The intermolecular interaction energies between a pair of 7-Hexyloxy-3-[4'-(3-methylbutyloxy) phenyl]-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one (HMBPB) molecules have been estimated with respect to translational and orientational motions. The complete neglect differential overlap (CNDO/S) method has been employed to calculate the net atomic charge and atomic dipole moment components at each atomic center. The modified Rayleigh-Schrodinger perturbation theory along with multicentered-multipole expansion method has been employed to evaluate the long-range intermolecular interactions, while a '6-exp' potential function has been assumed for short-range interactions. The total interaction energy values obtained through these computations have been used to calculate the probability of each configuration at room temperature (300K), and isotropic-smectic transition temperature (412.6K). Molecular arrangements inside a bulk of materials and smectic behavior of the compound in terms of their relative order have been discussed. Translational and rotational rigidity of the molecule has been analyzed to understand the smectic behaviour. The UV absorption profile has been estimated using CNDO/S, and INDO/S methods.
