Liquid Crystalline Triptycene Derivatives
Norvez, Sophie
, p. 2414 - 2418 (1993)
A route to triptycenes substituted with one, two, five, and six paraffinic chains was developed using the Diels-Alder reaction as the key reaction. 1,4,5,8-Tetrakis(dodecyloxy)-11-hydroxy-14-(dodecanoyloxy)triptycene, 1,4,5,8-tetrakis(dodecyloxy)-11,14-bis(dodecanoyloxy)triptycene, and 1,4,5,8,11,14-hexakis(dodecyloxy)triptycene were obtained in a nine-step procedure starting from diaminoanthrarufin.The five-chain derivative demonstrates original mesomorphic properties.
