摘要: In order to obtain discotic compounds exhibiting a cubic mesophase, we synthesised two new series of compounds, 2,3,9,10,16,17,23,24‐octakis(4‐alkoxyphenoxy)phthalocyaninato copper(II) complexes, referred as (C n OPhO)8PcCu (1, n = 10, 12, 14), and 2,3,9,10,16,17,23,24‐octakis(3,4,5‐trialkoxyphenoxy)phthalocyaninato [(C O)3PhO]8PcCu (3, which both contain octakis(phenoxy)phthalocyaninato the central core eight or twenty‐four long alkoxy chains in periphery, respectively. Their mesomorphic properties were compared alongside those previously reported 2,3,9,10,16,17,23,24‐octakis(3,4‐dialkoxyphenoxy)phthalocyaninato [(CnO)2PhO]8PcCu (2, 14). The phase transition behaviour these (1–3) varies considerably with number peripheral chains. eight‐chain‐substituted (CnOPhO)8PcCu complexes (1) exhibited only one hexagonal columnar (Colh) mes...
