Abstract

A series of new dimesogenic compounds were prepared and their thermotropic and liquid crystalline properties were studied by differential scanning calorimetry and on a hot-stage of a polarizing microscope. These compounds, 1,10-bis[2,5-bis(4-substitutedphenoxycarbonyl)phenoxy]decanes, consist of two bis(ρ-substitutedphenoxy)terephthalate units interconnected through a oxydecamethyleneoxy spacer on the central terephthaloyl units resulting in the structure of "H-shaped" dimeric twin compounds. The terminal substitutent groups were changed; X=-F, -H, -I, -Cl, -Br, $-NO_2,\;-CF_3,\;-OC_4H_9,\;-CN\;and\;-C_6H_5.$ The compounds with X=$-OC_4H_9,\;-CN\;and\;-C_6H_5$ were monotropically nematic. In contrast, the compounds with $X=-F, -H, -I, -Cl, -Br, $-NO_2\;and\;-CF_3$ were non-liquid crystals. The nematic group efficiency of these compounds was in the order of -C_6H_5>-CN>-OC_4H_9.$

새로운 에메소겐 액정화합물들을 합성하였고, 이들의 열적 및 액정 성질을 DSC와 가열판이 부착된 편광현미경을 사용하여 조사하였다. 이 화합물들 즉, 1,10-bis[2,5-bis(4-substitutedphenoxycarbonyl)phenoxy]decane은 "H-자형" 이합체 대칭화합물의 구조로 중앙의 테페프탈로일 단위에 oxydecamethyleneoxy 격자를 통하여 상호 연결된 두 개의 bis(p-substitutedphenoxy)terephthalate 단위로 이루어졌다. 메소겐의 치환기는 X=-F, -H, -I, -Cl, -Br, $-NO_2,\;-CF_3,\;-OC_4H_9-CN$$-C_6H_5$를 바꾸어 보았다. $X=-OC_4H_9-CN$$C_6H_5$ 화합물은 단방성 네마틱액정이었으며 이에 비하여 X=-F, -H, -I, -Cl, -Br, $-NO_2$$-CH_3$는 액정이 아니었다. 이 화합물들의 네마틱 그룹 효율은 $-C_6H_5>-CN>-OC_4H_9$ 순이었다.
