Abstract
Two series of novel tolane-type liquid crystals (LCs) comprising of hydrogen-bonded organic acids were synthesized. The formation of dimerized H-bond LCs was confirmed by IR spectroscopy, and mesomorphic properties of the LCs were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and polarizing optical microscopy (POM). It was found that the end groups of the liquid crystals as well as the unsaturated rigid core had effect on the mesomorphic properties.
