Abstract

In this article, we describe the complete 1H and 13C NMR signal assignments of four 1,2,4-oxadiazoles possessing light-emitting liquid crystal properties. These results were obtained by using one- and two-dimensional NMR techniques as well as GIAO (PCM) calculations at B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level for compounds 1 and 2ad. The computed values are in good agreement with the ones obtained experimentally. In addition, some previously unexplained thermotropic features of compounds 2ad could be clarified with the help of the geometry optimization calculations carried out by us.
