Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Three-dimensional arrays of dipolar rotors were constructed as single crystals of molecular gyrotops, which are macrocage molecules with a bridged dipolar rotor. In this study, we synthesized novel molecular gyrotops with a five-membered heteroring, i.e., furan-diyl (1), thiophene-diyl (2), and selenophene-diyl (3), and investigated the temperature-dependent orientation and rotation of the dipolar rotors inside the crystal. Unfortunately, furan derivative 1 did not crystallize; however, crystal structures of the other molecular gyrotops, i.e., 2 and 3, showed three-dimensional arrays of dipolar rotors. Thermal order–disorder transitions of the dipolar rotor orientation inside the crystal were observed in 2 and 3. In accordance with the thermal change of the crystal structure, temperature-dependent optical properties of a single crystal were observed by analysis of birefringence of the crystal.
