Halovinyl-derivatives

The present invention is concerned with liquid crystal components having a terminal halovinyl group, liquid crystalline mixtures which contain such compounds and the use of such compounds for electro-optical purposes.
Liquid crystals are used primarily as dielectrics in indicating devices, since the optical properties of such compounds can be influenced by an applied voltage. Electro-optical devices based on liquid crystals are well-known to a person skilled in the art and can be based on various effects. Such devices are, for example, cells having dynamic scattering, DAP cells (deformation of aligned phases), guest/host cells, TN cells having a "twisted nematic" structure, STN cells ("super-twisted nematic"), SBE cells ("super-birefringence effect") and OMI cells ("optical mode interference"). The most common indicating devices are based on the Schadt-Helfrich effect and have a twisted nematic structure.
The liquid crystal materials must have a good chemical and thermal stability and a good stability towards electric fields and electromagnetic radiation. Further, at the usual operating temperatures in as broad a range as possible they should have a suitable mesophase or in mixtures should bring about or support a mesophase (for example, a nematic or a cholesteric phase for the aforementioned cells), but nevertheless should have a sufficiently low viscosity-and in the cells should permit short response times, low threshold potentials and a high contrast. Further properties such as the electrical conductivity, the dielectric anisotropy and the optical anisotropy must fulfil different requirements depending on the field of application and type of cell.
Compounds which fulfil these requirements are provided by the present invention.
The invention is concerned with compounds of the general formula ##STR2## wherein R signifies hydrogen, halogen, cyano, isothiocyanato, or alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl with 1 to 15 carbon atoms, which is unsubstituted or substituted with at least one of halogen, cyano and/or trifluoromethyl and in which one or more non-adjacent --CH.sub.2 -- groups can be replaced by --O--, --S--, --CO--, --COO-- and/or --OOC--;
Q represents alkylene with 2 to 10 carbon atoms, which is unsubstituted or substituted with at least one fluorine and in which one --CH.sub.2 -- group can be replaced by --O--, --S--, --COO-- or --OOC--, or --CH.sub.2 --, --CF.sub.2 --, --CHF-- or a single covalent bond;
A.sup.1,A.sup.2, A.sup.3 each independently signify 1,4-phenylene, which is unsubstituted or substituted with at least one of halogen, cyano and/or methyl and in which, when it is unsubstituted, one or more --CH-- groups can be replaced by nitrogen, or unsubstituted or cyano- or fluoro-substituted trans-1,4-cyclohexylene, or 1,4-cyclohexenylene, trans-1,3-dioxane-2,5-diyl or trans-1,3-dithiane-2,5-diyl;
A.sup.4 represents unsubstituted or cyano- or fluoro-substituted trans-1,4-cyclohexylene, or 1,4-cyclohexenylene, trans-1,3-dioxane-2,5-diyl, trans-1,3-dithiane-2,5-diyl or, when Q is different from a single covalent bond, also 1,4-phenylene, which is unsubstituted or substituted with at least one of halogen, cyano and/or methyl and in which, when it is unsubstituted, one or more --CH-- groups can be replaced by nitrogen;
X.sup.1 represents bromine or chlorine;
Z.sup.1,Z.sup.2,Z.sup.3 each independently denote a single covalent bond, --CH.sub.2 O--, --OCH.sub.2 --, --CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 --, --COO--, --OOC--, --C.tbd.C--, --(CH.sub.2).sub.4 --, --(CH.sub.2).sub.3 O--, --O(CH.sub.2).sub.3 --, the trans form of --CH.dbd.CH--, --CH.dbd.CHCH.sub.2 O--, --OCH.sub.2 CH.dbd.CH--, --CH.dbd.CH(CH.sub.2).sub.2 -- or --(CH.sub.2).sub.2 CH.dbd.CH--;
n, p each independently signify 0 or 1;
R.sup.2, R.sup.3 each independently represent hydrogen or fluorine.
The compounds in accordance with the invention are characterized by the presence of a vinylic halogen atom. This gives a comparatively high positive contribution to the dielectric anisotropy. In particular, the ready polarizability of the halovinyl group contributes to a surprisingly favourable influencing of the mesophases and of the electro-optical properties of the compounds in accordance with the invention. Thus, the compounds in accordance with the invention exhibit e.g. high clearing points and low threshold potentials, but without having an undesirably high electrical conductivity.
In spite of the high clearing points, the compounds in accordance with the invention have a comparatively low viscosity and therefore have short switching times. The compounds are excellently suited for use, inter alia, in TN, STN cells and in actively addressed indicating devices.
Contrary to expectations, the halovinyl compounds in accordance with the invention have an extraordinary thermal stability and a good stability towards electromagnetic radiation and towards electric fields.
The outstanding properties of these compounds can be coordinated optimally to the desired applications by selecting the rings A.sup.1, A.sup.2, A.sup.3 and A.sup.4 as well as the residue R. Thus, for example, the elastic properties can be modified depending on the choice of R. Further, the optical anisotropy can be varied in a wide range; for example, the compounds of formula I in which rings A.sup.1, A.sup.2 and A.sup.3 signify trans-1,4-cyclohexylene and/or trans-1,3-dioxane-2,5-diyl have low optical anisotropies and the compounds of formula I in which rings A.sup.1, A.sup.2 and A.sup.3 signify unsubstituted or fluoro-substituted 1,4-phenylene have especially high optical anisotropies.

