Overview

Experimental study reveals mesomorphic properties in liquid crystals with variable alkoxy chains, indicating structural influences on phase formation.

Key Points

  • This research aims to investigate the mesomorphic behavior of calamitic liquid crystals with specific terminal substituents.
  • Synthesized a series of seven compounds with azo-ester linkages and acetyl group.
  • Characterized compounds using elemental analysis and spectroscopic techniques (IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR).
  • Studied mesomorphic properties using polarizing optical microscopy with a heating stage.
  • Compounds exhibited smectic C and nematic phases with distinct textures.
  • Influence of terminal and lateral substituents on mesophase formation was confirmed.
  • Comparison with related series provided insights into phase behavior dynamics.
