Two homologous series based on three linking groups have been synthesized and well characterized by elemental analyses and spectroscopic techniques such as Fourier transform infrared [FT-IR] and proton magnetic resonance magnetic resonance [1H NMR] spectroscopy. The mesomorphic properties of these compounds were observed by using optical polarized microscopy (POM) and confirmed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis. In this present investigation, we have synthesized two homologous series viz. (E)-4-(3-(4-(tetra decanoyloxy) phenyl) acryloyl) phenyl-4-n-alkoxy benzoate (Series-1) and 4-((E)-3-(4-(((E)-3-(4-n-alkoxy phenyl) acryloyl) oxy) phenyl)-3-oxo prop-1-en-1-yl) phenyl tetradecanoate (Series-2). Both of the series are differing with respect to the first linking group. All the homologous in following series displays LC properties on heating as well as cooling condition except first four homologous (C1 to C4) in series-1 and six homologous (C1 to C6) in series-2. To get more insights, the HOMO, LUMO studies are carried out which supports intramolecular charge transfer interactions in this class of mesogens.

A novel homologous series of liquid crystalline properties is synthesized and studied with a view to understand the effect of molecular structure on its thermotropic properties. Novel homologous series consisted of thirteen homologs. All the homologs are enantiotropically smectogenic with absence of nematic property even in the monotropic condition. Textures of the homologs as observed through an optical hot stage polarizing microscopy. The mesophase temperature range vary minimum from 6.0°C to a maximum 37.0°C at the methyloxy and propyloxy derivatives of a series respectively with its thermal stability (Sm–I) 127.0°C. Transition curves of a phase diagram behaved in normal manner. Odd–even effect is observed for Sm–I transition curve.

A novel homologous series containing vinyl ester and azomethane central bridges and n-alkoxy as well as 3″,4″-dimethyl groups as flexible terminal/lateral groups viz. RO?C6H4?CH = CH?COO?C6H4?N?CH?C6H3-(CH3)2 have been synthesized and studied with a view to establishing the relation between molecular structure and thermotropic liquid crystal (LC) properties with reference to molecular flexibility within the series. The series consists of twelve homologues (C1 to C16). C6 and C7 homologues are smectogenic plus nematogenic and C8 to C16 homologues are only smectogenic, and the rest of the homologues (C1 to C5) are nonmesomorphic. Transition temperatures and the textures of the homologues were determined using an optical polarizing microscope equipped with a heating stage (POM). The textures of a nematic phase are threaded or Schlieren and that of a smectic phase are of the A or C type. Analytical, thermal and spectral data support the molecular structures. Smectic and nematic thermal stabilities are 116.85°C and 147.5°C, respectively. Whose Sm?N/I and N-I mesophase lengths are varied between 15°C to 21°C and 25°C to 62°C, respectively. The novel compounds are compared with structurally-similar series.
