influence of changing sulfur by selenium atom in the formation of liquid crystalline phases and mesomorphism
range. Photophysical studies were performed in chloroform solution, where these compounds displayed strong
orange luminescent under UV light, with relevant quantum yields (ΦF = 0.14–0.16) and greater solvatochromic
dependence. Electrochemical studies showed oxidation and reduction patterns similar to 2,1,3-benzothiadiazoles
analogues, however presenting lower band gap.
