dc.description.abstractThe incorporation of photorefractive molecular units, such as carbazole, into anisotropic materials (liquid crystals) may offer many advantages over conventional electrical poling of photorefractive polymers. Thus, a series of symmetric 3,6-disubstituted carbazole derivatives with well-known biphenyl and triphenylene liquid-crystalline moieties was synthesized and characterized. These modifications were achieved by the esterification of bishydroxy carbazole derivatives with monoalkylated biphenyl carboxylic acids and alkylation of bisacylated bromo- derivatives of carbazole with monohydroxy pentaalkoxy triphenylene. The pure compounds are not liquid-crystalline, even when doped with trinitrofluorenone (TNF), unlike triphenylene/carbazole materials that we reported previously. These compounds, although not liquid-crystalline, may be of interest in the field of photorefractivity.en
