We report here the synthesis and characterization of some novel Zn(II)phthalocyanine (Pc)-corannulene conjugates and their complexation ability towards a pyridyl-functionalized C[Formula: see text] fullerene through metal-ligand supramolecular interactions. Steady-state and time-resolved photophysical studies carried out on these electron donor–acceptor (D–A) Zn(II)Pc-corannulene/C[Formula: see text] ensembles indicate the formation of photogenerated charge-separated species. Interestingly, a stabilization of the photoinduced charge-separated state is observed in the case of the D–A supramolecular complexes comprising the corannulene-substituted Zn(II)Pcs when compared to their non-corannulene functionalized Zn(II)Pc analogues. We rationalize this stabilizing effect of the charge-separated state exerted by the corannulene as a result of the increased [Formula: see text]-extension and augmented hydrophobicity of the Zn(II)Pc core by the covalently-linked polyaromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) fragment.

We describe the synthesis, microscopic and spectroscopic characterization of a novel donor-acceptor prototype, namely, a single wall carbon nanotube (SWNT) nanoconjugate bearing a covalently linked free base porphyrin ( H 2 P ). In the characterized SWNT- H 2 P nanoconjugate the electronic features of SWNT are largely retained, when compared to pristine SWNT. In fact, carefully controlled reaction conditions lead to a low degree of SWNT functionalization, as evidenced by the preservation of the SWNT van Hove singularities. As a consequence, the overall SWNT loading with H 2 P is so low that in the ground state, the H 2 P features are barely seen, which is different from the excited state, where features of H 2 P are clearly discernable. For example, fluorescence and transient absorption characteristics corroborate, unequivocally, the formation of the H 2 P singlet excited state, which is, however, impacted by the presence of SWNT.

Two dyads consisting of a mononuclear or a dinuclear ruthenium complex covalently linked to a fullerenopyrrolidine through a rigid androstane spacer, have been prepared through azomethine ylide cycloaddition to C60. Electrochemical and photophysical studies revealed that ground-state electronic interactions between the dinuclear ruthenium chromophore and the fullerenopyrrolidine moiety are small. The redox series observed for the dyads correspond to the superimposition of the reduction patterns of the fullerene core and of the Ru(II)-bipyridine moieties. The results of the electrochemical investigation allow us to rationalize the photophysical behaviour of the two species by identifying the thermodynamically allowed and forbidden routes for the deactivation of the Ru-based metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) excited state.

A glycyrrhizin decorated graphene hybrid materials (GL-G) was synthesized, which is a layer-to-layer sandwich construction. The results of characterization indicate that a photo induced electron transfer process or efficient energy transferring along the GL-G interface. Furthermore, the as-made hybrid material was used as a modifier of the glassy carbon electrode to construct a sensor (GL-G/GCE). Using p-nitrophenol as a model compound, the novel sensor demonstrated a highly enhanced electrochemical activity for it. The peak current of p-nitrophenol was significantly improved at the sensor.

The reaction between [TBA]2[Zn(dmit)2] and 3-chloro-2,4-pentanedione yielded single crystals of the title compound, (3E,3′E)-3,3′-[(2-sulfanylidene-1,3-dithiole-4,5-diyl)bis(sulfanediyl)]bis(4-hydroxypent-3-en-2-one), C13H14O4S5, after solvent evaporation. The title compound crystallizes in the triclinic space group P\overline{1} with two molecules related by an inversion center present in the unit cell. The central thione ring moiety contains a carbon–carbon double bond covalently linked to two sulfoxide substituents located outside of the plane of the ring. The S—C—C—S torsion angles are −176.18 (8) and −0.54 (18)°. Intramolecular hydrogen bonds occur within the two dione substituents (1.67–1.69 Å). Adjacent asymmetric units are linked by C—H...S (2.89–2.90 Å), S...S [3.569 (1) Å] and O...H [2.56–2.66 Å between non-stacked thione rings] short contacts.
