Abstract: Three chiral liquid crystals with Schiff base group have been prepared.The struc-tures of the liquid crystals were confirmed by elemeiltal analysis and1H NMR. The phasetransition was investigated by the methods of polarized microscopy,DSC and WAXD,Theresults show that two of the liquid crystals are ferroelectric.
