Abstract
Results on the studies of interactions of monovalent metal ions such a s Li+ and Ag+ in LiClO4, LiBF4 and AgNO2 with ligands like acetonitril e, dimethyl sulphoxide, pyridine and acetone in thermotropic liquid cr ystals are reported. They indicate the formation of metal ion-ligand a nd metal ion-liquid crystal complexes. At least two types of complexes for each metal ion-ligand have been detected. One of these is tetrahe dral, providing 'isotropic-like' spectra in the liquid crystalline med ia.
