The recently introduced concept of ionic liquid crystals (ILCs) with complementary ion pairs, consisting of both, mesogenic cation and anion, was extended from guanidinium sulfonates to guanidinium sulfonimides. In this preliminary study, the synthesis and mesomorphic properties of selected derivatives were described, which provide the first example of an ILC with the sulfonimide anion directly attached to the mesogenic unit.

A series of phenylguanidinium salts 3·X, which are linked via an alkoxy spacer either to a 4-decyloxy- or 4-cyano-substituted biphenyl mesogen, was prepared and the mesomorphism studied. A decyloxybiphenyl core and a spacer of at least C6 chain length were required for mesophase formation. Replacement of the chloride counterion by other anions like bromide or tetrafluoroborate improved the thermal stability of the mesophase. A comparison of substitution pattern (meta v. para) on the phenyl ring revealed decreased melting and clearing points for the bent cationic head group. All guanidinium ionic liquid crystals 3 displayed only smectic A (SmA) phases. A packing model is assumed where the molecules in a bilayer stack over each other in opposite direction with interdigitated terminal decyloxy groups and spacers.

Microwave Assisted Method

Two kinds of novel unsymmetric imidazolium salts based ionic liquid crystals (1- [4-(dodecyloxy) phenyl]-3-hexyl/octyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium bromide) were efficiently prepared using a microwave-assisted method. Their mesomorphism has been fully investigated by POM and DSC. The two imidazolium salts displayed typical and good smectic phase textures.

AbstractIonic liquids crystals belong to a special class of ionic liquids that exhibit thermotropic liquid-crystalline behavior. Recently, dicationic ionic liquid crystals have been reported with a cation containing two single-charged ions covalently linked by a spacer. In ionic liquid crystals, electrostatic and hydrogen bonding interactions in ionic sublayer and van der Waals interaction in hydrophobic domains are the main forces contributing to the mesophase stabilization and determining the molecular orientational order and conformation. How these properties in dicationic materials are compared to those in conventional monocationic analogs? We address this question using a combination of advanced NMR methods and DFT analysis. Dicationic salt 3,3′-(1,6-hexanediyl)bis(1-dodecylimidazolium)dibromide was studied. Local bond order parameters of flexible alkyl side chains, linker chain, and alignment of rigid polar groups were analyzed. The dynamic spacer effectively “decouples” the motion of two ionic moieties. Hence, local order and alignment in dicationic mesophase were similar to those in analogous single-chain monocationic salts. Bond order parameters in the side chains in the dicationic smectic phase were found consistently lower compared to double-chain monocationic analogs, suggesting decreasing contribution of van der Waals forces. Overall dication reorientation in the smectic phase was characterized by low values of orientational order parameter S. With increased interaction energy in the polar domain the layered structure is stabilized despite less ordered dications. The results emphasized the trends in the orientational order in ionic liquid crystals and contributed to a better understanding of interparticle interactions driving smectic assembly in this and analogous ionic mesogens.