The compounds of general formula I in which R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 signify hydrogen can be manufactured in a manner known per se, e.g. by reacting a suitable aldehyde under Wittig conditions with a chloromethyl- or bromomethyltriphenylphosphonium halide, see Schemes 1 to 3. ##STR7##
The double bond of the chloro- or bromovinyl side-chain produced in this manner usually occurs in an E/Z ratio of above 75% E-configuration and thus the pure E-isomer can be obtained by simple crystallization. Thereby, the isomerization of the double bond, which is to some extent costly, does not apply. The aldehydes which are used as starting materials are known and, where they are not commercially available, can be prepared in a manner known per se. ##STR8##
Because the steric hindrance of the ring system does not take place, the double bond produced in this manner occurs as a rule as an E/Z mixture in a ratio of about 1:1. It will be evident that the compounds can be used not only in the E-form or in the Z-form, but also as a mixture of isomers.
The compounds of formula I in which R.sup.2 denotes hydrogen and R.sup.3 signifies fluorine can also be manufactured from the aldehydes of the formula ##STR9## wherein R, A.sup.1, A.sup.2, A.sup.3, A.sup.4, Z.sup.1, Z.sup.2, Z.sup.3, Q, n and p have the above significance, under Wittig conditions with bromofluoromethyl- or chlorofluoromethyltriphenylphosphonium chloride [D. J. Burton, J. Fluorine Chem 23, (1983) 3391].
The compounds of formula I in which R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 signify fluorine can also be manufactured in a manner known per se, e.g. by the direct coupling of a suitable halide of the general formula ##STR10## wherein R, A.sup.1, A.sup.2, A.sup.3, A.sup.4, Z.sup.1, Z.sup.2, Z.sup.3, Q, n and p have the above significance and X.sup.7 signifies halogen, preferably iodine, with a suitable, prior-metallated difluoroethylene of the formula ##STR11## wherein R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 signify fluorine, X.sup.8 represents chlorine, bromine or iodine; and X.sup.1 denotes chlorine or bromine. Ethylenes of formula IV are known and their synthesis is described, for example, in CA 99/13-104740 and in J. Org. Chem. 30, 2121 (1965). The metallation of such ethylenes, for example with copper, is described in the literature (see e.g. J. March. "Advanced Organic Chemistry", McGraw-Hill, Tokio, 1977, p. 408f).
The compounds of formula I can be used in the form of mixtures with one another and/or with other liquid crystal components. Suitable liquid crystal components will be known in large numbers by a person skilled in the art. e.g. from D. Demus et al., Flussige Kristalle in Tabellen, VEB Deutscher Verlag fur Grundstoffindustrie, Leipzig, volumes I and II, and many of them are, moreover, commercially available.
The invention is therefore also concerned with a liquid crystalline mixture having at least two components, wherein at least one component is a compound formula I (especially a compound referred to as being preferred).
In mixtures, the compounds in accordance with the invention are distinguished by their chemical stability. Having regard to the good solubility on the one hand and on the other hand having regard to the wide range of variation of the properties and applications, the content of compounds of formula I in the mixtures in accordance with the invention can vary in a wide range. For example, the mixtures can consist exclusively of compounds of formula I. Alternatively, when R is chiral the compounds in accordance with the invention can also be used a chiral dopants. Such chiral dopants are frequently used only in relatively small amounts of e.g. about 0.1 to 10 wt. %. However, in general the content of compounds of formula I in the mixtures in accordance with the invention is about 1-60 wt. %. A range of as about 5-30 wt. % is generally preferred.
The mixtures in accordance with the invention for nematic or cholesteric applications preferably contain, in addition to one or more compounds of formula I, one more compounds from the group of compounds of the general formulae ##STR12## wherein R.sup.4, R.sup.7 signify alkyl, alkoxyalkyl, 3E-alkenyl, 4-alkenyl or on saturated rings also 1E-alkenyl;

