Abstract: | Syntheses and mesomorphic properties of di-, tri- and tetrafluorosubstituted 4′-(4-alkylphenyl)-4-isothiocyanatotolanes are described. Four fluorine substituted compounds in the position 2′, 3′, 3, and 5 show stronger nematic character than difluorosubstituted ones in the position 3, 5 or 2′, 3′. Example of high birefringence nematic mixture and its properties are given. |
