Two aqueous lyotropic chromonic liquid crystals made from nickel(II) or copper(II) phthalocyananine tetrasulfonic acid tetrasodium salt are prepared with characterisation through optical polarising microscopy, X-ray diffraction and conductivity. These consist of ordered molecular aggregates of ~ 10 molecules, held together by π–π stacking. Electrochemistry within these dynamic, optically anisotropic columnar systems reveals that diffusion (physical transport or charge carrier hopping) can occur within two-dimensions.
► First report on anisotropic diffusion within redox-active lyotropic chromonic liquid crystals.
► First report on electrochemistry within ordered, self-assembling liquid metal–organic frameworks.
► Evidence for two-dimensional charge transfer within columnar stacks.
