Abstract
Five new chiral liquid crystal systems induced by intermolecular hydro gen bonding between 4-[(S)-2-chloro-3-methyl]butyroyloxy-4'-stilbazole (MBSB, proton acceptor) and 4-alkoxybenzoic acids (nBA, proton donors ) were prepared. Their liquid crystalline properties were investigated by DSC and polarized optical microscopy. Chiral nematic and chiral sm ectic phases were observed, and the thermal stability of one complex w as studied through temperature dependent infrared spectroscopy.
