Crystal structure, spectroscopic characterization, DFT analysis and thermal investigation of ( E )-2-(((6-chloropyridin-3-yl)imino)methyl)-5-alkoxyphenol Schiff base liquid crystals
Abstract
Ten ( E )-2-(((6-chloropyridin-3-yl)imino)methyl)-5-alkoxyphenol derivatives were synthesized. All of them exhibited enantiotropic SmA liquid crystalline behaviour, stabilized by intramolecular hydrogen bonding.
