β-Amino triphenylenes can be accessed via palladium catalyzed amination of the corresponding triflate using benzophenone imine. Transformation of amine 6 to benzoyl amide 18 is also straightforward, and its wide mesophase range demonstrates that the new linkage supports columnar liquid crystal formation. Amine 6 also undergoes clean aerobic oxidation to give a new twinned structure linked through an electron-poor pyrazine ring. The new discotic liquid crystal motif contains donor and acceptor fragments and is more oval in shape rather than disk-like. It forms a wide range columnar mesophase. Absorption spectra are strong and broad; emission is also broad and occurs with a Stokes shift of ca. 0.7 eV, indicative of charge-transfer character.
