Ob. Akopova et al., SYNTHESIS, STRUCTURE, AND DISCOTIC MESOMORPHISM OF THE NEW SERIES OF COPPER CARBOXYLATES, Russian chemical bulletin, 44(7), 1995, pp. 1210-1214
The synthesis, structure, and mesomorphism of a new series of copper c
arboxylates are described. The influence of periphery of the chelate n
ode on the appearance of discophase is studied. A stacked hexagonal st
ructure of copper erucate is proved. The effect of restructuring of th
e chelate node in this compound after its isothermic exposure, causing
the loss of mesomorphism is revealed.
