In the present work, the ZORA spin–orbit Hamiltonian, in conjunction with the gauge including orbital (GIAO) method based on DFT theory has been used to calculate ¹⁹⁵Pt chemical shift of ¹⁹⁵PtClxBr6–x²⁻ complexes. Excellent agreement with experiments has been obtained for calculations bearing on optimized geometries and all electrons triple zeta +...

We report discovery of a new efficient and robust antenna composite for light harvesting. The organic dye hostasol red (HR) is strongly luminescent in aprotic solvents but only weakly luminescent in potassium zeolite L (ZL) at ambient conditions. We observed a dramatic increase of the luminescence quantum yield of HR–ZL composites if some or all exchangeable potassium cations of ZL are...

A dithienylethene derivative containing a cyclobutene-1,2-dione skeleton does not exhibit photochromic properties. However, when both ketone functions are protected with cyclic acetal groups, photochromic behavior is observed.

A combined experimental and modeling study of methylacridine (MeAcr⁺) dye-zeolite L composites unravels the microscopic origin of their functional properties. The anisotropic orientation of the cationic dye inside the ZL channel is unambiguously determined and understood. The most stable orientation of MeAcr⁺, which features both its long and short molecular axes nearly perpendicular to the...

Luminescent Os(II) and Ir(III) complexes containing a tripodal-type structure terminalized with three thiol derivatives are described. The tripod is introduced through derivatization, with a rigid spacer, of a phenanthroline ligand coordinated to the metal ion, and the entire structure possesses axial geometry. The geometry of the complexes combined with the three anchoring sites, the thiol...

The title compound, C₃₁H₁₈F₆S₂, is a molecular switch based on dithienylperfluorocyclopentene. The molecule possesses pseudo-C₂ symmetry and has the open form of the switch. There are a number of intramolecular C-H...F hydrogen bonds, but in the crystal structure there are no interactions between symmetry-related molecules.

The photochromic diarylethene derivative 1,2-bis(5-(4-ethynylphenyl)-2-methylthiophen-3-yl)perfluorocyclopentene (1) was submitted to photochemical, thermal stability and fatigue resistance studies in acetonitrile, also to evaluate its possible application as a new actinometer. This photochromic system covers a wide spectral absorption range, with intense bands in the UV and visible regions for...

Fulgimides monosubstituted with [M(bpy)₃]²⁺ (M = Ru, Os; bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine) chromophore units and with a single bpy group were synthesized and investigated as components of conceivable dinuclear photochromic switches of luminescence. The E-, Z- and closed-ring (C) photoisomer forms of the bpy-bound fulgimide were successfully separated by semi-preparative HPLC. The same...

The thoughful construction of molecular switches has led to a gamut of supramolecular systems that can be used in molecular electronics. These include molecules based on thienylethenes, spiropyrans, fulgides, dithienylphenanthrolines, and diazafluorenes. This article reviews the recent developments made in the synthesis and characterization of all these systems, thereby allowing a comparative...
