Discotics studied by EPR : The application of EPR spectroscopy to columnar discotic liquid crystals using a novel rigid‐core nitroxide spin probe (see picture) is possible. EPR spectra measured at different temperatures across three phases of hexakis( n ‐hexyloxy)triphenylene show a strong sensitivity to the phase composition, molecular rotational dynamics, and columnar order.
