“…For low molar mass mesogens, reductions in the entropy change associated with the liquid crystal-isotropic transition are most often interpreted in terms of an increase in the molecular biaxiality arising from, for example, chain branching (Yeap et al, 2009;Imrie, 1989) or changes to the mesogenic core structure Donaldson et al, 2010;Blatch et al, 1997). Such an interpretation, however, cannot account for the entropy changes seen here.…”

“…Numerous good examples of this kind of system exist, ranging from (S)-2-methylbutyl derived Schiff's base materials (130)(131)(132)(133)(134) [179,180], 1-methylheptyl derived biphenyl ester systems (135)(136)(137) [181,182], 1-methylheptyl derived salicylaldimines (138) [183] to cyanostilbene-derived 2-methylbutyloxy systems (139) [184]. These are shown below along with typical properties of their chiral nematic phases.…”

“…Finally, mention should be made of cholesteryl dimers (163), which were synthesized by esterification of α,ω-alkanedioic acids using cholesterol (157), DCC and 4-N,N -dimethylaminopyridine, at room temperature [180]. Depending on the spacer length, these materials gave enantiotropic or monotropic N* phases with high melting points (167-221 • C).…”

“…14 A utilização de monômeros quirais derivados do colesterol seria uma alternativa interessante para avaliar o efeito da quiralidade. 15 No entanto, os ésteres colestéricos são naturalmente cristais líquidos, o que mascararia a capacidade indutora de formação de mesofases do anel isoxazolínico.…”
