Abstract
Hetero-bimetallic liquid crystalline materials, exhibiting a single Colhex mesophase, were obtained by simple chemical blending between two structurally-related Cu(II) and Zn(II) metallomesogens based on 1,10-phenanthroline and two chelating gallate ligands. Mesomorphous and optical properties were modified upon their relative respective proportions. This study highlights the numerous possibilities for the fabrication of new multifunctional polymetallic materials, with the possibility of tuning the properties and controlling supramolecular interactions between metal centres and corresponding synergistic effects.

Abstract
This review provides a comprehensive overview of recent advances in the supramolecular organisation and hierarchical self-assembly of organo-functionalised hybrid polyoxometalates (hereafter referred to as hybrid POMs), and their emerging role as multi-functional building blocks in the construction of new nanomaterials. Polyoxometalates have long been studied as a fascinating outgrowth of traditional metal-oxide chemistry, where the unusual position they occupy between individual metal oxoanions and solid-state bulk oxides imbues them with a range of attractive properties (e.g. solubility, high structural modularity and tuneable properties/reactivity). Specifically, the capacity for POMs to be covalently coupled to an effectively limitless range of organic moieties has opened exciting new avenues in their rational design, while the combination of distinct organic and inorganic components facilitates the formation of complex molecular architectures and the emergence of new, unique functionalities. Here, we present a detailed discussion of the design opportunities afforded by hybrid POMs, where fine control over their size, topology and their covalent and non-covalent interactions with a range of other species and/or substrates makes them ideal building blocks in the assembly of a broad range of supramolecular hybrid nanomaterials. We review both direct self-assembly approaches (encompassing both solution and solid-state approaches) and the non-covalent interactions of hybrid POMs with a range of suitable substrates (including cavitands, carbon nanotubes and biological systems), while giving key consideration to the underlying driving forces in each case. Ultimately, this review aims to demonstrate the enormous potential that the rational assembly of hybrid POM clusters shows for the development of next-generation nanomaterials with applications in areas as diverse as catalysis, energy-storage and molecular biology, while providing our perspective on where the next major developments in the field may emerge.

Abstract
The synthesis of the first mesogenic donor-acceptor polyoxometalate (POM)-based hybrid is herein described. The structural and electronic properties of the hybrid compound were evaluated through combination of small- and wide-angle X-ray scattering, optical microscopy, electrochemistry and photoluminescence. In the solid state, the compound behaves as a birefringent solid, displaying a lamellar organization in which double-layers of POMs and bis(thiophene)thienothiophene organic donors alternate regularly. Noticeably, the sub-unit organizations in the composite are similar to that observed for the individual POM and organic donor precursors. Photophysical studies show that in the hybrid, the fluorescence of the organic donor unit is considerably quenched both in solution and in the solid state, which is attributed to occurrence of intramolecular charge-separated state.

Abstract
Functionalization of 1,4-di(4-pyridinyl)benzene with poly(arylester) dendrimers bearing cyanobiphenyl end-groups gives a bidentate dendromesogenic ligand (L) that exhibits thermotropic liquid-crystalline properties. Combination of the diruthenium complex [Ru2(p-cymene)2(donq)][DDS]2 (M) with L, by coordination-driven self-assembly, affords the discrete and well-defined metallacycle M2L2. Like L, this supramolecular dendritic system displays mesomorphic properties above 50 °C. Both compounds L and M2L2 show smectic phases, characterized by a multilayered organization of the multiple components.

