We have observed 5 quasars with Chandra during Cycle 3. The observations were accompanied by VLA imaging at 15 GHz. X-ray emission is detected from all the jets except for 0923+392, whose double radio jet only extends out to the edge of the X-ray PSF.An especially prominent X-ray jet is seen in the gamma-ray blazar 0827+243:the radio jet does not even start until the X-ray jet first extends up to 5 arcsec from the nucleus (in the same direction as the radio parsec-scale jet) and then executes an apparent bend of about 80o before extending another 2 arcsec. We present the Chandra and VLA images of the 5 quasars and discuss X-ray emission mechanisms in quasars jets.
