Biochemical systems make extensive use of chemically fueled processes (e.g., using ATP), but analogous abiotic systems remain rare. A key challenge is the identification of transformations that can be adapted to a range of applications and make use of readily available chemical fuels. In this context, the generation of transient covalent bonds is a fundamental tool for nonequilibrium systems chemistry. Here, we show that carbodiimides constitute a simple class of chemical fuels for dissipative assembly, taking advantage of their known reactivity to produce (hydrolytically unstable) anhydrides from carboxylic acids in water. Both aliphatic and aromatic anhydrides are formed on convenient time scales using the common, commercially available peptide coupling agent 1-ethyl-3-(3- (dimethylamino)propyl)carbodiimide (EDC). An important feature of this reaction is that no part of the carbodiimide is incorporated into the transient species; that is, the fuel is decoupled from the structure--and thus function--of the assembled state. We show that intramolecular anhydride formation of oligo(ethylene glycol) diacids gives macrocycles analogous to crown ethers, representing minimal examples of out-of-equilibrium supramolecular hosts. The kinetics and yields of macrocycle formation respond to cation guests, with the presence of matched cations decreasing their overall production. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Many foldamers, oligomers that adopt well-defined secondary structures, are now known, including many exhibiting functional behavior. However, examples of foldamer subunits within larger architectures remain rare, despite the importance of higher-order structure in biomacromolecules. Here, we investigate the dynamic covalent assembly of short o-phenylenes, a simple class of aromatic foldamers, into twisted macrocycles. o-Phenylene tetramers have been combined with rod-shaped p-phenylene-, tolane-, and diphenylbutadiyene-based linkers using imine formation. Macrocyclization proceeds efficiently, inducing folding of the o-phenylenes. The resulting [3 + 3] macrocycles (three o-phenylenes and three linkers) are shape-persistent, triangular structures with twisted cores and internal diameters up to approximately 2 nm. The homochiral D3-symmetric and heterochiral C2-symmetric conformers can be distinguished by NMR spectroscopy. Analysis of the conformational distribution for the p-phenylene-linked macrocycle suggests that the o-phenylene units are largely decoupled, with the less-symmetrical configuration therefore entropically favored. Conformational dynamics were assessed by variable-temperature NMR spectroscopy. Confinement within the macrocyclic architecture slows the inversion of the o-phenylene moieties. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A series of shape-persistent macrocycles featuring both m-phenylene and 2,5-thiophene linkers has been synthesized, including an example where they bridge electron-rich (veratrole) and electron-poor (phthalimide) units. Charge transfer in this “push–pull macrocycle” has been investigated by UV–vis and fluorescence spectroscopies and DFT calculations. The effect of pairing structurally distinct conjugated bridges is discussed in the context of acyclic and symmetrical macrocyclic analogs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The excited-state properties of unsubstituted ortho-phenylene oligomers have been studied using TD-DFT. Calculations of vertical transitions at the helical ground-state geometries are in good qualitative agreement with the experimental UV--vis spectra. In the excited state, the spring-like compounds compress; for the longer oligomers, this compression is localized at one end of the oligomer. This behavior explains the unusual experimentally observed hypsochromic shirts in fluorescence spectra with increasing oligomer length. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The o-phenylenes represent a fundamental class of conjugated polymers that, unlike the isomeric p-phenylenes, should exhibit rich conformational behavior. Recently, we reported the synthesis and characterization of a series of o-phenylene oligomers featuring unusual electronic properties, including surprisingly long-range delocalization as measured by UV-vis spectroscopy and hypsochromic shifts in fluorescence maxima with increasing length. To rationalize these properties, we hypothesized that the oligomers predominantly assume a stacked helical conformation in solution. This assertion, however, was supported by only indirect evidence. Here we present a thorough investigation of the conformational behavior of this series of o-phenylenes by dynamic NMR spectroscopy and computational chemistry. EXSY experiments, in combination with other two-dimensional NMR techniques, provided full 1H chemical shift assignments for at least the two most prevalent conformers for each member of the series (hexamer to dodecamer). GIAO density functional theory calculations were then used to relate the NMR data to specific molecular geometries. We have found that the o-phenylenes do indeed assume stacked helical conformations with disorder occurring at the ends. Thus, the o-phenylene motif appears to have great potential as a means to organize arenes into predictable three-dimensional arrangements. Our results also illustrate the power of 1H NMR GIAO predictions in the solution-phase conformational analysis of oligomers, particularly those with a high density of aromatic subunits.

