Thermotropic ionic liquid crystals by molecular assembly and ion pairing of 4,4′-bipyridinium derivatives and tris(dodecyloxy)benzenesulfonates in a non-polar solvent

The present work reports a simple and versatile pathway to incorporate redox-active 4,4'-bipyridinium ("viologen") units with two, three, or six charges into dynamically ordered liquid crystalline structures by ionic interactions. A detailed analysis of the structure-property relation...
