Synthesis and Characterization of Naphthalene-Based Banana- Shaped Liquid Crystals for Photoswitching Properties
A series of banana-shaped monomers containing naphthalene as central units, azobenzene in side arms with terminal alkenes were synthesized and characterized. Polarizing optical microscopy, DSC and X-ray diffraction measurements reveal that one compound processes a nematic phase while other four comp...