The addition of the achiral biphenyl dopant 2,2′,6,6′-tetramethyl-4,4′-bis(4- n -nonyloxybenzoyloxy)biphenyl ( 3 ) or its dithionoester or dithioester analogue ( 4 , 5 ) to a 4 mol % mixture of the atropisomeric biphenyl dopant ( R )-2,2′,6,6′-tetramethyl-3,3′-dinitro-4,4′-bis(4- n -nonyloxybenzoyloxy)biphenyl, ( R )- 1 , in the phenylpyrimidine SmC host PhP1 produces a significant amplification of the spontaneous polarization induced by ( R )- 1 . This amplification may be due to a chiral perturbation by ( R )- 1 which causes a shift in the equilibrium between enantiomeric conformations of the achiral dopant. The degree of polarization amplification afforded by the achiral dopant, as expressed by the polarization amplification factor PAF , varies with the nature of the linking group. This may be ascribed to different rotational distributions of the core transverse dipole moments relative to the polar axis of the SmC* phase and/or to differences in lateral bulk of the polar linking groups. The latter may affect the degree of chiral molecular recognition achieved by 3 - 5 in the binding site of the SmC* phase. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The atropisomeric dopant 2,2',6,6'-tetramethyl-3,3'-dinitro-4,4'-bis[(4-nonyloxybenzoyl)oxy]biphen yl (1) induces a ferroelectric SmC[sup *] phase when doped into the SmC liquid crystal hosts 2-(4butyloxyphenyl)-5-octyloxypyrimidine (PhP1) and (±)-4-[(4-methylhexyl)oxy]phenyl 4-decyloxybenzoate (PhB). The propensity of dopant I to induce a spontaneous polarization (polarization power) is much higher in PhP1 than in PhB (1555 nC/cm² vs <35 nC/cm²), which is attributed to a greater propensity of I to undergo chirality transfer via core-core interactions with PhP1. In previous work, we postulated that a chiral perturbation exerted by 1 in PhP1 amplifies the polarization power of the dopant by causing a chiral distortion of the mean field potential (binding site) constraining the dopant in the SmC host, as described by the Chirality Transfer Feedback (CTF) model. To test the validity of the CTF model, and to provide a more direct assessment of the chiral perturbation exerted by dopant 1 on surrounding host molecules, we measured the effect of 1 on the polarization power of other chiral dopants acting as probes. In one series of experiments, (S,S)-5-(2,3-difluorooctyl)-2-(4-octylphenyl)pyridine (MDW950) and (S)-4-(1-methylheptyloxy)phenyl 4-decyloxybenzoate (4), which mimic the structures of PhP1 and PhB, were used as probes. In another series of experiments, the atropisomeric dopant 2,2',3,3',6,6'-hexamethyl-4,4'-bis[(4-nonyloxybenzoyl)oxy]biphenyl (2) was used as probe in PhP1. The results of the probe experiments suggest that dopant I exerts a much stronger chiral perturbation in PhP1 than in PhB. More significantly, the results of experiments using 2 as probe show that the chiral perturbation exerted by I can amplify the polarization power of another atropisomeric dopant, thus providing the first experimental evidence of the CTF effect.

Scrambling experiments suggest that the self-assembly of 2D ladders viaimine metathesis is kinetically trapped at four or more rungs. Consequently, ladders containing five or more rungs cannot be synthesized in high yield under the conditions used, as misaligned out-of-register byproducts cannot self-correct. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Biochemical systems make use of out‐of‐equilibrium polymers generated under kinetic control. Inspired by these systems, many abiotic supramolecular polymers driven by chemical fuel reactions have been reported. Conversely, polymers based on transient covalent bonds have received little attention, even though they have the potential to complement supramolecular systems by generating transient structures based on stronger bonds and by offering a straightforward tuning of reaction kinetics. In this study, we show that simple aqueous dicarboxylic acids give poly(anhydrides) when treated with the carbodiimide EDC. Transient covalent polymers with molecular weights exceeding 15,000 are generated which then decompose over the course of hours to weeks. Disassembly kinetics can be controlled using simple substituent effects in the monomer design. The impact of solvent polarity, carbodiimide concentration, temperature, pyridine concentration, and monomer concentration on polymer properties and lifetimes has been investigated. The results reveal substantial control over polymer assembly and disassembly kinetics, highlighting the potential for fine‐tuned kinetic control in nonequilibrium polymerization systems.

