Abstract
New liquid-crystalline azomethines — 2-(4-alkoxybenzylideneamino)-4-(3-nitrophenylamino)thiazoles —displaying nematic mesomorphism at 42–137°C have been synthesized. The structure of these compounds was studied by the MNDO LCAO MO method. A correlation was found between the geometric parameters and liquid crystal properties.
