In organic chemistry, atoms other than carbon and hydrogen are generally referred to as heteroatoms. The most common heteroatoms are nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur. Now I present to you an article called Twist-Bend Nematic Glasses: The Synthesis and Characterisation of Pyrene-based Nonsymmetric Dimers, published in 2021-03-01, which mentions a compound: 17696-11-6, mainly applied to pyrene liquid crystal dimer preparation twist bend nematic phase; glassy phase; liquid crystals; pyrene; spontaneous chirality; twist-bend nematic, Electric Literature of C8H15BrO2.
A selection of pyrene-based liquid crystal dimers I [n = 5, 6, 8, etc.] , II [n = 5, 6, 11, etc.] and III were prepared, containing either methylene-ether or diether linked spacers of varying length and parity. All the diether linked materials, II, exhibited conventional nematic and smectic A phases, with the exception of II [n = 11] which was exclusively nematic. The methylene-ether linked dimer, I with an even-membered spacer (n=5) was solely nematogenic, but odd-members (n=6, 8, 10) exhibited both nematic and twist-bend nematic phases. Replacement of the cyanobiphenyl fragment by cyanoterphenyl giving III, gave elevated melting and nematic-isotropic transition temperatures, and SmA and SmCA phases were observed on cooling the nematic phase. Intermol. face-to-face associations of the pyrene moieties drove glass formation, and all these materials had a glass transition temperature at or above room temperature The stability of the glassy twist-bend nematic phase allowed for its study using AFM, and the helical pitch length, PTB, was measured as 6.3 and 6.7 nm for I [n = 6, 8] , resp. These values were comparable to the shortest pitch of a twist-bend nematic phase measured to date.
