The first neutral spin carrying hexabenzocoronene (HBC) derivative is described. The conjugated phenyl nitroxide substituted HBC with five alkyl chains exhibits a positive magneto-LC effect in columnar hexagonal liquid crystalline phase as probed by differential scanning calorimetry and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. Surprisingly, at 140 K the ΔMS = 2 transition can be observed indicating a thermally accessible triplet state between the neighboring molecules in the columnar arrangements.
首次描述了具有中性自旋的六苯并蒄(HBC)衍生物。带有五个烷基链的共轭苯基氮氧自由基取代的 HBC 在柱状六方液晶相中表现出正磁致 LC 效应,这可通过差示扫描量热法和电子顺磁共振波谱法来探测。令人惊讶的是,在 140 K 时可以观察到ΔMS=2 跃迁,表明在柱状排列的相邻分子之间存在热可及的三重态。
