Turkish Journal of Chemistry
A series of dimeric unsymmetrical liquid crystals derived from heterocyclic 1,3-dimethylbarbituric acid exhibiting smectic A and nematic phase are reported. All compounds were prepared by the condensation of 4'-(R-(4-formylphenoxy)butoxy)biphenyl-4-carboxylate with 1,3-dimethylbarbituric acid in ethanol. The mesomorphic properties were investigated by DSC and POM, where the type of phase depends on the length of spacer alkoxy chains and the length of the terminal chain. While the SmA phase was observed upon the heating and cooling run when the spacer alkoxy chains carbon numbers increased (n = 6), the N phase was observed when the length of spacer alkoxy chains increased (n …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Three new polysubstituted isoindole-1,3-diones were prepared from 2-ethyl-5-hydroxy-3a,4,5,7a-tetrahydro-isoindole-1,3-dione. The reaction of 2-ethyl-5-hydroxy-3a,4,5,7a-tetrahydro-isoindole-1,3-dione with m-CPBA gave the corresponding epoxide. The triacetate derivative was obtained via cis-hydroxylation using OsO_4, followed by acetylation. An aromatic derivative, a secondary reaction product, was also formed during the acetylation. Finally, a tricyclic derivative from 2-ethyl-5-hydroxy-3a,4,5,7a-tetrahydro-isoindole-1,3-dione was synthesized via dichloroketene addition under microwave irradiation. The exact structures of epoxide and tricyclic derivatives were determined by X-ray diffraction analysis.
