Single Crystal Structure Determination and Molecular Modeling of Ethyl 4-{[4-(Dodecanoyloxy)Phenyl]Diazenyl}Benzoate; Various Mesogenic Behaviors from Different Lengths of Alkyl Chains

The molecular stacking and conformation of ethyl 4‐{[4‐(dodecanoyloxy)phenyl]diazenyl}benzoate was established on the basis of crystallographic data and further compared with those of 4‐{[4‐(decanoyloxy)phenyl]diazenyl}benzoate and 4‐{[4‐(octanoyloxy)phenyl]diazenyl}benzoate. The variation of mesoge...

Description
Summary:The molecular stacking and conformation of ethyl 4‐{[4‐(dodecanoyloxy)phenyl]diazenyl}benzoate was established on the basis of crystallographic data and further compared with those of 4‐{[4‐(decanoyloxy)phenyl]diazenyl}benzoate and 4‐{[4‐(octanoyloxy)phenyl]diazenyl}benzoate. The variation of mesogenic behaviors resulting from the different lengths of alkyl chains was also studied.
