The invention relates to a one-step process for the preparation of acryloyl group-containing liquid-crystalline monomers of the general formula (1)
(Z—Y1—A2—Y2—)mM(—O—A1-acrylate)n (1)
in which mesogenic alcohols of the general formula (2)
(Z—Y1—A2—Y2—)mM(OH)n (2)
are reacted with esters of 3-chloropropionic acid of the general formula (3)
ClPr—A1—X (3)
with elimination of HCl, where
acrylate is an acrylate radical,
ClPr is a 3-chloropropionate radical,
A1 are identical or different alkyl chain spacers having 2-20 carbon atoms, in which the carbon chain may be interrupted by non-adjacent ether, thioether, or imino groups,
A2 are radicals A1 or single chemical bonds,
M is a mesogenic group,
X is a leaving group,
Z are alkyl radicals or crosslinkable groups,
Y1 and Y2, independently of one another, are a single chemical bond, —O—, —S—, —O—CO—, —CO—O—, —O—CO—O, —CO—NR1—, —NR1—CO—, —O—CO—NR1—, —NR1—CO—O— or —NR1—CO—NR1—,
R1 is hydrogen or a C1-C4-alkyl radical,
n is 1, 2, 3 or 4, and
m is 0, 1, 2 or 3.
