Abstract

The synthesis and characterization of a new diastereomeric compound are reported; this exhibits a temperature induced inversion of the cholesteric twist. Measurements of the cholesteric pitch and handedness are presented and qualitatively discussed in terms of the nature of the cholesteric twist inversion in pure compounds. Preliminary measurements of properties of the ferroelectric S∗c phase of this compound are also reported.
