Abstract

The novel calixarene-linked discotic triphenylene 5a and 5b were synthesized in good yields via click chemistry. Structural and conformational characterization of new compounds had been achieved by NMR, MS, and elemental analysis. Their liquid crystalline behaviors before and after complexation were studied by polarizing optical microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and X-ray diffraction. The neat compounds 5a and 5b showed mesophase but the complexes of 5a and 5b with metallic salts exhibited no liquid crystal behaviors.
