Abstract
Do hydrogen bonds influence the behavior of the phases of amphiphilic ''cyanobiphenyls''? Diol 1 forms, for example, a nematic mesophase. By the addition of H2O or the incorporation of further OH groups. the pa rallel movement of the molecules is hindered, and a smectic layer stru cture is induced.