Abstract
Herein, a mono-lacunary Keggin-type polyoxometalate (POM), [SiW11O39]8-, grafted with an azobenzene group through Sn ion bridging was prepared, and the formed organic-inorganic hybrid cluster was characterized via elemental analysis, NMR, TGA, and IR techniques. A vesicular structure of the hybrid cluster assembly in aqueous media was observed in the TEM image, and it dissociated in the presence of α-/β-, γ-cyclodextrins (α-/β-, γ-CDs); this dissociation was driven by the host-guest interactions. The monodispersed inclusion complex further reassembled into smaller micelles under irradiation with 365 nm light, and this transformation was reversibly controlled by alternating the irradiation with 450 nm light. Moreover, in the case of the POM-Azo/β-CD system, reassembly from the monodispersed state to the vesicular state was achieved by the addition of a competitive guest molecule. Thus, the reversible host-guest interactions combining reversible photoisomerization of the azobenzene group provided multiple ways to modulate the assembly and disassembly of the POM hybrid as well as the changes between different assemblies. The present study inspires the potential use of these kind of hybrid POMs in enhanced catalytic reactions and recycling.

Abstract
Crown ethers and their derivatives are versatile building blocks for the design of supramolecular materials. They can be functionalized at will and are well known for their abilities to complex with alkali cations. Here, we show that emissive lanthanide free hybrid materials can be generated by using such building blocks. The organic tribenzo[18]crown-6 central core was functionalized via six-fold Suzuki cross-coupling as a key reaction with three o-terphenyl units which could be converted into their corresponding triphenylenes by the Scholl reaction, leading to novel liquid-crystalline columnar materials. Selected tribenzo[18]crown-6 o-terphenyls could interact with emissive ternary metal cluster compound salts to generate hybrid materials combining the properties of both moieties. Due to synergistic effects and despite the anisometry of the cluster compounds, individual properties such as liquid-crystalline phase stability of the organic part and emission abilities of its inorganic counter-part are enhanced in the hybrid compounds.

Abstract
The combination of rational design of building components and suitable utilization of driving force affords spontaneous molecular assemblies with well-defined nanostructure and morphology over multiple length scales. The serious challenges in constructing assemblies with structural advantages for the realization of functions programmed into the building components usually lie ahead since the process that occurs does not always follow the expected roadmap in the absence of external intervention. Thus, prefabricated intermediates that help in governing the target self-assemblies are developed into a type of unique building blocks. Metal oxide cluster polyanions are considered as a type of molecular nanoclusters with size scale and structural morphology similar to those of many known inorganic particles and clusters but possess distinctive characteristics. Following the understanding of these clusters in self-assembly and the rationalization of their most efficient design strategy and approach, the obtained fundamental principles can also be applied in common nanoparticle- and cluster-based systems. On the other hand, the deliberate synergy offered by organic countercations that support the self-assembly of these clusters greatly expands the opportunity for the functionalization of complex building units via control of multiple interactions. The ionic combination of the inorganic clusters with hydrophilicity and the cationic organic component with hydrophobicity leads to discrete properties of the complexes. Significantly, the core-shell structure with rigid-flexible features and amphiphilicity will pave the way for hierarchical self-assemblies of the obtained complexes, while the intrinsic characteristics of the metal oxide clusters can be modulated through external physicochemical stimuli. Within this context, over the past decade we have extensively explored the ionic combination of inorganic polyanionic clusters with cationic organic amphiphiles and devoted our efforts to establishing the general rules and structure-property relationships of the formed complexes for constructing self-assemblies at the interface, in solution, and in solid matrixes. Specific interest has been focused on the functional synergy deriving from the incompatible components in highly organized self-assemblies. In this Account, we describe the recent progress on the ionic complexation of polyoxometalate clusters with cationic amphiphiles and the construction of diverse self-assembled nanostructures. First, the fundamental structural characteristics and molecular geometries of the prepared complexes are analyzed. The construction principle and diversity of the self-assembly based on the complexes and the smart stimuli response are then discussed, subject to the adjustment of various non-covalent interactions occurring in the assemblies. Subsequently, we enumerate the functional applications of the ionic complexes assembling into organic, inorganic, and even biological matrixes. The inspiration from the construction of ionic complexation and self-assembly in this Account provides vivid profiles for the design of hybrid materials involving nanoclusters and/or nanoparticles with rich potentials in addition to polyoxometalate chemistry.

