| Abstract | A new class of metallomesogens contg. $\beta$-diketone derivs. with octahedral structures are described. The observation of liq. crystallinity in these materials was unexpected as a result of their low aspect ratios. To better understand these materials, the dependence of the mesomorphism on the no. of sidechains (N) and metal center was investigated. [on SciFinder(R)] |
