Abstract
Abstract The synthesis and mesomorphic properties of the 2-n-hexyl-6-(4-n-alkoxybenzoyloxy) quinoline series are described for alkoxy chain lengths varying from three to nine carbon atoms. Generally the lower homologs show a nematic and a smectic phase and the higher homologs only a smectic phase. X-ray and optical measurements indicate that the smectic phase can be classified as a probable smectic A phase. The transition temperatures are similar to those of the corresponding derivatives of naphthalene.
