this difference in terms of their molecular structures optimized by molecular orbital calculations. The phase transition behavior supports the hypothesis that the large φ, which is defined as the angle between the molecular long axis (one of the principal axes of inertia) and the direction of the dipole moment in each molecule, results in the stabilization of the SmA (SmA) phase.

Smectic liquid crystals with 'de Vries-like' properties are characterized by a maximum layer contraction of ≤1% upon transition from the orthogonal SmA phase to the tilted SmC phase. We show that binary mixtures of 'de Vries-like' and conventional SmC mesogens with a molecular length ratio of 1.34 undergo a SmA-SmC phase transition with a maximum layer contraction ranging from 1.0 to 1.9% depending on the mixture composition.

Synthesis of nonconjugated dendrons with a redox gradient
Bronk, Krys,Thayumanavan
, p. 5559 - 5567 (2007/10/03)
Macromolecules with built-in redox gradients are of much interest due to their potential in a variety of optoelectronic and energy-harvesting applications. In this paper, the design and synthesis of nonconjugated dendrons with redox gradients to guide the charge flow from the core to the periphery is described. The dendrons reported here are based on benzyl ether connectivities. The repeat units of the dendrons are based on triarylamines, and the periphery units of the dendrons are based on N,N,N′,N′-tetraarylbenzidine units. The presence of a redox gradient after incorporation of these charge-transporting units into the dendrons is supported by cyclic voltammetric studies.
