Abstract

Most mesogens formed by banana-shaped molecules exhibit liquid-like smectic phases. Here we present the synthesis and properties of homologous series of derivatives of resorcinol and 2,6-disubstituted pyridine. One of these classes of bent-core molecules displays the nematic phase. © 2000 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
