40. The sense of the helix (whether left- or right-handed) is of no significance to this work. Nevertheless, the helices generated by additive 1 are expected to be left-handed, based on empirical rules described in Booth, C. J. in Handbook of Liquid Crystals, ed., D. Demus, J. Goodby, G. W. Gray, H.-W. Spiess and V. Vill, Wiley-VCH, Weinheim, 1998, vol. 2A, p. 309

54. The geometrical parameters for each ring were calculated (HF/6-31G(d)) and corrected for H and C (benzene) van der Waals radii (1.2 Å and 1.7 Å respectively): A: d = 7.43 Å, B: d = 6.72Å, C: d = 6.66 Å
