A series of cyanobiphenyl (CB) and cyano-p-terphenyl (CT) derivatives containing a variety of highly fluorinated aryloxyl termini and different connecting bridges were efficiently synthesized via aromatic nucleophilic substitution (SNAr) and their mesogenic properties described. Comparison with the non-fluorinated analogs indicates that the terminal multifluoroaryloxy group generally decreases the crystal to nematic phase transistion temperature and enhances the supercooling of these mesogens. Furthermore, several binary LC mixtures formed by the multifluoroaryloxy tail-terminated compounds were found exhibiting promising wide room temperature nematic phases ranges comparable to the com. quaternary mixture E7. Authors’ binding free energy (GBE) calculations predict that the fluorinated aryloxy terminated mols. tend to assume homeotropic orientation on Al(ClO4)3 and Ni(ClO4)2 metal salt decorated surfaces, which is consistent with the observed anchoring behavior. As such, these materials are promising candidates for chemoresponsive sensor devices which display a rapid response to a variety of analytes. This study involved multiple reactions and reactants, such as 2,3,4,5,6-Perfluoropyridine (cas: 700-16-3Synthetic Route of C5F5N).
2,3,4,5,6-Perfluoropyridine (cas: 700-16-3) belongs to pyridine derivatives. Pyridine has a dipole moment and a weaker resonant stabilization than benzene (resonance energy 117 kJ路mol鈭? in pyridine vs. 150 kJ路mol鈭? in benzene). Reduced pyridines, namely tetrahydropyridines, dihydropyridines and piperidines, are found in numerous natural and synthetic compounds. The synthesis and reactivity of these compounds have often been driven by the fact many of these compounds have interesting and unique pharmacological properties. Synthetic Route of C5F5N
