Synthesis & characterization of C2-symmetric biphenyls as novel dopants for induced ferroelectric liquid crystal phases

We report the synthesis of novel rod-like chiral dopants bearing a C2-symmetric biphenyl core with a large transverse dipole moment, and the induction of a FLC phase upon doping of such compounds into a SC host.

Induction of a ferroelectric S(C)* liquid crystal phase by an atropisomeric dopant derived from 4,4'-dihydroxy-2,2'-dimethyl-6,6'-dinitrobiphenyl

We report the induction of a ferroelectric S(C)* phase in two S(C) liquid crystal hosts using a novel chiral dopant (-)-1 that incorporates an atropisomeric core derived from 4,4'-dihydroxy-2,2'-dimethyl-6,6'-dinitrobiphenyl. The racemic dopant was synthe
