Abstract: | To investigate the effect of molecular polarity on the packing of liquid crystalline molecules, two liquid crystals, N,N-disubstituted aminophenylazo-4-alkylbenzenes, were synthesized and studied by single crystal structure determination. A comparison of the resulting molecular stacking with that of N,N -disubstituted aminophenylazo-4-butylbenzoate was made. |