Abstract
This work describes the preparation and properties of self-patterning porous films consisting of giant vesicles formed by a 2.5-nm-diameter, polyoxometalate (POM) cluster {Mo72Fe30} macroanion, and a double-tailed cationic surfactant dimethyldistearylammonium bromide (DODMABr) in CHCl3-CH3OH mixture solvent (VCHCl3: VCH3OH=3:1). These inverse vesicles with the diameter in the range of 0.45~1.3μm in organic solution and the porous films consisting of the giant vesicles of the {Mo72Fe30}(DODMA)3 complexes were characterized by SEM, TEM, XPS and AFM observations. Self-patterning of these giant vesicles into porous films that are highly ordered honeycomb films on solid surfaces can survive drying as the frameworks are firstly studied in detail. Water contact angle measurements proved that the porous films of {Mo72Fe30}(DODMA)3 vesicles were endowed hydrophobic property from the hydrophilic surface. This porous film materials consisting of giant vesicles may be promising new options in many fields like photoelectrochemistry, sterilization, template, catalysis, in-situ synthesis.

Abstract
Inorganic phosphorescent octahedral metal nanoclusters fill the gap between metal complexes and nanoparticles. They are finite groups of metal atoms linked by metal-metal bonds, with an exact composition and structure at the nanometer scale. As their phosphorescence internal quantum efficiency can approach 100%, they represent a very attractive class of molecular building blocks to design hybrid nanomaterials dedicated to light energy conversion, optoelectronic, display, lighting, or theragnostic applications. They are obtained as AnM6X(i)8X(a)6 ternary salt powders (A = alkali cation, M = Mo, Re, W, X(i): halogen inner ligand, X(a) = halogen apical ligand) by high temperature solid state synthesis (750-1200 °C). However, their ceramic-like behavior has largely restricted their use as functional components in the past. Since these last two decades, several groups, including ours, started to tackle the challenge of integrating them in easy-to-process materials. Within this context, we have extensively explored the nanocluster ternary salt specificities to develop a new class of self-organized hybrid organic-inorganic nanomaterials known as clustomesogens. These materials, combine the specific properties of nanoclusters (magnetic, electronic, luminescence) with the anisotropy-related properties of liquid crystals (LCs). This Account covers the research and development of clustomesogens starting from the design concepts and synthesis to their introduction in functional devices. We developed three strategies to build such hybrid super- or supramolecules. In the covalent approach, we capitalized on the apical ligand-metal bond iono-covalent character to graft tailor-made organic LC promoters on the {M6X(i)8}(n+) nanocluster cores. The supramolecular approach relies on the host-guest complexation of the ternary cluster salt alkali cations with functional crown ether macrocycles. We showed that the hybrid LC behavior depends on the macrocycles structural features. Finally, a third strategy, known as the ionic-assembling strategy, exploits the anionic character of the [M6L14](n-) nanocluster units whose charge is counterbalanced by tailor-made organic cations. We first focused on rationalizing the structural-LC behavior relationships of these noncovalent nanostructured materials by using NMR, SAXS, DSC, and POM technics. Depending on the hybrid organic-inorganic volumic fraction, thermotropic layered or nematic phases were observed. In this last case, the nematic phase being the most fluid of all LC phases, we further investigated this class of clustomesogen by introducing them in electro-controlled devices to tune either their photoluminescence or observe polarized emission. We hope this Account will provide useful tools for the development of new materials integrating such bright but still underused inorganic phosphors.

Abstract
This Review covers the recent developments (2005-2015) in the design, synthesis, characterization, and application of thermotropic ionic liquid crystals. It was designed to give a comprehensive overview of the "state-of-the-art" in the field. The discussion is focused on low molar mass and dendrimeric thermotropic ionic mesogens, as well as selected metal-containing compounds (metallomesogens), but some references to polymeric and/or lyotropic ionic liquid crystals and particularly to ionic liquids will also be provided. Although zwitterionic and mesoionic mesogens are also treated to some extent, emphasis will be directed toward liquid-crystalline materials consisting of organic cations and organic/inorganic anions that are not covalently bound but interact via electrostatic and other noncovalent interactions.
