Synthesis and properties of ferroelectric liquid crystals derived from 5-alkyl-δ-valerolactones

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/10587250008023865

New homologous FLCs (I-II-n [n=1-4]) derived from optically active 5-alkyl-6-valerolactones were synthesized. Their mesomorphic properties were systematically investigated with respect to their molecular structures, which were different in terms of the le
