A Novel Liquid-Crystalline Vinylcyclopropane-Derivative Bearing Cholesterol: Synthesis and Polymerization

Abstract: The synthesis of a liquid-crystalline vinycyclopropane, 1-ethoxycarbonyl-1-[5-(cholesteryloxycarbonyl)pentoxycarbonyl]-2-vinylcyclopropane (4), and its polymerization is described. The polymerization of 4 was carried out in toluene as solvent and with AIBN as free radical initiator at 708C. The obtained polymer also showed liquidcrystalline behavior similar to that of the monomer 4.

“…Thus, for example, LC VCP-derivatives bearing cholesterol were synthesised ( Figure 17). [50,51] For the cross-linking monomer VCP-1, a polymerisation shrinkage of only 0.2 vol.-% was determined, compared to 4.0 vol.-% of the corresponding dimethacrylate. Unfortunately, VCP-1 formed the mesophase at 32 8C and therefore was a solid at room temperature.…”
