The family of nematic liquid crystals has been recently enlarged with
the class of metallorganic molecules. Among them, AZPAC [4,4'-bis(hexi
loxy)-azoxybenzene-palladium complex] presents some unusual behavior a
s a transitory ''ferroelectric'' state, which we explain by considerin
g bound multimers of AZPAC of peculiar steric conformation. (C) 1995 A
