Structural Correspondence of Solution, Liquid Crystal, and Crystalline Phases of the Chromonic Mesogen Sunset Yellow

The azo dye, sunset yellow, is a prototypical, chromonic liquid crystal in which assembly in aqueous solution at high volume fraction leads to lyotropic mesophases with a “package of properties distinct in almost every aspect” (Lydon, J. Curr. Opin. Colloid Interface Sci. 2004, 8, 480). In particula...
