Résumé
Dinuclear ruthenium complexes containing the stable metal−metal bonded Ru<sub>2</sub>(CO)<sub>4</sub> sawhorse unit with two dendritic carboxylato bridges have been synthesized and characterized. All complexes Ru<sub>2</sub>(CO)<sub>4</sub>(O<sub>2</sub>CR)<sub>2</sub>L<sub>2</sub> (R = R<sup>1</sup>, R<sup>2</sup>, R<sup>3</sup>) containing cyanobiphenyl-based poly(arylester) dendrons of first (R<sup>1</sup>), second (R<sup>2</sup>), and third (R<sup>3</sup>) generation and triphenylphosphine, pyridine, or 4-picoline ligands L proved to be mesomorphic, giving rise to smectic A or smectic A and nematic phases. The supramolecular organization within the smectic A phase is governed by the nature and structure of the mesogenic units and dendritic core. Such materials are of interest for the design of catalytically active anisotropic fluids.
