New N-arylidene (S)-1-phenylethylamines as the components of induced short-pitch cholesterics
New N-arylidene (S)-1-phenylethylamines with ester group in arylidene fragment have been synthesized. The chiral dopants helical twisting power and temperature dependence of the induced cholesteric helical pitch in LC systems based on 3-pentyl-4'-cyanobiphenyl have been studied as well as selective light reflection spectra and their temperature dependences for systems including nematic E63 (Merck) and new chiral components. An influence of the chiral dopant molecular structure on the mentioned characteristics of LC systems investigated was revealed. The induced cholesteric compositions with temperature-independent selective light reflection in visible range have been obtained.
