摘要

The synthesis and mesomorphic properties of a novel azoester homologous series consisting of 12 members is reported. The methyl to butyl derivatives of the series are non- mesogenic, and the others are enantiotropically smectogenic and/or nematogenic. The nematic mesophase shows a threaded or Schlieren texture and smectic mesophase shows a focal conic fan-shaped texture of the SmA or the SmC. The smectic and nematic thermal ...
