| Abstract: | Abstract Ten mono-substituted ferrocene-containing liquid crystals, which containing Schiff base or ester group, were prepared and their mesogenic behaviors were investigated. Two molecular structures were analyzed by X-ray. 4-ferrocenylphenyl 3′-chloro-4′-(2-methylbutyloxy)-benzoate, triclinic crystal system, P1 space group, a=12.035(2)Å, b=14.402(3)Å, c=15.137(3)Å, α =103.07(3)Å, ß = 102.01(3)Å, γ = 96.70(3)Å, Z=4, 8141 independent reflections, R=0.0528, Rw=0.1724. 4-ferrocenylphenyl 3′-chloro-4′-decanyloxybenzoate, triclinic crystal system, P1 space group, a= 11.663(2)Å, b= 11.729(2)Å, c=22.005(4)Å, α=76.10(3)Å, ß =87.56(3)Å, γ = 77.89(3)Å, Z=4, 7935 independent reflections, R=0.0784, Rw=0.2265. |
