Liquid-phase Synthesis of highly crystalline functional fine particles and their application to optical materials (original) (raw)

Liquid crystals of bowl-like molecules

Chemical Physics, 1990

Seven compounds consisting of a rigid bowl-like core and six flexible side chains were synthesized. Five of them exhibit mesophases. Their mesomorphic properties were studied by differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffraction and optical micros copy. The experiments show that bowlic molecules can form relatively well ordered columnar mesophases.
