Conformational transitions in capsulated polymer liquid crystal films
It was shown that the most stable conformation of the 7CB molecule (X≡OCH3, OC3H7) in the initial state is considered to be the twist conformation with the rotation angle of the monomeric isomerism. It was found that the rotation of benzene rings relative to each other is accompanied by a change in the relative orientation of the interacting orbitals of the bridging carbon atoms of the rings. It was revealed that the lengthening of the aliphatic chain in the C3H7 fragment does not lead to noticeable changes in the features of the geometric structure of the molecule.
