Abstract

Four derivatives of hexakis(4-alkoxybenzoyloxy)triphenylene, for which peripheral phenylene groups are fluorinated at the inner and the outer positions were studied for their mesomorphic behaviour to reveal that the alteration of fluorinated positions in the phenyl rings leads to a drastic change of the mesomorphism involving the thermal stability.
