<sup>13</sup>C and <sup>2</sup>H NMR Study of Structure and Dynamics in Banana <i>B</i><sub>2</sub> Phase of a Bent-Core Mesogen
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In this paper, the difficulty in orienting the B(2) phase of the banana mesogen 1,3-Phenylene-bis 4-[4-(10-undecenyloxy)-benzoyloxy] benzoate (Pbis11BB) in a relatively high magnetic field is reported based on some observations using both (13)C and (2)H NMR. (2)H NMR spectra recorded for the two labeled isotopomers of Pbis11BB in the isotropic and B(2) phases are shown here. Preliminary results on the deuteron spin-spin relaxation (T(2)) data are reported at 61 MHz in order to underline the peculiar slow dynamics of banana-shaped liquid crystals (BLC), and these results are discussed in the framework of recent studies on similar BLC. The molecular structure and dynamics in the B(2) and crystalline phases are also studied by (13)C solid-state NMR techniques. The results also point to the slow dynamics in the B(2) phase of Pbis11BB. In particular, two-dimensional MAS exchange experiment has been performed to shed light on the molecular conformation structure of the five-ring banana core in the crystalline phase of Pbis11BB, and to compare with that of quantum mechanical calculations reported in the literature.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
