Abstract
In this paper, we present the results of studies on the synthesis and properties of a series of liquid–crystalline lanthanide complexes of imine ligands. We describe the liquid–crystalline behaviour as a function of the metal, ligand and anion employed and we report on the nature of the coordination between different ligand types and the metal centre.Keywords
