“Rod like” molecules with a cyano head group seldom exhibit a polymorphism with more than a nematic and a smectic A phase. The compound here reported presents a low temperature ordered mesophase which is shown to be of orthogonal smectic B type by the way of miscibi-lity observations in agreement with a recent X-ray characterization. This preliminary structural study also suggests some stimulating remarks about possible incommensurate periodicities in the three mesophases.
