Polymer Bulletin Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Iron-containing aromatic copolyesters were synthesized from 1,1′-bis-(chlorocarbonyl)ferrocene, terephthaloyl chloride, isophthaloyl chloride and methylhydroquinone. The copolymers obtained were characterized for their liquid crystalline properties by a variety of methods, and all of the copolyesters synthesized were nematic.
