A prototype cinnamate based main chain liquid crystalline polymer was synthesized and characterized.Its photochemistry was studied in the form of a thin film.The polymer undergoes photochemical crosslinking.Major photoreactions are postulated as 2+2 cycloaddition and photo-Fries rearrangement.

Six Twin dimeric compounds having two rigid cores connected by a central spacer group are described.Two types of rigid units, 4-pentyloxyphenyl cinnamates and 4-cyano-4'-oxybiphenyl, were employed.The spacer groups were pentamethylene (PM), diethylene oxi
