Induction of a Columnar Liquid Crystal Phase at Low Temperature by Replacing Stearyl Groups with Oleyl Groups in a Discoid Molecule, and Efficient Chiral Amplification in the Liquid Crystal Phase

Replacement of stearyl groups with oleyl groups in a discoid molecule induced a rectangular columnar phase at low temper-ature. Although the molecule has no hydrogen bonding sites, the induced liquid crystal phase showed a highly efficient chiral amplification. The helical packing structure was post...

Summary:Replacement of stearyl groups with oleyl groups in a discoid molecule induced a rectangular columnar phase at low temper-ature. Although the molecule has no hydrogen bonding sites, the induced liquid crystal phase showed a highly efficient chiral amplification. The helical packing structure was postulated based on its X-ray diffraction profile and circular dichroism spectra.
