Alkenyloxy-cyanobiphenyls

The most simple molecular topology of such systems reported so far is a tetrahedral supermolecule obtained by reacting tetrakis(dimethylsiloxy)-silane with alkenyloxy-cyanobiphenyls (Fig. 22), as discussed previously. Such tetramers exhibit smectic A liquid crystal phases [179]. For such end-on materials, microsegregation at the molecular level favors the formation of the smectic A phases in preference to the nematic phase exhibited by the mesogenic monomers themselves. The use of different polyhedral silox-ane systems (Fig. 24) or the Ceo polyhedron as the template for multi- and polypedal hexakis(methano)fullerenes (Fig. 70) substituted with a large number of terminally attached mesogenic groups confirm the same tendency to the formation of smectic A phases (vide supra). [Pg.134]
