Abstract
New pyridinium type thermotropic ionic liquid crystal materials having a 1,3-dithiane ring in their central core, substituted-4-(5-aIkyl-1,3 -dithian-2-yl)pyridinium bromides (8), were synthesized. These compoun ds exhibited a smectic A phase over a very wide temperature range incl uding room temperature.
