A new series of three ring type liquid crystalline compounds containing partially fluorinated alkenyl or alkyl side chains together with fluorine substituted cyclohexylbiphenyls were designed and synthesized in this study. The structures of synthe sized compounds were established by 1 H, 13 C and 19 F NMR spectroscopy. The phase transition temperatures of fluorinated liquid crystalline compounds were determined by cross-polarizing mi-croscopy equipped withhot stage. All compounds were found to have nematic liquid crystalline phase with rel-atively low phase transition temperature and wide liquid crystalline temperature range. The dependence of phase transition temperatures on the chainlength falls into three categories; (a) decreasing transition tempera-tures for 4-fluoro-4'-[4-fluoro-4-(1-fluoroalkyl)cyclohexyl]biphenyl (15) series, (b) higher transition tempera-tures for odd numbered chains for 4-fluoro-4'-[4-fluoro-4-(1-fluoroalk-1-enyl)cyclohexyl]biphenyl (14) series, (c) higher transition temperatures for even numbered chains for 4-[4-(1,2-difluoroalk-1-enyl)-4-fluorocyclo-hexyl]-4'-fluorobiphenyl (16) series.

A series of new liquid crystalline dimesogenic compounds with chiral tails was synthesized, and their thermal and liquid crystalline properties were studied. The chain length of the central polymethylene spacers (x) was varied from dimethylene (2) to decamethylene (12). These compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, IR and NMR spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and cross-polarizing microscopy. All compounds were found to be enantiotropically liquid crystalline, and the values of melting ($T_m$) and isotropization temperature ($T_i$) as well as enthalpy change (Δ$H_i$) and entropy change for isotropization (Δ$S_i$) decreased in a zig-zag fashion revealing the so-called odd-even effect as x increases. Their mesomorphic properties fall into three categories depending upon x; (a) compounds with x=2 and 4 formed two different mesophases, smectic and cholesteric phases in that order on heating, and vice versa on cooling, (b) compounds with x=3, 7, 8, 10 and 11 reversibly formed only the cholesteric phase, and (c) compounds with x=5, 6, 9 and 12 exhibited only a cholesteric phase on heating, whereas on cooling they formed two different mesophases, cholesteric and smectic phases, sequentially.

방향족 Schiff base 메소제닉 단위와 폴리메틸렌 유연격자로 이루어진 한 계열의 주사슬 액정중합체와 네 계열 화합물의 액정성을 살펴보았다. 이들의 열적 성질과 액정성은 시차 주사 열분석기와 가열판이 부착된 편광현미경에 의하여 조사하였다. 중합체와 화합물 액정상의 성질은 중앙 폴리메틸렌 유연격자와 말단 알콕시기의 길이에 크게 의존하였다. 중합체 I과 계열 III 화합물은 녹는점과 등방성액체화 전이온도에서 짝수-홀수 효과를 보여 주었으나 계열 II와 IV 화합물은 등방성액체화 전이온도에서만 짝수-홀수 효과를 나타내었다. 편광현미경을 통하여 이들의 광학구조를 관찰하였을 때 네마틱과 스멕틱 액정상을 형성하였다.

정보전자 기기의 디스플레이용 재료로 사용되는 액정/고분자 복합재료의 매트릭스로 사용하기 위한 새로운 선형 및 가교형 측쇄 액정고분자를 제조하기 위하여 필요한 저분자 액정 중간체들을 합성하고 이들의 액정 특성을 살펴보았다. Alkyl spacer의 길이가 다르고 연결기로서 azo기를 그리고 말단기로서 cyano를 공통적으로 가지고 다른 한 말단기로서 bromoalkyl(AZO(n)), azidoalkyl(AZI(n)) 및 amonoalkyl(ALC(n))기를 가지는 저분자 액정 들의 합성을 하였으며 IR, NMR 및 원소분석을 통하여 이를 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 DSC thermogram 및 편광현미경 관찰로부터 이들 저분자 액정들은 모두 일정한 온도 영역에서 네마틱 상의 액정성을 발현하는 것을 알았다. 또한, 저분자 액정 분자들이 spacer 길이, 즉 $-(CH_2)n-$의 n이 짝수 및 홀수로 변화함에 따라 분자 내의 conformation 변화에 따른 $T_{KN}$과 $T_{NI}$의 값이 전형적인 even-odd 변화 현상을 나타내었다.

