Notes:
The structure of bis(4,4′′-decyloxy-p-terphenyl-2′-ylmethyl) carbonate, C79H110O7, (I), has been determined at 123 K. It is a new type of twin mesogen. No two adjacent aromatic rings are coplanar and the four decyloxy side chains are maximally extended. Molecules of the compound are packed along the crystallographic a axis. The molecular arrangement is a precursor of a smectic A phase.
