A novel M2L2 molecular tube capable of binding fullerene C60 was synthesized from bispyridine ligands with embedded anthracene panels and Ag(I) hinges. Unlike previous cages capsules, this open-ended tubular host can accommodate a single molecule various derivatives large substituents. The guest then be released by using the ideal, noninvasive external stimulus, light.
Abstract The lack of structural information impeded the access efficient luminescence for exciplex type thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF). We report here pump-probe Step-Scan Fourier transform infrared spectra composed a carbazole-based electron donor (CN-Cz2) and 1,3,5-triazine-based acceptor (PO-T2T) codeposited as solid film that gives intermolecular charge transfer (CT), TADF, record-high cyan organic light emitting diodes (external quantum efficiency: 16%). transient...
Abstract Near‐infrared organic light‐emitting diodes (NIR OLEDs) enable many unique applications ranging from night‐vision displays and photodynamic therapies. However, the development of efficient NIR OLEDs with a low efficiency roll‐off is still challenging. Here, series new heteroleptic Pt(II) complexes ( 1 – 4 ) flanked by both pyridyl pyrimidinate functional azolate chelates are synthesized. The reduced ππ * energy gap chelate, strong intermolecular interaction high crystallinity in...
Abstract The design of square‐planar Pt(II) complexes with highly efficient solid‐state near infrared (NIR) luminescence for electroluminescence is attractive but challenging. This study presents the fine‐turning excited‐state properties and application a series isoquinolinyl pyrazolate that are modulated by steric demanding substituents. It reveals bulky substituents do not always disfavor metallophilic Pt···Pt interactions. Instead, π–π stacking among chelates, which fine‐tuned associated...
A switch in time: Gel–sol transitions of a urea-based [2]rotaxane gelator are controlled by the degree solvent exposure hydrogen-bond-donating urea station and orientation hydrogen-bond-accepting CO groups interlocked ethylene glycol based macrocycle (N blue, O red, phenyl green). Both acid/base anion-exchange control can be used to reversibly transition rotaxane 1-pentanol between solution gel states.
Various substituted dioxythiophenes bearing 3,4-propylenedioxythiophenes (ProDOT) and 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) moieties successfully undergo Pd-catalyzed direct C–H arylation to yield π-conjugated polymers. The effects of palladium catalysts, phosphine ligands or additives, functional groups on this facile polycondensation approach are investigated. Polymers from alkoxy-substituted ProDOT synthesized with reasonable molecular weight (Mn = 6100–9600) low PDI (1.3–1.9). Four EDOT...

The neat phase behavior of 28 phosphonium salts (nPmA), each with three equivalent long n-alkyl chains containing m carbon atoms and one shorter chain n or a benzyl group, have been examined. Eighteen form liquid-crystalline smectic A2 (SmA2) phase, where the lipophilic assemble in bilayers that sandwich an "ionic plane" consisting array anions positively charged phosphorus atoms. Several analogous ammonium are examined as well. These first structures reported for amphiphiles single atom...
Reported here is a cooperative effect that the sensing efficiency of active group on gold nanoparticles (GNPs) can be significantly influenced by another proximal functional group. We previously developed visual scheme for K+ 15-crown-5-CH2O(CH2)12SH functionalized GNPs in aqueous matrix. Upon adding K+, GNP solution changes from red to blue. Such transform triggered 2-to-1 sandwich complexation crown resulting shift surface plasmon absorption due aggregation. Herein, we discover introducing...
