V. Bykova et al., THE INFLUENCE OF THE STRUCTURE OF TETRA(4-SULPHOPHENYL)PORPHIN DERIVATIVES ON THEIR LYOTROPIC MESOMORPHISM, Molecular crystals and liquid crystals science and technology. Section A, Molecular crystals and liquid crystals, 265, 1995, pp. 651-657
Tetra(4-sulphophenyl)-beta-octamethyl-porphin has been synthesized wit
h the object of studying how the structure of the macrocycle, the type
and position of the substitutes, and the character of the metal-compl
ex generator influences the lyotrophic mesomorphism. Its spectral prop
erties and lyotropic mesomorphism in water-ammonia and water-NaOH syst
ems have been studied.
