Abstract
The 1:1 mesophase was formed through molecular self-assembly directed by hydrogen bonding between light active barbituric acid derivative, 5 -[4-dodecyloxybenzylidene]-2,4,6,-(1H, 3H)-pyrimidinetrione (B) and me lamine derivative, 4-amino-2,6-didodecylamino-1,3,5-triazine (M). It w as found through temperature-dependent IR spectra that there are three kinds of hydrogen bonds with different strength in this mesophase. Wh en dispersed in chloroform, this mesophase shows a double helical stru cture.
