Abstract
In the course of investigations on smectic polymorphism and of the coding of smectic phases by letters, an inverse denomination of the phases G and H came into use. Examples of this inverse use are demonstrated by the substances: 2-[4′-n-Pentylphenyl]-5-[4″-n-pentyloxyphenyl]pyrimidine (PPOP), Terephthalylidene-bi s- [4-n-butylaniline] (TBBA), and N-[4-n-butyl oxybenzyli dene]-4′-ethylaniline (BBEA).
