Abstract

The invention discloses an azo liquid crystal monomer with reaction properties and a preparation method thereof. The structural formula of the compound is listed, wherein, the n1 is an integer between 6 and 14, n2 is an integer between 1 and 7 and n3 is an integer between 1 and 5; the substitute position of the dilute oxygen is the adjacent position or contraposition of alkoxy; a synthesis method of the compound is that: the substituted dilute oxygen pairs by alkoxy benzoic acid is adopted as raw material to obtain aniline compounds by processes of amidation and hoffman degradation reaction; then low temperature diazotization coupling is carried out to obtain the new liquid crystal compound. A central bridge bond of the liquid crystal monomer of the invention is the azo group and has optical activity and a side chain of the invention is double bonds with reactivity; at last, novel waist connected type macromolecule liquid crystal and liquid crystal elastomer are made by polymerization or graft the double bonds to macromolecule main chain. The invention has easy obtained raw material, simple and safe operation and being applied to such fields as non-linear optical materials, optical information storage, optical switch, display, artificial muscles, shape memory and biomedicine.

Description

(1) Technical field [0001] The invention relates to an azo liquid crystal compound in the field of chemistry, in particular to an azo liquid crystal monomer with reactive properties and a preparation method thereof. (2) Background technology [0002] Liquid crystals have both the fluidity of liquids and the anisotropic characteristics of crystals. Using their anisotropic characteristics under the action of light, electricity, magnetism and heat, liquid crystals are widely used in display, information, biomedicine and smart materials superior. In 1950, A. Elliot introduced liquid crystal properties into polymer materials, obtained a new liquid crystal polymer material, and broadened the application range of liquid crystals. In 1981, H. Finkelmann first synthesized liquid crystal elastomers. He combined the alignment order of liquid crystals with the entropy elasticity of polymer networks to obtain this new type of polymer with excellent performance that can be used in smart ...
