A new bent-core liquid crystal (LC) compound 4-Cyano-1,3-phenylenebis[4-(4-(S)-2-Dodecyloxypropionyloxyphenoxycarbonyl)benzoate] (CyPDB) consisting of O-dodecyl lactate substituted terephthalate based rod-like units which were located at 1,3-positions of 4-cyanoresorcinol central unit has been synthesized and LC/1.0% modified Fe3O4 nanocomposite has been prepared The effects of being the doped with 1.0% modified Fe3O4 (magnetite) nanoparticles on mesomorphic properties of the new bent-core liquid crystal, which exhibits an enantiotropic SmA phase with a ferroelec.-like switching, were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry, optical polarizing microscopy and electro-optic studies. The surface of Fe3O4 (magnetite) nanoparticles was modified with a silane surfactant, octadecyltrimethoxysilane (OTMS), used as a compatibilizer for the attractive interaction of liquid crystal mol. with Fe3O4 nanoparticles. The size, morphol. and distribution of modified Fe3O4 (magnetite) nanoparticles in LC host were investigated by using Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) and SEM (SEM). The magnetic properties of nanocomposite were studied using a vibrating-Sample Magnetometer (VSM). This study involved multiple reactions and reactants, such as 4-Benzyloxyphenol (cas: 103-16-2Product Details of 103-16-2).
4-Benzyloxyphenol (cas: 103-16-2) belongs to ethers. Esters are widespread in nature and are widely used in industry. In nature, fats are in general triesters derived from glycerol and fatty acids. Esters are responsible for the aroma of many fruits, including apples, durians, pears, bananas, pineapples, and strawberries. Many esters have the potential for conformational isomerism, but they tend to adopt an s-cis (or Z) conformation rather than the s-trans (or E) alternative, due to a combination of hyperconjugation and dipole minimization effects. The preference for the Z conformation is influenced by the nature of the substituents and solvent, if present. Lactones with small rings are restricted to the s-trans (i.e. E) conformation due to their cyclic structure.Product Details of 103-16-2
