New anionic surfactants and methods of preparation which are derived from aromatic or substituted aromatic molecules and alkenesulfonic acid. Wherein the aryl compound is alkylated and sulfonated in one-step with an alkene sulfonic acid prior to sulfonic acid neutralization. The methods allow the functional sulfonate group to be attached to the end of the alkyl chain rather than to the aromatic ring thus allowing for selective substituted groups, either branched, linear or alkoxylated or combinations thereof to be placed on the aryl compound prior to sulfonation and alkylation. The invention uses the alkene sulfonic acid produced from thin-film sulfonation of an alpha-olefin to alkylate benzene, mono-substituted aromatic, poly-substituted aromatic, alkylbenzene, alkoxylated benzene, polycyclic aromatic, mono-substituted polycyclic aromatic, poly-substituted polycyclic aromatic, naphthalene, alkylnaphthalene, phenol, alkylphenol, alkoxylated phenol, and alkoxylated alkylphenolalkyl substituted or polysubstituted cyclic or polycyclic compounds to produce the corresponding sulfonic acid having an additional alkyl group derived from the alpha-olefin used during the thin-film sulfonation which is either linear or branched.

In one embodiment of the present invention, a novel fused polycyclic aromatic compound of the present invention is (a) a compound including a benzodichalcogenophenobenzodichalcogenophene (BXBX) skeleton further having an aromatic ring(s) located outside the BXBX skeleton, or (b) a compound including a BXBX skeleton in which a benzene ring is substituted with a heterocyclic ring. The compound can strengthen intermolecular interaction due to greater π electron orbits. This improves an electron field effect mobility of an organic semiconductor device that is manufactured by use of the compound as an organic semiconductor material. Further, since the number of fused rings included in the compound is small, the compound does not cause problems that generally occur in compounds having an extremely large number of fused rings, i.e., poor solubility in solvent and poor atmospheric stability due to high affinity to oxygen. As a result, the fused polycyclic aromatic compound of the present invention can be preferably used as an organic semiconductor material.

The present invention provides a composition for forming a liquid crystal alignment film, which comprises a photoreactive polymer including a multicyclic compound having a photoreactive group on a main chain thereof. The present invention also provides a liquid crystal alignment film produced using the composition, and a liquid crystal display including the liquid crystal alignment film. The photoreactive polymer including the multicyclic compound on the main chain thereof has a high glass transition temperature, thus thermal stability is excellent.
