Abstract
A new series of chiral Schiff's bases containing 2-hydroxybenzilidenea niline moieties and their copper complexes were synthesized and studie d by differential scanning calorimetry, polarized optical microscopy, X-ray diffraction and EPR measurement. The results show that most of t he Schiff's bases and only two of the copper complexes exhibited chira l smectic liquid crystal phases.
