Order Parameters of β-Substituted Anthraquinone Dyes I: 1-Amino-4-Hydroxyanthraquinone Derivatives

A study is presented of the optical order parameters and spectroscopic properties of 1-amino-4-hydroxyanthraquinone derivatives containing various substituents in the 2-position in a nematic liquid crystalline mixture composed of cyanophenylcyclohexane derivatives.The results are discussed in terms of the effects of the dye structure on the order parameters.By introducing a -SCH2- group into the 2-position, magneta dyes have been obtained which show high order parameters and solubilities.In addition, preliminary data on the solubility and photostability of the dyes are reported.