R.sup.8 signifies alkyl, 1E-alkenyl, 3E-alkenyl or 4-alkenyl;
R.sup.9 represent cyano, alkyl, 1E-alkenyl, 3E-alkenyl, 4-alkenyl, alkoxy, 2E-alkenyloxy, 3-alkenyloxy, alkoxymethyl or (2E-alkenyl)oxymethyl;

R.sup.10 signifies hydrogen, fluorine or chlorine;
R.sup.11 represents cyano, fluorine or chlorine;

R.sup.13 represent fluorine or chlorine.
The term "aromatic ring" used above denotes in this connection rings such as 1,4-phenylene, pyridine-2,5-diyl and pyrimidine-2,5-diyl. The term "saturated ring" denotes trans-1,4-cyclohexylene and the trans-1,3-dioxane-2,5-diyl.
The residues R.sup.4, R.sup.5, R.sup.6, R.sup.7, R.sup.8 and R.sup.9 preferably have 1 to 12 carbon atoms, especially 1 to 7 carbon atoms.
The mixtures in accordance with the invention can also contain optically active compounds (e.g. optically active 4'-alkyl-or 4'-alkoxy-4-biphenylcarbonitriles) and/or dichroic colouring substances (e.g. azo, azoxy or anthraquinone colouring substances). The amount of such compounds is determined by the solubility, the desired helical pitch, colour, extinction and the like. In general, the amount of optically active compounds and dichroic colouring substances is in each case a maximum of about 10 wt. % in the finished mixture.
The manufacture of the liquid crystalline mixtures and of the electro-optical devices can be effected in a manner known per se.

C signifies a crystalline phase, S signifies a smectic phase, N signifies a nematic phase and I signifies the isotropic phase. V.sub.10 denotes the voltage for 10% transmission (viewing direction perpendicular to the plate surface). t.sub.on and t.sub.off denote the switching-on time and, respectively, the switching-off time and .DELTA.n denotes the optical anisotropy.

EXAMPLE 2
2.25 g of bromomethyltriphosphonium bromide were suspended in 10 ml of abs. tetrahydrofuran in a sulphonation flask while gassing with nitrogen and the suspension was cooled to -20.degree. C. and treated with 0.61 g of potassium tert.-butylate. After stirring at -20.degree. C. for 20 minutes a solution of 1 g of 4-[4'-trans-(1,1'-bicyclohexylcarboxaldehyde)-4-trans-yl]toluene in 10 ml of abs. tetrahydrofuran was added dropwise. The suspension was stirred at -20.degree. C. for a further 40 minutes, thereafter poured into 80 ml of ice-cooled hexane and the colourless suspension was stirred at 0.degree. C. for 30 minutes. The suspension was suction filtered and the filtrate was evaporated. The residue (2.02 g) was purified by chromatography on silica gel with hexane and subsequently recrystallized from hexane to give 0.1 g of 4-{4'-trans-[(E)-2-bromovinyl][1,1'-bicyclohexyl]-4-trans-yl}toluene, m.p. S-N 122.4.degree. C., cl.p. (N-I) 231.9.degree. C.
