Dendrons Gn-Cl and Gn-NH (n = 2-4) and novel dendrimers Gn-N approximately N-Gn (n = 2-4) based on triazine and piperazine units were efficiently prepared in good yields without employing the protection and deprotection processes and are fully characterized by 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectroscopies, elemental analysis, and mass spectroscopy. These compounds are transparent and possess good thermal stability. G4-Cl shows a monotropic columnar phase in a narrow range with a coexisting crystalline phase. Dendron G4-NH shows a rectangular column-phase, and dendrimer G4-N approximately N-G4 exhibits a monotropic hexagonal columnar phase. These identifications were supported by the polarizing optical scope and powder XRD studies.
