    Janus-type liq.-cryst. fullerodendrimers were synthesized via the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddtition of 2 mesomorphic dendrons and C60. By assembling poly(aryl ester) dendrons functionalized with cyanobiphenyl groups, displaying lamellar mesomorphism, with poly(benzyl ether) dendrons carrying alkyl chains, which display columnar mesomorphism, the authors could tailor by design the liq.-cryst. properties of the title compds. as a function of each dendron size. The liq.-cryst. properties were examd. by polarized optical microscopy, DSC, and x-ray diffraction. Depending on the dendrimer generations, smectic (SmC and/or SmA phases) or columnar (Colr-c2mm or Colr-p2gg phases) mesomorphism was obtained. The supramol. organization is governed by (1) the adequacy of the cross-sectional area of the dendrons, (2) the microsegregation of the dendrimer, (3) the deformation of the dendritic core, and (4) the dipolar interactions between the cyanobiphenyl groups. Comparison of the mesomorphic properties of 2 fullerodendrimers with those of model compds. (fullerene-free analogs) indicated that the C60 unit does not influence the type of mesophase that is formed. Mol. properties detd. in soln. (permanent dipole moment, specific dielec. polarization, molar Kerr const.) confirm that microsegregation persists in soln. and strengthen the models proposed for the structure of the mesophases.
