Title: | Side-chain shuffling: regioselective synthesis of mixed tail discotic mesogens |
Abstract: | A procedure for the regioselective synthesis of discotic mesogens bearingmultiple side chains of different lengths is reported. A series of isomeric dibenzoquinoxaline mesogens obtained by this route showed phase behaviour that was highly sensitive to chain location. |
