A new homologous series of azomesogens, 4-(4′-n-alkoxy benzoyloxy)-2-methyl phenylazo-4″-methoxy benzenes is synthesized. Mesomorphism commences from the very first homologue of the series and continues upto tetradecyl derivative. Last hexadecyl derivative is nonmesomorphic. All mesomorphic homologues are enantiotropic nematic. Thus, present homologous series is purely nematogenic. The usual odd-even effect is observed in nematic-isotropic transition curve. Transition curve behaves in a normal manner. The average thermal stability and mesomorphic characteristics are compared with structurally similar homologous series. Series is of middle ordered melting type without display of smectic character even in the last member of the series.

Twelve laterally substituted new liquid crystalline compounds of the type 2-methyl-4'-substituted-4-(4''-alkoxybenzoyloxy)azobenzenes (I-XII) have been synthesised.All these are nematic liquid crystals with enantiotropic character.
