It was found that the increase of the conjugate length as well as the terminal length can contribute to enhance the interaction of molecules and thus significantly influenced the thermal behaviors of H-bonded LCs. The cholesteric reflection spectra of the induced mesogenic complexes were located in the visible region with the color tuneable thermo-sensitivity, which could be used for display application.展开更多

Complex 1 belongs to the triclinic system, space group P1 with a = 8.6960(2), b = 9.957(2), c = 11.878(2)A, α = 73.36(3), β = 78.25(3), γ = 82.64(3)°, V = 962.1(3) A^3, Mr= 512.81, Z = 2, F(000) = 514, Dc = 1.770 g/cm^3,μ(MoKα) = 3.251, R = 0.0337 and wR = 0.0846.

The ligands form a satisfactory N2O2 square plane around the metal centers in two compounds. Different patterns of hydrogen bonds are observed owing to the presence of different substituents on aromatic ring of the acylhydrazone Schiff bases. In complex 1, square-planar copper(Ⅱ) complexes are linked by intermolecular hydrogen bonds leading to zigzag infinite chains. In complex 2, the metal complexes are linked via hydrogen bonds to form corrugated sheets in a staggered fashion; 3D channels along the b axis are constructed through other non-covalent interactions between the neighboring layers.展开更多
