The energies of interaction of alkyl chain segments with the nematic and smectic C medium are determined from analysis of the DMR spectra of 70BA, 80BA, and HOAB. The orientational order of the outer segments is found to result mainly from direct intermolecular interactions. A linear relation is obtained between the orientational and conformational energy of the chain.
