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.
Mesogenic naphthyl derivatives

Two new mesogenic homologous series of liquid crystalline naphthalene derivatives with different central linkages: 2- Naphthyl-4-n-alkoxybenzoates (I) and trans-2-Naphthyl -4-n –alkoxycinnamates(II), have been synthesized and characterized by a combination of elemental analysis and standard spectroscopic methods. Twelve compounds have been synthesized in both the series I and II. In series I, methoxy to n-pentyloxy derivatives are non mesogenic, n-hexyloxy to n-hexadecyloxy derivatives exhibit monotropic nematic mesophase. Smectic A mesophase commences from n-decyloxy derivatives as a monotropy and persist up to the last member synthesized. All the 12 compounds of series II exhibit mesomorphism. Methoxy to n-propyloxy derivatives exhibit monotropic nematic mesophse, and n-butyloxy to n-tetradecyloxy derivatives exhibit enantiotropic nematic mesophase. n-Hexayloxy to n-hexadecyloxy derivatives also exhibit enantiotropic smectic A mesophase. The mesomorphic properties of present series were compared with each other and with a structurally related mesogenic homologous series to evaluate the effects of central linkage on mesomorphism.
