The heterofulvenoid cyclopentadithiophene-phosphaalkene is a versatilie building block for opto-electronic tuning with donor and acceptor moieties. Both the annulated thienyl rings and the phosphaalkene bond can be functionalised using a variety of chemical transfomations, e.g. forming C-C, C-E (E = Si, Br) bonds or oxidation and metal coordination, respectively. Solid-state structures, optical and electronic properties are probed theoretically and experimentally, illustrating the opto-electronic tailoring opportunities at this motif.

The structural isomers of a number of lithium heteroamidocuprates LiCuR(NR′2) have been studied in the solid state and in solution, with the steric and electronic properties of the amido group (NR′2) shown to significantly influence the solid-state structures and the position of the solution equilibrium.

Pyromellitic diimide forms orange-coloured cocrystals of 1 : 1 stoichiometry with dialkoxynaphthalene derivatives. The solid-state structures of two examples are presented. The cocrystal formed with 2,6-dimethoxynaphthalene presents vertical stacks of alternating π-rich and π-deficient subunits with the long axes of the respective components approximately parallel. Investigation of the packing in the cocrystal also reveals a stabilizing array of hydrogen bonds between the components of adjacent stacks. Cocrystallization with 1,5-[2-(2-hydroxyethoxy)ethoxy]naphthalene, a derivative bearing hydroxy terminated ethyleneoxy chains, gives rise to an altered structural arrangement. Alternating donor- acceptor stacks once again dominate the structure but adopt a geometry where the long axes of the constituents are essentially perpendicular. Hydrogen-bonding interactions result in the formation of continuous non-covalently linked columns of donor and acceptor subunits by linking the terminal hydroxy functions of the naphthalene component to the imide protons. The structural preferences revealed by these solid-state analyses indicate that these complexes are useful prototypes of more complex neutral supramolecular assemblies.


Quantum dot defines as a nanoparticle with particle size smaller than its exciton Bohr radius. Due to the remarkable quantum effects such as optical and electronic properties, they have attracted a great deal of attention by researchers and industries. Therefore, quantum dots have become a major topic in nano-technology. Here, we describe the most recent eco-friendly techniques that have been used to synthesize quantum dots, including biogenic methods, such as plant-mediated, microorganisms-mediated methods, wet chemical and solid-state methods.

Functionalization of 4,4-difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (BODIPY) chromophores at the 2,6-positions with iodo substituents and morpholino-substituted α-methyl groups affords molecules with strong absorbance in the visible spectrum. The effect of such substitution on the solid-state arrangements, absorption, fluorescence and electronic properties of these dye molecules is reported. The spectroscopic and spectroelectrochemical measurements display intense absorptions in the UV-visible spectrum with bathochromic shifts, in comparison to unfunctionalized BODIPY, and a positive shift in redox potentials due to functionalisation of the BODIPY core. Halogen bonds are observed in the solid-state structures of both halogenated BODIPY species, which in one case leads to the formation of an unusual halogen bonded framework.

We show that polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) chromophores that are linked between two five-membered rings can access planarized structures with reduced optical gaps and redox potentials. Two aceanthrylene chromophores were connected into dimer model systems with the chromophores either projected outward (2,2’-biaceanthrylene) or inward (1,1’-biaceanthrylene) and the optical and electronic properties were compared. Only the planar 2,2’-biaceanthrylene system showed significant reductions of the optical gaps (1 eV) and redox potentials in relation to the aceanthrylene monomer.<br>
