The electrochemical properties of a fullerene–ferrocene liquid crystal are reported. The electrochemical study was carried out under strictly aprotic conditions: a total of seven reduction peaks were detected in the negative potential region, and two oxidation peaks in the positive potential one. Comparison of the data with those obtained from suitable model compounds (i.e., analogous...

Two fullerene–peralkylated ferrocene derivatives were synthesized: (1) a liquid-crystalline dyad (compound 1) was obtained by introduction of nonamethyl ferrocene into a liquid-crystalline fullerene derivative and (2) a reference compound (compound 2) was synthesized by attachment of nonamethyl ferrocene to a fulleropyrrolidine. The liquid-crystalline dyad displayed an enantiotropic smectic A...
