Abstract

New liquid-crystalline 2-(4-cyanophenyl)-5-(4-alkyl- and alkoxyphenyl)pyridines were obtained by condensation of 1-dimethylamino-3-dimethylimmonia-2-(4-alkyl- or alkoxyphenyl)-1-propene perchlorates with 4-cyanoacetophenone and subsequent conversion of the 1-dimethylamino-2-(p-alkyl- or alkoxyphenyl)-4-(p-cyanobenzoyl)-1,3-butadienes to 5-(4-alkyl- or alkoxyphenyl)-2-(4-cyanophenyl)pyrylium perchlorates and refluxing of the latter with ammonium acetate in acetic acid.
