Abstract
A new ferroelectric liquid crystalline compound, 2-butyloxycarbonyl)-P heny-4-(4-dodecyloxycarbonyl) benzoate (6), has been synthesized by es terification method. The DSC and optical microscopy studies reveals th at the compound exhibit ferroelectric and smectic phases at lower and higher temperatures respectively. The NMR & IR spectral studies have a lso been carried out to verify the ester linkage.
