Addition reaction of the malonate-based second-generation ferrocene-containing liquid-crystalline dendrimer 16 to [60]fullerene led to the title compound 1. Molecule 1 showed good solubility in common organic solvents and good thermal stability. Examination of its mesomorphic properties revealed the presence of an enantiotropic smectic A phase, which was identified by...

Addition reaction of mesomorphic malonate-based dendrimers (up to the fourth generation) with C60 gave liquid-crystalline fullerene derivatives. The cyanobiphenyl unit was used as liquid-crystalline promoter. The malonates presented nematic and/or smectic A phases. The fullerenes showed only smectic A phases, with the exception of the second generation dendrimer for which smectic A and...
