Synthesis and magnetic properties of some crystalline nitroxide radicals

The syntheses of different nitroxide radicals are reported. The thermal behaviour of the nitroxide radicals was examined by polarizing microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry as well as X-ray diffraction experiments. Temperature dependent magnetic susceptibility measurements were carried out in order to determine the magnetic properties of these nitroxide radicals. The majority of the radicals presented here show weak antiferromagnetic exchange interactions.

Cyano-substituted biphenyl compounds and liquid crystalline dielectrics containing the same

Biphenyl derivatives of the formula: STR1 wherein X is --CO--O-- or --O--CO--, R1 and R4 are alkyl of 1 to 10 carbon atoms, and one of R2 and R3 is CN and the other is H, are useful for lowering the dielectric anisotropy of liquid crystalline dielectrics.
