A new class of discotic mesogens derived from tris(N-salicylideneaniline)s existing in C3h and Cs keto-enamine forms
(Chemical Equation Presented) Two series of a unique class of columnar liquid crystals derived from tris(N-salicylideneaniline)s [TSANs] in which the proton and the electron interact with each other through the H-bonding environment are reported. The synt

Mesomorphic dithiooxamide complexes of platinum(II)
Complexation of non-mesomorphic dithiooxamide ligands to Pt(II) leads to square planar complexes which exhibit mesomorphic properties. The synthesis of these complex was accomplished in three steps: the formation of bisamides, starting from conveniently s
Liquid crystalline properties of bis (salicylaldiminato) copper (II) complexes: The first columnar discotics derived from salicylaldimine Schiff bases
The synthesis and mesomorphic properties of a homologous series of N-(2-hydroxy-4-n-alkoxybenzylidene)-3′,4′-di-n-alkoxylanilines and their copper(II) complexes bis[(N-3′,4′-dialkoxyphenyl)-4-n-alkoxylsalicylaldiminato]copper(II) are reported. The disc-li
