Abstract
Surprisingly, two-ring mesogens with a phenyl ring containing lateral segment can show liquid-crystalline behaviour. Linking to a polysiloxa ne backbone can be realized via three different para positions of the mesogens. Polymorphism and mesophase stabilization depend strongly on the position and type of substituents as well as on the length and pos ition of the spacer.
