Abstract

An ethynyl-substituted nickel(II) phthalocyanine has been synthesised and its thermotropic properties studied; optical microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques revealed an unusual mesomorphic behaviour observed for the first time in phthalocyanine systems where each disk of the hexagonal columnar mesophase is formed by two ethynyl-substituted phthalocyanine units.
