Synthesis and Photoswitching Properties of Liquid Crystals Derived from Myo-Inositol

A new series of unconventional liquid crystal molecules derived from myo-inositol core were synthesized by linking six azobenzene units having terminal double bonds as polymerizable functional groups to myoinositol. Differential scanning calorimetry, polarizing optical microscopy and X-ray diffracti...
