A simple route to the preparation of benzodipyrrolidone (BDP) based monomeric building blocks containing 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridines is reported from a common precursor 4′-(4-pinacolatoboronphenyl)-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine via Suzuki coupling reaction. Self-assembly polymerization with ruthenium (II) ions under mild conditions yielded a series of novel metallo-supramolecular polymers with weak donor-acceptor (D-A) structures based on benzodipyrrolidone. The structure of the bridge connected BDP with terpyridine have a significant impact on the wavelength and intensity of the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) absorption peak. The resulting metallo-polymers exhibited strong double absorption bands around 315 nm and 510 nm involved in π-π* transitions and ICT or metal to ligand charge transfer (MLCT) absorption bands. The forming of D-A structure and coordination with ruthenium (II) ions is favorable to narrow the energy gap and the energy gaps of the resulting metallo-supramolecular polymers are 2.01 and 1.62 eV, respectively.

Optimizing charge transfer (CT) processes at donor/acceptor interfaces is an important subject to improving photocurrent density. Geometries of functional polymers play important roles in design of new types of polymers, which were used as electron donor to improve effective separation of electron-hole pairs at donor/acceptor interfaces. In this article, a novel W-type of polymer, poly(1-[4-(9-(2-ethylhexyl)carbazole-3-yl)]phenylazo-2-phenylazoacenaphthylene), was synthesized by a Suzuki coupling reaction for improving interaction between polymers and electron acceptors to enhance intermolecular CT. Geometry of combination of the polymer and C60 shows that main-chain of the polymer could sufficiently touch C60 derivatives. The polymer exhibited a broadband light absorption at the wavelength range from 250 to 650 nm. Ultraviolet–visible spectra and cyclic voltammetry curve suggest that the highest occupied, lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy levels, and energy gap values are −5.09, −3.18 and 1.91 eV. Fluorescence quenching experiments shows that 99.9% of emission fluorescence of the polymer was quenched by added C60. Therefore, excited electrons at the polymer would be completely transferred to C60 molecules. This article suggests a new W-type functional polymer for improving intermolecular CT processes at donor/acceptor interfaces.

Single-stranded DNA–melamine hybrid molecular building blocks were synthesized using a phosphoramidation cross-coupling reaction with a zero linker approach. The self-assembly of the DNA–organic hybrid molecules was achieved by DNA hybridization. Following self-assembly, two distinct types of nanostructures in the form of linear chains and network arrays were observed. The morphology of the self-assembled nanostructures was found to depend on the number of DNA strands that were attached to a single melamine molecule.

Emission spectrum of Iridium complex bis [2-(9, 9-diethylfluoren-2-yl)-5-trifluoromethyl-pyridinto-C3, iridium (acetylacetonate) (fl-5CF3-py)2Ir (acac) in THF was 589 nm. Two weak UV absorption bands can be assigned to spin-allowed singlet metal-to-ligand charge transfer (1MLCT) and spin-forbidden 3MLCT transitions. The organic light-emitting devices A ITO/PEDOT: PSS/PBD: PVK: (fl-5CF3-py)2Ir (acac) (8 %) /LiF/Al and B ITO/PEDOT:PSS/PBD: PVK: (fl-5CF3-py)2Ir (acac) (8 %) /TPBi/LiF/Al were fabricated using iridium complex as emitter dopant with electro-luminescent spectra at 592 and 588 nm at the bias voltages of 9, 11 and 13V. Devices A and B exhibited luminance of 5265 (at 15 V) and 4098 cd/m2 with Commission International de LEclairage (CIE) coordinates of (0.5805, 0.4185) and (0.5815, 0.4176), respectively. Device B (with TPBi) emitted orange light more efficiently than Device A (without TPBi).

Organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), charged iridium(III) complexes, spiro ligand Abstract. We report the synthesis, characterization and photophysical properties of a cationic cyclometalated Ir(III) complexes of general formula [Ir(ppy)2(spbpy)]+Cl, [Ir(diFppy)2(spbpy)]+Cland [Ir(thiopy)2(spbpy)]+Clwhere ppy, spbpy, diFppy and thiopy are 2-phenylpyridine, 4,5-diaza-9,9′-spirobifluorene, 2-(2′,4′-difluorophenyl)-pyridine and 2-(thiophen-2′-yl)-pyridine, respectively. The complexes exhibit strong absorption bands in the UV region in solution spectra, due to spin-allowed ligand-centred (LC) and weaker absorption bands at longer wavelengths from metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT). The photoluminescence spectra of all the complexes were characterised by a combination of 3MLCT and3π→π*states. The emission color of a cationic cyclometalated Ir(III) complexes in solution have successfully tuned from green to orange (501-582 nm).

In 1974, the metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) excited state, [Ru(bpy)3]2+*, was shown to undergo electron transfer quenching by methylviologen dication (MV2+), inspiring a new approach to artificial photosynthesis based on molecules, molecular-level phenomena, and a “modular approach”. In the intervening years, application of synthesis, excited-state measurements, and theory to [Ru(bpy)3]2+* and its relatives has had an outsized impact on photochemistry and photophysics. They have provided a basis for exploring the energy gap law for nonradiative decay and the role of molecular vibrations and solvent and medium effects on excited-state properties. Much has been learned about light absorption, excited-state electronic and molecular structure, and excited-state dynamics on timescales from femtoseconds to milliseconds. Excited-state properties and reactivity have been exploited in the investigation of electron and energy transfer in solution, in molecular assemblies, and in derivatized polymers and oligoprolines. An integrated, hybrid approach to solar fuels, based on dye-sensitized photoelectrosynthesis cells (DSPECs), has emerged and is being actively investigated.

Wurtzite nanostructures have been recently described using molecular building blocks called wurtzoids. These wurtzoids are utilized in the present work to describe aluminum mononitride (AlN) nanostructures including its surface doping with group IV elements i.e. C Si, Ge and Sn. Calculations are performed for bare, and hydrogen surface passivated wurtzoids. Results show that hydrogen-passivated (HP) AlN-wurtzoids have energy gaps that are very near to the experimental bulk AlN. Longitudinal optical (LO) vibrational frequencies are also very near to bulk experimental value with blue and red frequency shifting for bare, and hydrogen surface passivated wurtzoids. Doped AlN-wurtzoid2c with group IV elements show a reduction of the energy gap. The gap generally decreases as the atomic number of the dopant increases. The electronic and vibrational properties can be interpreted using the charge transfer between atoms. Minimum atomic charge transfer is for carbon atom doping that leads to a maximum reduction of the energy gap of bare and entirely hydrogen surface passivated wurtzoids. The doped carbon atom charge transfer also induces the highest increase in LO vibrational mode.
