Copper, nickel and palladium complexes with N-(4-(4'-n-alkoxybenzoyloxy) salicylidene)-4-n-butylaniline and N-(4-(4'-n-hexadecyloxybenzoyloxy) salicylidene)-4-n-alkoxyaniline have been synthesized.The copper and palladium derivatives show mesomorphic properties and exhibit a nematic phase over a large temperature range.In contrast, the nickel derivatives do not show any mesomorphic behavior.The liquid-crystalline-phase transitions were determined using a differential scanning calorimeter and a polarizing microscope.All these physical characteristics are compared and discussed.
