Abstract

A series of aryl-substituted β-diketonate adducts with 5,5′-di(heptadecyl)-2,2′-bipyridine has been synthesised. All the compounds exhibit a mesomorphic (smectic) behaviour. It has been shown that the metal ion does not drastically influence the mesophase type and the transition temperatures. A thin film of Eu(III) complex shows more effective luminescence in the aligned state.
