报道一系列４′－烷氧基－４－羟基联苯化合物的合成，并对合成方法及影响反应产率的因素进行探讨。通过热台偏光显微镜及差示扫描量热法（ＤＳＣ）对产物进行液晶性质的表征，对所得数据进行了讨论。 A series of 4’-alkoxy-4-hydroxybiphenyl compounds were reported. The synthesis methods and the factors affecting the reaction yield were also discussed. The liquid crystal properties were characterized by hot stage polarizing microscope and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and the data obtained were discussed.
