Infrared spectra of bis (β-diketonato) copper (Ⅱ) complex liquid crystals with different flexible chain lengths (the carbon number=12 and 14) have been studied as a function of temperature. Conformational changes in mesogenic cores of the molecules have been characterized by using the out-of-plane bending vibration mode of aromatic C-H bonds. The result shows that for the phenylene rings and the chelate rings of the molecules there occurred an enhancement of extended conjugation of the two π-electron systems during phase transitions, which was also supported by UV measurements. It suggests that the big quasi-planar core structure in the discotic complex consisted of four phenylene rings and the central chelate rings is not maintained in every phase.
