Abstract

Abstract Nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds of the formula II ##STR1## wherein R 1 and R 2 in each case denote an alkyl group having 1 to 15 C atoms, wherein one or more CH 2 groups may also be replaced by a grouping selected from the group comprising --O--, --S--, --CO--, --O--CO--, --O--COO--, --CO--O--, --CH═CH--, --CH--halogen and --CHCN--, or else by a combination of two suitable groupings, two heteroatoms not being directly linked to each other, m denotes 0 or 1, Ar denotes 1,4-phenylene, 4,4'-biphenylyl or 2,6-naphthylene, wherein one or more CH groups are in each case replaced by N, Z denotes --C--O--, --O--CO--, --CH 2 O--, --OCH 2 --, --CH 2 CH 2 --, --CH 2 CHCN--, --CHCNCH 2 --, --CH═CH or a single bond, and A denotes unsubstituted 1,4-cyclonexylene or 11,4-cyclohexylene substituted in position 1 or position 4 by CN, with the proviso that if A=unsubstituted 1,4-cyclonexylene, Z denotes --CHCNCH 2 -- or --CH 2 CHCN-- and/or at least one CH 2 group is replaced by --CHCN-- in at least one of the radicals R 1 and R 2 , are suitable for use as components of smectic liquid-crystalline phases.

Claim 1
Independent Claim 231 words
A nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound of the formula ##STR14## wherein R 1 and R 2 in each case denote a straight-chain alkyl group having 1 to 15 C atoms, wherein one or more CH 2 groups can be replaced by a grouping selected from the group comprising --O--, --S--, --CO--, --O--CO--, --O--COO--, --Co--O--, --CH═CH--, or a combination of two of said groupings with the proviso that two heteroatoms are not directly linked to each other, or one of R 1 and R 2 denotes an optically active organic radical of the formula ##STR15## wherein X denotes --CO--O, --O--CO--, --O--CO--O--, --CO--, --O--, --S--, --CH═CH--, --CH═CH--COO--or a single bond, Q denotes alkylene containing 1 to 5 C atoms, wherein a CH 2 group not linked to X may also be replaced by --O--, --CO--, --O--CO--, --CO--O--, or --CH═CH--, or a single bond, Y denotes CN, halogen, methyl or methoxy, and R denotes an alkyl group differing from Y and containing 1 to 18 C atoms; m denotes 0 or 1; Ar denotes one of the following formulae ##STR16## or the mirror image thereof, and if m ═1, Ar can also denote 1,4-phenylene, wherein one or more CH groups are replaced by N; denotes --CO--O--, --O--CO--, --CH 2 O--, --OCH 2 --, --CH 2 CH 2 --, --CH═CH--or a single bond; and A denotes a group of the formula ##STR17## or the mirror image thereof.
