A series of cholesterol-containing monomers was synthesized: cholesteryl esters of N-acryloyl- omega -aminocarboxylic acids, N-methacryloyl- omega -aminocarboxylic acids, omega -acryloyloxycarboxylic acids and omega -methacryloyloxycarboxylic acids. The mesomorphic properties, temperatures and heats of transitions of monomers were investigated in comparison with the cholesteryl alkanoates. The temperature range of cholesteric mesophase of monomers-derivatives of oxycarboxylic acids was shown to be wide. Such monomers can be used in thermographic composites and for synthesis of the liquid-crystalline polymers.
