✦ Synopsis


The twisting power (0) of tris(pcntane-?,Cdionato)mctal(IlI) complcses

was measured in different ncmatic liquid crystals at variable temperature.

The results ilie discussed in the li;;ht of current theories of cholcsteric induction.

A model is proposed to cxpbin the high values of p observed.
