A new homologous series of liquid crystals viz. 4-(4′-n-alkoxy benzoyloxy)-3-chlorophenylazo-4″-acetylbenzenes are studied with a view to understand mesomorphic characteristics of the molecule. The nematic mesophase appeared as threaded type of texture. The first five and sixteenth homologues are nonmesomorphic. Mesomorphic property commences from the sixth member of the series as nematic type without exhibition of any smetic property. Transition temperatures are observed through hot stage polarizing microscope. Analytical data supports the structure.
