Abstract

Ten new chiral liquid crystalline compounds I1–10 of 4′ -acyl-4-biphenylol (S) -4- (2-methyl-l-butoxy) benzoates were synthesized and their mesomorphic properties were tested. They are all smectic liquid crystals with wide temperature ranges and except for compounds I1, all exhibit a Sc*phase. The influence of molecular structure on phase behavior is discussed.
