Columnar liquid crystalline π-conjugated oligothiophenes

Abstract

Polycatenar oligothiophenes possessing three alkoxy chains at each terminal self-organise into columnar liquid crystalline phases, and one-dimensional columnar stacks can be oriented uniaxially by mechanical shearing in the mesophases.
