摘要： A new class of blue light-emitting bowl-shaped mesogens with the thiacalix[4]arene core appended with 1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives having peripheral alkoxy side chains have been synthesized and well characterized. The liquid crystalline behavior of present synthesized derivatives was examined by optical polarizing microscopy, di?erential scanning calorimetry, and X-ray di?raction studies. It was observed that these thiacalix[4]arene derivatives were capable of stabilizing the observed Colh phase with a higher temperature range. The cone-shaped thiacalix[4]-arene-based liquid crystals with peripheral alkoxy side chains able to pack into the interactions and thermal behavior. All derivatives showed blue luminescence in solution, solid thin-?lm, and gelation state. The hexagonal columnar phase and emissive nature of thiadiazole-based thiacalixarene compounds having xerogel behavior make them favorable in the application of emissive electronic display devices. The electrochemical properties of these thiacalixarene-based compounds demonstrate the e?ect of alkyl side chain on the highest occupied molecular orbital?lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy levels and also exhibited lower electron band gaps. The electroluminescence behavior of the compound 10c was examined as emissive layers in the fabrication of organic light-emitting diodes.
