AbstractAs aromaticity is one of the most fundamental concepts in chemistry, the construction of aromatic systems has long been an important subject. Herein, we report the synthesis and characterization of a tris-spiroaromatic complex, hexalithio spiro vanadacycle 2. The delocalization of the four electrons within the two V 3d orbitals and the π* orbitals of the three biphenyl ligands leads to a 40π Craig-Möbius aromatic system with three metalla-aromatic rings, as revealed by both experimental measurements and theoretical analyses. For comparison, if Cr is used instead of V, a similar Craig-Möbius aromatic system can not be generated. In this case, pentalithio spiro chromacycle 3 is obtained, and the Cr center uses its two 3d orbitals to form two independent metalla-aromatic rings. This work presents a type of aromatic systems that will contribute to both aromaticity theory and organometallic chemistry.

The synthesis and characterization of pyridine bent-core liquid crystals are reported. Some compounds exhibit B1 and B7 mesophases. Lower and wider mesophase ranges are obtained by decreasing the polarity of linkers between the pyridine ring and the inner aromatic rings, and increasing the length of terminal chains.

We have synthesized and characterized a variety of fat-soluble, low-melting and medicinally useful 4-aryl-4 H-chromenes from H-cardanol (side-chain perhydrogenated cardanol, 3-pentadecylphenol), a renewable and low-cost product from locally grown cashew nut trees ( Anacardium occidentale L.). We incorporated H-cardanol into the aromatic rings of either 4 H-chromene or phenol, or both. Substitution of C4SMe in N-methyl-4-(methylthio)-3-nitro-4 H-chromene-2-amines with H-cardanol was regio-specific at the C6 position.
