چکیده

New, halogen-bonded fluorinated mesogens are reported; the expected microphase separation associated with perfluoroalkyl chains is surprisingly absent in the mesophase.

Trimeric liquid crystals assembled using both hydrogen and halogen bonding.

New liquid crystals are reported that are formed from non-mesomorphic components assembled using both halogen and hydrogen bonding.

Photoresponsive liquid crystals based on halogen bonding of azopyridines.

A series of photoresponsive halogen-bonded liquid crystals (LCs) were successfully constructed using molecular halogen and azopyridine compounds, which show interesting properties of photoinduced phase transition upon UV irradiation. In addition, bromine-bonded LCs were first obtained with high mesophase stability.

Efficient Light-Induced Phase Transitions in Halogen-Bonded Liquid Crystals

Here, we present a new family of light-responsive, fluorinated supramolecular liquid crystals (LCs) showing efficient and reversible light-induced LC-to-isotropic phase transitions. Our materials design is based on fluorinated azobenzenes, where the fluorination serves to strengthen the noncovalent interaction with bond-accepting stilbazole molecules, and increase the lifetime of the cis-form o...

The Halogen Bond in the Design of Functional Supramolecular Materials: Recent Advances

Halogen bonding is an emerging noncovalent interaction for constructing supramolecular assemblies. Though similar to the more familiar hydrogen bonding, four primary differences between these two interactions make halogen bonding a unique tool for molecular recognition and the design of functional materials. First, halogen bonds tend to be much more directional than (single) hydrogen bonds. Sec...

Two-dimensional bricklayer arrangements of tolans using halogen bonding interactions.

Diphenylacetylene (tolan) derivatives with self-complementary aryl halides and halogen bond-accepting nitriles form 2D bricklayer packing motifs when halogen bonding occurs. When halogen bonding is absent, as occurred with fluorinated aryl bromides, the molecules adopt other packing motifs. These results suggest halogen bonding is potentially useful for producing rarely observed 2D bricklayer m...
