## Abstract The synthesis of new chiral side‐chain liquid‐crystalline polysiloxanes containing p‐(allyoxy)benzoxy‐p‐chlorophenyl (ABCH) as mesogenic units and undecylenic acid menthol ester (UM) as chiral nonmesogenic units is presented. The chemical structures of monomers and polymers are confirme
## Abstract The synthesis of the new chiral monomer 4‐(10‐undecylen‐1‐yloxy)biphenyl‐4′‐[(__S__)‐2‐methyl‐1‐bu‐ toxy]benzoate (M~1~), the nematic crosslinking agent biphenyl 4,4′‐bis(10‐undecylen‐1‐yloxybenzoate) (M~2~), and the corresponding liquid‐crystalline elastomer is described. The chemical
## Abstract A series of new smectic and cholesteric liquid‐crystalline elastomers were prepared by graft polymerization of mesogenic monomer with the chiral and nonmesogenic crosslinking agent using polymethylhydrosiloxane as backbone. The chemical structures of the monomers and polymers obtained w
A four-step synthetic strategy was applied to achieve novel methacrylic monomers. 5-Norbornene-2,2-dimethanol was prepared from a Diels-Alder reaction of cyclopentadiene and acrolein, followed by the treatment of the adduct with an HCHO/ KOH/MeOH solution. The resulting 1,3-diol (1) was then acetali
