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).
