Mixed-Valent Diruthenium (II,III) Long-Chain Carboxylates. 1. Molecular Design of Columnar Liquid-Crystalline Order
Six series of binuclear mixed-valent diruthenium tetracarboxylates of formula Ru2(O2CR)4X, containing different combinations of equatorial carboxylates (RCO2-) and anions (X-) have been synthesized and characterized, and their liquid-crystalline properties have been examined by optical microscopy un...

Six series of binuclear mixed-valent diruthenium tetracarboxylates of formula Ru2(O2CR)4X, containing different combinations of equatorial carboxylates (RCO2-) and anions (X-) have been synthesized and characterized, and their liquid-crystalline properties have been examined by optical microscopy under polarized light, differential scanning calorimetry, and powder X-ray diffraction studies. Three series derived from linear aliphatic carboxylates, Ru2(O2C-(CH2)n-2-CH 3)4X with X = Cl (n = 5-9, 12, 16), X = O2C-R (R = (CH2)n-2-CH3, n = 6-12, 14, 15, 16), and X = DOS (DOS = dodecyl sulfate, n = 6, 8, 9, 12, 16, 18), were studied. The nature of the counterion X strongly affects the appearance of the liquid-crystalline order: the chloro complexes are not mesomorphic, whereas the complexes with RCO2 or DOS anions exhibit a columnar hexagonal mesophase above ca. 150°C. A structural model for the mesophase of the Ru2(O2C-(CH2)n-2-CH 3)5 series is proposed. Three other types of Ru2(O2CR)4X complexes were obtained with a 3,4-dialkoxybenzoate as equatorial ligand (RCO2 = 3,4-(CH3(CH2)n-1O)2PhCO2) and with X=Cl (n = 12, 15, 16), X = RCO2 (n = 12, 15, 16) and X = DOS (n = 12, 15, 16).
