β¦ Synopsis
We report the molecular selfdrffusion constant D III the rsotropic phase of the homologous series of paraazo\yankole WAA) measured over a temperature range of about 10 K above the nematrc-rsotroprc transrtron temperature Tc by the variable field gradient spin echo techmque The constant D measured immedrately above Tc (=0.5 K) shows an "odd-even" effect sin&r to that of TC. But the activation energy W derived from the temperature dependence of D appears to show a Mferznt perrodrcrty. Sunilar perrodrcrty 1s also shown by Do (pre-eupcmentral factor) and by W/Tc.