Three ring type liquid crystalline compounds having 4-alklycyclohexyl group, 1,2-difluorobenzene and phenylisothiocyanate moieties as main skeleton were designed to have negative dielectricity. However, the compounds with 2,3,2'-trifluoro-3'-isothiocyanated biphenylcyclohexane core did not exhibit the nematic liquid crystalline phase because of two conformers by interaction of isothiocyanate and adjacent fluorine atoms. Also, 4-alkyl-2,2',3'-trifluoro-3-isothiocyanated biphenylcyclohexane core was designed expecting to have uniform conformers of isothiocyanate group. In the course of developing polyimides for VA mode LCD, we synthesized alkyl-3,5-diaminobenzene efficiently with various length of alkyl chains from commercially available di-t-butyl malonate and 3,5-dinitrobenzoyl chloride as starting material.

Three-ring types liquid crystalline compounds having fluoro and isothiocyanate substituent were synthesized and their physical and electro-optical properties were measured to evaluate the applications to active matrix VA liquid crystal displays. The tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) catalyzed cross coupling of aryl boronic acids with aryl halides is used to prepare trans-4'-Alkoxy-2,3-difluoro-3'-isothiocyanato-4-(4-alkylcyclohexyl}-biphenyl series. The synthesized compounds showed the nematic liquid crystalline phase and the negative dielectric anisotropy. The prepared mixtures showed faster response time and lower threshold voltage than their host mixture.

A series of new liquid crystalline compounds having two identical mesogenic terminal units, the 4-(p-nitrobenzoyloxy)phenoxy group, attached to both ends of a central polymethylene spacer of various lengths was prepared. The mesomorphic properties of the compounds were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and by polarizing microscopy. Almost all of the compounds formed monotropic nematic mesophases. The trimethylene spacer compound was found to be non-liquid crystalline, while the one with the hexamethylene central spacer was enantiotropic. A thermodynamic analysis was performed for the phase transitions of the compounds and the results are discussed in relation to their liquid crystal properties.

본 연구에서는 분자 내 하나의 페닐고리의 4-, 3,5-, 또는 3,4,5- 위치에 아조-메소젠기가 각각 결합된 화합물들을 합성하고 이들의 액정성 및 광화학성에 대하여 조사하였다. Azo1과 Azo2 계열의 화합물은 각각 선형과 평면형의 구조이며, Azo3 계열의 화합물은 비교적 부피가 큰 구조를 하고 있는 것으로 조사되었다. 화합물 BA-Azo2와 BA-Azo3는 액정성을 나타내지 않았고, BE-Azo1와 BE-Azo2는 단방성 액정성을, 나머지 화합물들은 양방성 액정성을 나타냈다. 이러한 액정 거동은 분자 내 아조-메소젠기의 존재로부터 부여된 것으로 액정성을 나타내는 대부분의 화합물들은 스멕틱상을 형성하였다. 그리고 모든 RM-AzoX 화합물들은 분자 내 아조기의 존재로 인하여 광 이성질현상을 나타냈으며, 광 이성질화 속도는 RM-Azo3 < RM-Azo1 < RM-Azo2의 순서로 조사되었으며, 이는 아조벤젠기 주위의 입체 장애에 의존하는 것으로 생각된다. 이러한 결과들로부터, 화합물의 액정성과 광화학적 성질들은 분자 내 페닐고리에 결합된 아조-메소젠기의 결합위치나 개수에 기인한다는 것을 알 수 있었다.
