AbstractA number of new chiral binaphthol (BN) derivatives with different substituents in the 6,6'-positions in open and bridged forms have been synthesized. Their possible liquid crystalline properties and their helical twisting power (B) of three different nematic liquid crystals (LCs) were investigated. Derivatives with spatially extended substituents in the 6,6'-positions (e.g. styryl or vinil) show unusual high helical twisting power (up to 120 μm–1). A direct correlation between the magnitude of β and the length of the substituents was found.From the different temperature dependence of β of the open and bridged BNs, a molecular model was developed relating the molecular conformation and twisting power
