E.S.R behaviour of various nitroxide probes dissolved in two mesomorphic compounds of the homologous series methoxy-benzylidene-alkyl-cinnamates is investigated. Probe alignment by the mesomorphic host molecules is not unique in smectic phases; intercalation of the probe between the smectic layers occurs, depending on the comparative strength of lateral and interlayer correlations.
