Abstract

The molecular structure and conformational properties of the p-butoxybenzylidene-p′-propionyloxyphenylaniline molecule in the crystalline state and at temperatures of the crystal → nematic and nematic → isotropic liquid phase transitions were examined by AM1 calculations. It was found that the nematic → isotropic liquid phase transition is accompanied by a change in the molecular conformation.
