Toward lanthanide-containing metallomesogens with tridentate ligands

Tridentate aromatic receptors L1–L4 containing the 2,6-bis(benzimidazol-2-yl)pyridine chelating unit are designed to exhibit thermotropic calamitic liquid-crystalline phases; the mesomorphic behaviour is essentially retained in the complex [LuL2(NO3)3].
