The mutual influence of a liquid crystalline medium and chiral dopants of 1R,4R-n-mentane-3-one 2-arylidene derivatives dissolved in it

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Molecular dynamics computer simulation and quantum chemistry methods were used to study the influence of nematic liquid crystalline 4- n -pentyl-4′-cyanobiphenyl on the conformations of chiral dopant molecules of 1R,4R- n -menthane-3-one 2-arylidene derivatives and the influence of these chiral dopants on the conformation of the liquid crystal. The simulation results are compared with the available experimental data.
