Abstract

We report the syntheses and characterizations of a novel TTF derivative. To extend the mesogenic core, alkoxy naphthalenic group and short alkyl chains were introduced on either side of TTF unit, which results in asymmetric planar structure. TTF molecule is expected to show many interesting properties.
