Synthesis of new mesogenic compounds having the isoflavone core group

Pages 75-81 | Received 01 Sep 2001, Published online: 06 Aug 2010
 

Abstract

Two new series of calamitic liquid crystals containing the isoflavone moiety within the central core have been prepared and their liquid crystalline properties studied. The compounds exhibit typical nematic, smectic A and C mesophases. The influence of the linking group between a terminal alkyl chain and the central core has been proven to determine the variety of mesomorphism displayed by the compounds.
