Abstract
Novel fullerene C60 contg. liq. cryst. dendrimers and hemi-dendrimers have been characterized by the method of electro-optical Kerr effect and detn. of the permanent dipole moment, sensitive to the mol. polar ordering and anisotropy of polarizability, and by hydrodynamic methods in soln. An influence of the covalently bonded fullerene on the polarity, electro-optical, and viscometric properties of fullerene derivs. have been detected, analyzed, and concluded that fullerene produces a change in the original ordering in dendritic mols., which mainly resulted in correction of the shape asymmetry of these mols. as a whole.
