Abstract

The synthesis of monofunctionalized myo- and scyllo-inositol derivatives and their attachment as side groups on a polysiloxane backbone are described. All polymers with scyllo-inositol mesogens show liquid-crystalline behaviour. In contrast to this the myo-inosital mesogens containing polymers exhibit no liquid-crystalline phases.
