Abstract
Novel liquid crystalline 2-phenyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole based oligomers wi th three and four rigid aromatic units linked by a flexible central un it have been investigated by polarizing microscopy. The synthesis of t hese compounds and the influence of structural variations on the mesom orphic properties are described. The combination of suitable mesogenic moieties with appropriate central units leads to oligomers which exhi bit S-C phases.
