The mesomorphic anomaly of 4-[2-(4-alkoxy-2,3,5,6-tetrafluorophenyl)ethynyl] phenyl trans-4-pentylcyclohexyl-1-carboxylates |

Abstract: | Four homologous series of 4-[2-[4-alkoxy-2,3,5,6-tetrafluorophenyl)ethynyl] phenyl trans-4-alkylcyclohexyl-1-carboxylates have been prepared. Their liquid crystalline behaviour was investigated by optical polarizing microscopy and DSC. Series A, B and C exhibit the nematic phase. The phase transition behaviour of series D is anomalous. The compounds of series D with a short alkoxy chain exhibit enantiotropic smectic A and nematic phases, while those with a long alkoxy chain exhibit only the nematic phase. |
