Abstract: | Mesomorphic and dielectric properties of three homologous series of two and three ring fluorosubstituted esters are described.
They are 4-cyano-3-fluorophenyl 4-alkyloxy-2-fluorobenzoates, 4-cyano-3-fluorophenyl 4-(4-alkylbenzoyloxy)-2-fluorobenzoates
and 3-fluoro-4-cyanophenyl, or 3-fluoro-4-isothiocyanatophenyl or 3,4-difluorophenyl 4′-alkyl-2,3-difluoro-biphenyl-4-carboxylates.
The compounds exhibit the nematic mesophase accompanied by the smectic A or smectic C mesophase in some cases. Most of them
show strong dependence of the dielectric anisotropy Δε upon frequency, at low frequencies Δε reaches a value ∼200, while at
high frequencies a small negative dielectric anisotropy appears. |
