Summary A new nematic monomer — p-(ɛ -acryloyloxycaproyloxy)p-methoxyphenylbenzoate — was synthesized. A homepolymer of this monomer and its copolymer with cholesteryl-ɛ-acryloyloxycapronate were prepared by radical polymerization. The homopolymer forms the mesophase of nematic type. The copolymer forms the cholesteric mesophase that shows selective light reflection. The maximum wavelength of the reflected light is equal to 495–500 nm and is not changed on temperature.
