2,5-Diaryl-1,3,2-dioxaborinane derivatives having various terminal groups were synthesized and found to form mesomorphic phases in a wide temperature range. They provide a new series of liquid-crystalline compounds containing a boron atom in the principal structure.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
