Mesomorphic and Thermal Behavior of Symmetric Bent-Core Liquid Crystal Compounds Derived from Resorcinol and Isophthalic Acid

Bent-core liquid crystals (BCLC) have been widely studied as a result of their unusual polar and chiral properties. Similar to calamitic and discotic molecules, BCLC molecules also exhibit nematic phases, besides other higher order mesophases. The aim of this work is to comparatively analyze the mes...
