Abstract A new series of disk-like complexes, bis[1,3-di(p-n-alkoxyphenyl)propane-1,3-dionato]copper(II) (abbreviated as CnO-Cu, n = 1-12), has been synthesized. It was found that each of the complexes from C3O-Cu to C12O-Cu is a discogen, and that each of them has only one discotic mesophase. C3O-Cu is the first compound substituted by the shortest side chains in the discogen, so far as we know. The mesomorphic textures could be observed as mosaic textures for C3O-Cu ~ C5O-Cu and as big broken fan-like textures for C6O-Cu ~ C12O-Cu. The cutectic point calculated from Le Chatelier-Schroder relations agrees well with the found eutectic point in the binary phase diagram between C8O-Cu and C8-Cu. This is the first example of such agreement in the discogens of the organic transition metal complexes. It has been established for the first time from X-ray diffraction measurements that each of the discotic mesophases in the complexes from C6O-Cu to C12O-Cu is a discotic lamellar phase. It becomes clear that this ...
