Exploratory Synthesis and Characterization of Various Metallotropic Liquid-Crystalline Halides
(2008-04-17)
Metallotropic liquid crystals represent a new class of exceptionally metal-rich ordered fluid materials. Building on earlier work of the Martin group we explored many different synthesis techniques for liquid crystal metal ...
Toward Supramolecular Liquid-Crystalline Materials: Synthesis and Characterization of Platinum (II) Acetylide Complexes
(University of the South, 2011-04-29)
Bipyridine complexes of platinum (II) complexes have long been recognized to possess a host of interesting, and potentially useful, structural, optical and electronic properties. By elaborating the structure of the bipyridine ...
Electrochemical Characterization of Platinum (II) Bipyridine Liquid Crystals
(University of the South, 2011-04-29)
Liquid crystalline materials composed of a platinum center chelated by a bipyridine ring and additional ligands have been of immense interest in recent years for their interesting photochemical and electrochemical behavior. ...
Toward Liquid Crystalline Supramolecular Squares Based on PLatinum (II) Diimine Complexes
(University of the South, 2013-04)
Bipyridine complexes of platinum(II) possess a host of interesting, and potentially useful optical and electronic properties. Conjugating the [bpyPt(II)Cl2] chromophore to b-branched aliphatic fragments results in a new ...
