Two new homologous series of compounds with a heterocyclic ring having sulfur and oxygen as a hetero atom derived from p-hydroxy acetophenone and alkoxy aniline containing cinnamate-azomethine as central linkages have been synthesized. viz. 4(furalacryloxy) α-methyl benzylidine-4′-alkoxy aniline and 4(thianylacryloxy) α-methyl benzylidine-4′-alkoxy aniline. The compound of both the series have been characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, 1H-NMR, and mass spectrometry method. Their liquid crystalline properties have been investigated by optical polarizing microscopy and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) studies. All the derivatives are mesomorphic in nature showing the nemetic phase. The mesomorphic properties of the present two series are compared with other structurally related series to evaluate the effect of thiophene and furan on mesomorphism.
