New liquid crystalline (biphenylcarbonyloxy)benzoates with an achiral swallow-tail derived from 3-alkoxy-2- (alkoxymethyl)-1-propanol [(ROCH2)2CHCH2OH, R = Me, Et, Pr, Bu] were prepared. These liquid crystals exhibited the phase sequence (I-SmA-SmCalt-(SmCX)-Cr) and showed antiferroelectric-like Smectic C phase (SmCalt) at temperature lower, and temperature range broader than do the compounds containing a branched alkyl group as a swallow-tail. The temperature ranges of antiferroelectric phase were found to be 30-90 oC and crystallization temperatures were 4-60 oC. The binary mixture of an achiral swallow-tailed liquid crystal and a chiral antiferroelectric liquid crystal, (S)-MHPOBC showed antiferroelectric smectic C phase at temperature much lower than the single chiral antiferroelectric liquid crystal does.

The unequivocal solid-state structure and stereochemistry of the hetaryl leuco-TAM dye, 2,2’-(2-phenyl propane- 1,3-diylidene) bis(1,3,3- trimethylindoline) derivatives were established using X-ray single crystal analysis. The X-ray crystal analysis showed that the (Z, E)-isomers only formed stereoselectively, with a so-called “threebladed propeller” conformation, from the reaction of a Fischer base and benzaldehyde derivatives. These isomers were stacked in a juxtaposition to form a dimer or a double dimer, adopting either a triclinic, with P-1, or monoclinic crystal system with a space group P21/n in the unit cell of the crystal.

In this work, a new cadmium complex $[Cd(L)(CH_3COO)_2].2H_2O$ (1) with the ligand L, N,N'-bis(2-pyridinecarboxalidene)-1,2-cyclohexanediamine was prepared and identified by elemental analysis, FT-IR, Raman, $^1H$ NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The cadmium atom in the crystal structure of 1 has distorted triangular dodecahedral geometry by coordination of the four nitrogen atoms of L and four oxygen atoms of the two acetate ions. Two water molecules are also incorporated in the crystal network. The $O-H{\cdots}O$ hydrogen bonds present in the crystal structure of 1. In this work, three structural surveys including coordination numbers of the cadmium atom, coordination modes of L and resonance in pyridine-2-ylmethanimine-based compounds are presented.

The synthetic route and physical properties for three-ring derivatives, trans-2,3,2',3'-tetrafluoro-4-alkyl-4'-(4-alkyl-cyclohexyl)-biphenyl and 4-alkyl-cyclohexane carboxylic acid 2,3,2',3',4'-pentafluoro-biphenyl-4-yl ester are presented. They exhibit broad range nematic phases exceeding 30K and low viscosity of nematic liquid crystal mixtures containing these materials. Their viscosity is compared with that of homologues with a lateral isothiocyanate group and show large negative dielectric anisotropies. The threshold voltage $V_{th}$ was low enough to be operated at a driving voltage of 5V. Our novel LC compounds are suitable materials for the improvement of dielectric anisotropy of vertical align liquid crystal displays (VA-LDCs).

In-plane-switching (IPS)-mode LCD is one of the most useful technologies for a broad range of viewing angles. To apply for IPS-LCDs, we synthesized novel homogeneous alignment materials, changing dianhydrides (BTDA and BPDA) and bridged diamines (ODA and PACM). We measured their pre-tilt angles using the crystal rotation method with positive LC and their surface properties.

The hydrophobic interaction between tetraphenylborate (TPB$^-$) or tetrakis (4-fluorophenyl)borate (TFB$^-$) and crystal violet has been investigated in aqueous solutions by absorption spectrophotometry. Both of the anions promote the aggregation of the ion pairs formed between crystal violet and TPB$^-$ or TFB$^-$. When crystal violet and borate anion are nearly equimolar, insoluble floating aggregates can be observed. Based on the relative absorbance of H and J bands and on the effect of TX-100, TFB$^-$ is found to be more hydrophobic than TPB$^-$.

To study the effect of solvents and counterions in Z-DNA crystal of d(5BrC-G-5BrC-G-5BrC-G), we performed the local energy analysis and then molecular dynamics simulations. Since counterions raise serious caging problems in crystal simulations, it is very important to search for the possible positions before simulations. For this purpose, the local energy analysis was done for the whole crystal volume. It is shown from our simulation that counterions along with water molecules play a bridging role to bind adjacent oligomers so as to form the crystal. In this crystal, each water molecule bound to Gua-N2H, either directly or indirectly, hydrates the adjacent anionic phosphate oxygen, and thus assists Gua to be in a syn position. From the simulation, the average root-mean-square deviation of allthe DNA heavy atom coordinates from the X-ray data is $0.99{\AA}$ . The bases are less deviated from the X-ray positions than the phosphates. The temperature factors from the simulation are consistent with those from the X-ray refinement, showing that the phosphates are more mobile than the bases.
