This Review covers the recent developments (2005–2015) in the design, synthesis,
characterization, and application of thermotropic ionic liquid crystals. It was designed to give …

Liquid crystals are considered as the “fourth state of matter”. 1 Their properties are
intermediate between that of the crystalline solid state and that of the liquid state. Liquid …

Dans ce travail, on présente une revue des travaux effectués dans le domaine de la chimie
du Au (I) NHC. On discute de l'efficacité des diverses stratégies de synthèse des Au (I) NHC …

Ionic liquids and ionic liquid crystals of imidazolium salts composed of various transition and
main group metals have been reviewed. Ionic metal complexes of imidazoles and N …

Interest in ionic liquids has grown markedly in recent years. The syntheses, characterization
and properties of quaternary alkyl-substituted ammonium, imidazolium, triazolium and …

The convergence of two distinct fields of ionic liquid chemistry, those of imidazolium salts
and liquid crystals, could lead to a vast range of new materials.[1] Uniting the properties of …

N‐Alkyl‐N‐methylpyrrolidinium cations have been used for the design of ionic liquid
crystals, including a new type of uranium‐containing metallomesogen. Pyrrolidinium salts …

N-(Ferrocenylmethyl) imidazole (3a), 1-(ferrocenylmethyl)-1, 2, 4-triazole (3b), 1, 1 '-bis [(1 H-
imidazol-1-yl) methyl] ferrocene (8a), 1, 1 '-bis {[1 H-(2-methyl) imidazol-1-yl] methyl] …

A series of metal ion-containing ionic liquids [Bmim] 2 [MCl4](M= Sn, Cu, Ni, Mn, Fe, Co, Zn,
and Pt;[Bmim]= 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium) and [Bmim] 2 [ZrCl6] were synthesized and …

Metal-containing ionic liquids have been known for several decades and the scope of their
applicability is currently extending. The review briefly considers four key types of these ionic …
