Blue phases (BPs) have received considerable attention as light shutters in the next generation of liquid crystal (LC) displays. However, no simple and efficient chiral dopant for induction of BPs of commercially available rodlike LC compounds has been re

A new rod-like homologous series consisting twelve compounds with central ester linkage and terminal tert-butyl group, tert-butyl [4-(4’-n-alkoxybenzoyloxy)benzoates] has been synthesized and characterized through standard spectroscopic techniques like UV, FT-IR, 1HNMR, DSC, POM, and XRD. Methoxy and ethoxy derivatives are nonmesogenic. Nematic mesophase commences as enantiotropy from propyloxy derivative and persists up to the octadecyloxy derivatives. Smectic A mesophase commences as monotropy from propyloxy to the octadecyloxy derivatives. The mesomorphic properties of present series are compared with other structurally related series to evaluate the effect of terminal tert-butyl group on mesomorphism. Two derivatives are subjected to in?vitro antimicrobial activity.

Mincle, expressed in activated phagocytes, recognizes the lipid ligand to activate the innate immune system. We have synthesized glycerol derivatives possessing simple alkyl chains or aromatic rings and elucidated their structure-activity relationships us
