Abstract
A new six-ring double-swallow-tailed compound is presented which exhib its a re-entrant smectic C phase in the sequence smectic C-oblique col umnar-smectic C-nematic. This unusual sequence detected by observation of the optical textures and by X-ray investigations is also confirmed by the phase diagrams with homologous compounds.
