Asymmetric bisphenyl bibenzyl-4,4'-dicarboxylates with an alkenyloxy-
or the 10-undecenoylgroup in the p-position of one terminal benzene ri
ng and the butyl-, an alkoxy- or the thiomethylgroup in the p-position
of the other terminal benzene ring (12-14) are synthesized. The olefi
ns 12-14 are added to a poly(methylhydrogensiloxane) 15 to give mesomo
rphic side chain polysiloxanes 16-18. Data of liquid crystalline prope
rties of 12-14, 16-18 and precursors are discussed.
