Abstract

Abstract Different approaches to the design of liquid crystals by using H-bonds were analyzed. A selection of stilbazoles and pyridine compounds, with one or two chelating positions, were used as H-acceptors in mixtures with carboxylic acids. The noncovalent complexes in question afforded calamitic mesomorphism (N, SmA and SmC) as well as a lamellar mesophase (SmCP). Additionally, the liquid crystalline behaviour of the new 2- ...
