合成了两个等轴系列的5-烷氧基-2-(4-烷氧基苯基)嘧啶类液晶基元QL 8-m/n和QL 9-m/n(m + n = 16),其端氯烷氧基链分别连接在嘧啶环或苯环上,并通过偏光显微镜和差示扫描量热法对其液晶性能进行了表征.基于对介晶性质的分析和在B3 LYP/6- 31 G * 水平上计算的静电势等值面的相关性,我们提出的证据表明,氯端基的SmA促进作用不是由于在层界面处的强极性相互作用,如先前在文献中假设的。相反,证据表明,SmA促进作用是由于氯端基的吸电子作用,这应该减少烷氧基链之间的静电排斥,因此,增加正交SmA相的芳香族核之间的货车德瓦尔斯相互作用。
Two isometric series of chloro-terminated 5-alkoxy-2-(4-alkoxyphenyl)pyrimidine mesogens QL8-m/n and QL9-m/n (m + n = 16), with the chloro-terminated alkoxy chain tethered to either the pyrimidine ring or the phenyl ring, were synthesized and their liquid crystalline properties characterized by polarized optical microscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. Based on the analysis of mesogenic properties and correlations to electrostatic potential isosurfaces calculated at the B3LYP/6-31G* level, we present evidence suggesting that the SmA-promoting effect of chloro end-groups is not due to strong polar interactions at the layer interfaces, as previously postulated in the literature. Instead, the evidence suggests that the SmA-promoting effect is due to the electron-withdrawing effect of the chloro end-group, which should reduce electrostatic repulsion between alkoxy chains and, consequently, increase van der Waals interactions between aromatic cores in the orthogonal SmA phase.
