The mean electronic polarisability (![[small alpha, Greek, macron]](https://www.rsc.org/images/entities/char_e0c2.gif)
) and the polarisability anisotropy (Δα) are determined for two series of metal-containing liquid crystals; comparison of the values with those of the free ligands clearly shows the dramatic increase in these parameters consequent on complexation to a transition metal.
