Abstract
The effects of structural modification of the chelating ligand on meso phase stability in a number of oxovanadium(IV) complexes has been stud ied. Enantiotropic phases are observed when the complexes exhibit smal l long-range associations together with anti-ferromagnetic dimerisatio n. If either case is not satisfied, monotropic phases are observed. Th e calamitic nature of the observed phases in rationalised in the conte xt of results obtained from molecular simulation experiments on the pa rent ligands.
