A planarized 9-phenylanthracene: a simple electron-donating building block for fluorescent materials.

Photophysical characterization of the 9,10-disubstituted anthracene chromophore and its applications in triplettriplet annihilation photon upconversion

Molecules based on anthracene are commonly used in applications such as OLEDs and triplet–triplet annihilation upconversion. In future design of blue emitting materials it is useful to know which part of the molecule can be altered in order to obtain new physical properties without losing the inherent optical properties. We have studied the effect of substitution of 9,10-substituted anthracenes...

Control of Self-Assembly by Charge-Transfer Complexation between C60 Fullerene and Electron Donating Units of Block Copolymers

Self-assembly allows new opportunities to control the morphology and properties of fullerenebased materials. By using the electron-accepting underivatized C60 and electron-donating pyridine groups of a polystyrene-block-poly(4-vinylpyridine), PS-block-P4VP, we here show the first example that charge-transfer complexation between fullerenes and block copolymers can essentially modify the self-as...

Water-soluble cationic conjugated polymers: response to electron-rich bioanalytes.

We report the concise synthesis of a symmetrical monomer that provides a head-to-head pyridine building block for the preparation of cationic conjugated polymers. The obtained poly(pyridinium-phenylene) polymers display appealing properties such as high electron affinity, charge-transport upon n-doping, and optical response to electron-donating analytes. A simple assay for the optical detection...
