Synthesis of Liquid-Crystalline POSS

Synthesis of Liquid-Crystalline Hybrid Polymers Using POSS as a Component of Copolymerization  

Liquid-crystalline (LC) silsesquioxanes having various mesogenic moieties were synthesized by the hydrosilylation reaction of octa(hydridosilsesquioxane) and terminal alkenes with mesogenic groups using hexachloroplatinic acid as a catalyst
