Abstract:Two series of p-alkoxybenzoates Ia-If and p-alkoxycinnamates IIa-IIf, each species bearing one terminal furanone, have been synthesized and characterized by IR, 13 C NMR, 1 H NMR, MS spectra and elemental analysis.The mesogenic properties of both series of furanones have been studied by polarizing optical microscopy and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The relationship between structures and mesogenic properties was discussed. The results show that the increased alkoxy chain length (C 7 -C 12 ) and the… Show more
