Abstract
An oligophenylenevinylene-benzocrown ether conjugate has been prepared and its binding selectivity for alkali metal ions evaluated by electrospray mass spectrometry. Whereas this benzocrown-ether derivative does not exhibit any liquid crystalline properties, the self-assembly by coordination to potassium or cesium leads to supramolecular sandwich complexes with mesomorphic properties.
