Reaction Steps

Mono-O-(5,9,13-trimethyltetradecyl)pentaerythritol (formula (12) above) and pure water were homogeneously mixed in accordance with the same procedure as in Example 3 to obtain the sample of mono-O-(5,9,13-trimethyltetradecyl)pentaerythritol/water system. The sample of mono-O-(5,9,13-trimethyltetradecyl)pentaerythritol/water system was subjected to the penetration experiment under a polarizing microscope, SAXS analysis, and dhc value determination based on the results of SAXS analysis in the same manner as in Example 3. As a result, bicontinuous type II Pn3m cubic liquid crystals were found to be stably formed at least in a temperature range between 1° C. and 4° C. and at a concentration of 55.3% by mass of mono-O-(5,9,13-trimethyltetradecyl)pentaerythritol.
