New mesogenic compounds exhibiting a thermotropic optically isotropie phase

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/10587250108025056

The only two series of carboxylic acids, 3-nitro- or 3-cyano-4-alkoxybiphenyl-4'-carboxylic acid, are known to exhibit the optically isotropic phase (S_D). Now we synthesised 4-(branched alkoxy)-anilinebenzylidene-4'-carboxylic acid series, all
