Graphical Abstract

A challenging strategy for the design of metal-containing polymeric systems with a controlled nanostructure is the introduction of polymerizable groups that are both compatible with the mesomorphic order and reactive in the presence of metals. 1,3-Diene groups have recently been reported to offer such compatibility and reactivity, leading to efficient polymerization (see picture).
