Luminescent complexes with general formula [(C^N)2Ir(N^N)]OCOCH3, where C^N = 2-phenylpyridine (ppy) and N^N = 2,2ʹ-bipyridine (bpy), self-assemble into ordered ‘soft’ viscous mesophases of chromonic type. By changing the ancillary ligand with 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), a new mesomorphic complex was obtained. The self-assembly into ordered liquid crystalline phases of chromonic type in water was investigated by comprehensive rheological and photophysical studies. By changing the ancillary ligand bpy with phen, assembly into smaller, more symetric aggregates is favoured, resulting in lower viscosity and more dynamic mesophase.

Abstract
Luminescent complexes with general formula [(C^N)2Ir(N^N)]OCOCH3, where C^N = 2-phenylpyridine (ppy) and N^N = 2,2ʹ-bipyridine (bpy), self-assemble into ordered ‘soft’ viscous mesophases of chromonic type. By changing the ancillary ligand with 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), a new mesomorphic complex was obtained. The self-assembly into ordered liquid crystalline phases of chromonic type in water was investigated by comprehensive rheological and photophysical studies. By changing the ancillary ligand bpy with phen, assembly into smaller, more symetric aggregates is favoured, resulting in lower viscosity and more dynamic mesophase.File in questo prodotto:
