Abstract

The front cover displays novel ionic liquid crystalline (ILC) compounds containing a nitroxide radical unit in the organic cations, showing an enantiotropic smectic A (SmA) phase. One of the ILC compounds shows strong intermolecular magnetic interactions owing to the nanosegregation of strongly bonded ionic and non-ionic moieties. Its droplet can be magnetically manipulable. More information can be found in the Full Paper by Yoshiaki Uchida, Rui Tamura, and co-workers.
