Abstract

Viologens possessing three alkoxy chains at each terminal self-organize into columnar liquid-crystalline phases through nanophase segregation and electrostatic interactions. These viologens are redox-active and susceptible to two consecutive electrochemical reductions.

One-dimensional ion transport in self-organized columnar ion...
