Asymmetrical liquid crystal dimers with 1,2,3-triazole bent-mesogenic core: synthesis, characterization and theoretical studies

This work reports new liquid crystal dimers containing an alkoxy spacer that connects 1,4-disubstituted triazole-bent core with a rod-like esterified biphenyl mesogenic core and a Schiff base with terminal cyanobiphenyl group. The structures of these dimers were elucidated using...
