Abstract

Abstract: Invited for this month's cover are collaborators from the University of Aveiro, the NOVA University of Lisbon (Faculty of Science and Technology‐FCT) and the Complutense University of Madrid. The cover picture shows the crystal structure of a Pd II derivative belonging to a new family of metal complexes supported by meso‐tetraaryl‐substituted porphyrin ligands. The liquid crystal behaviour of a Pd II complex is shown at centre of the picture. Read the full text of the article at10.1002/cplu.201500557 . Abstract : "… we are interested in the development of highly emissive and nanostructured materials based on porphyrin derivatives, functionalized nanoparticles, and fluorescent liquid crystals for applications as sensors and optical devices …" Read more about the story behind the cover in the Cover Profile and about the research itself (DOI:10.1002/cplu.201500557 ).
