TLDR
The crystal structure of the 1,1′-disubstituted ferrocene derivative was determined by X-ray diffraction using a single crystal as discussed by the authors, which revealed that the two substituents lie in the same direction (U' shape) and the flexible spacer adopts a gauche conformation.Abstract:
The crystal structure of the title 1,1′-disubstituted ferrocene derivative was determined by X-ray diffraction using a single crystal. This compound exhibits a nematic phase only. The X-ray structure analysis revealed that the two substituents lie in the same direction (`U' shape) and the flexible spacer adopts a gauche conformation. These conformations are strongly related to the formation of a rod-like shape, which favors liquid crystalline behavior. In the crystal structure, C—H⋯π, π–π and T-stacking interactions were observed. It is considered that these interactions play a major role in stabilizing the molecular packing arrangement and the mesomorphism.read more
