PROTON MAGNETIC RESONANCE IN NEMATIC LIQUID CRYSTALS: ACETOXYBENZAL-p-ANISIDINE, ACETOXYBENZAL-p-AMINOAZOBENZENE, AND ANISAL-p-AMINOAZOBENZENE.

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/15421407308083045

Proton magnetic resonance has been investigated in three nematic liquid crystals - acetoxybenzal-p-anisidine, acetoxybenzal-p-aminoazobenzene and anisal-p-aminoazobenzene, using a broad line PMR spectrometer. The results show that the five-line pattern in the first two compounds is due to the hindered rotation of the acetoxy group. The degree of order parameter S has been evaluated for the three liquid crystals from line separations and second moment measurements. These calculations also confirm the hindered rotation of the acetoxy group.