POLYMER networks , *CROSSLINKED polymers , *ACRYLIC acid , *CARBODIIMIDES , *POLYMERS - Abstract
Recent work has demonstrated that temporary crosslinks in polymer networks generated by chemical "fuels" afford materials with large, transient changes in their mechanical properties. This can be accomplished in carboxylic‐acid‐functionalized polymer hydrogels using carbodiimides, which generate anhydride crosslinks with lifetimes on the order of minutes to hours. Here, the impact of the polymer network architecture on the mechanical properties of transiently crosslinked materials was explored. Single networks (SNs) were compared to interpenetrated networks (IPNs). Notably, semi‐IPN precursors that give IPNs on treatment with carbodiimide give much higher fracture energies (i.e., resistance to fracture) and superior resistance to compressive strain compared to other network architectures. A precursor semi‐IPN material featuring acrylic acid in only the free polymer chains yields, on treatment with carbodiimide, an IPN with a fracture energy of 2400 J/m2, a fourfold increase compared to an analogous semi‐IPN precursor that yields a SN. This resistance to fracture enables the formation of macroscopic complex cut patterns, even at high strain, underscoring the pivotal role of polymer architecture in mechanical performance.

Biochemical systems accomplish many critical functions with by operating out‐of‐equilibrium using the energy of chemical fuels. The formation of a transient covalent bond is a simple but very effective tool in designing analogous reaction networks. This Minireview focuses on the fuel chemistries that have been used to generate transient bonds in recent demonstrations of abiotic nonequilibrium systems (i.e., systems that do not make use of biological components). Fuel reactions are divided into two fundamental classifications depending on whether the fuel contributes structural elements to the activated state, a distinction that dictates how they can be used. Reported systems are further categorized by overall fuel reaction (e.g., hydrolysis of alkylating agents, carbodiimide hydration) and illustrate how similar chemistry can be used to effect a wide range of nonequilibrium behavior, ranging from self‐assembly to the operation of molecular machines.

Dissipative assembly has great potential for the creation of new adaptive chemical systems. However, while molecular assembly at equilibrium is routinely used to prepare complex architectures from polyfunctional monomers, species formed out of equilibrium have, to this point, been structurally very simple. In most examples the fuel simply effects the formation of a single short‐lived covalent bond. Herein, we show that chemical fuels can assemble bifunctional components into macrocycles containing multiple transient bonds. Specifically, dicarboxylic acids give aqueous dianhydride macrocycles on treatment with a carbodiimide. The macrocycles are assembled efficiently as a consequence of both fuel‐dependent and fuel‐independent mechanisms; they undergo slower decomposition, building up as the fuel recycles the components, and are a favored product of the dynamic exchange of the anhydride bonds. These results create new possibilities for generating structurally sophisticated out‐of‐equilibrium species. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

ortho‐Phenylenes are one of the simplest classes of aromatic foldamers, adopting helical geometries because of aromatic stacking interactions. The folding and misfolding of ortho‐phenylenes are slow on the NMR timescale at or below room temperature, allowing detection of folding states using 1H NMR spectroscopy. Herein, an ortho‐phenylene hexamer is coupled with a RAFT chain transfer agent (CTA) on each repeat unit. A variety of acrylic monomers are polymerized onto the CTA‐functionalized ortho‐phenylene using PET‐RAFT to yield functionalized star polymers with ortho‐phenylene cores. The steric bulk of the acrylate monomer units as well as the chain length of each arm of the star polymer is varied. 1H NMR spectroscopy shows that the folding of the ortho‐phenylenes do not vary, providing a robust helical core for star polymer systems.

The use of "fuel" compounds to drive chemical systems out of equilibrium is currently of interest because of the potential for temporally controlled, responsive behavior. We have recently shown that transiently formed crown ethers exhibit counterintuitive templation effects when generated in the presence of alkali metal cations: "matched" cations, such as K+ with an 18‐crown‐6 analogue, suppress the formation of the macrocycles (negative templation). In this work, we describe two macrocyclic diacids that, on treatment with carbodiimides, give transient macrobicyclic cages analogous to polyether cages. Negative templation effects are observed for the smaller cage when generated in the presence of K+ and Na+, but there is a weak, but reproducible, positive templation effect in the presence of Li+. The larger cage behaves similarly in the presence of Li+, K+, Rb+, and Cs+, but differently with Na+, which appears to bind to both the cage and the initial macrocycle. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The structures comprise a central stack of arenes surrounded by a triple helix of interconnected arms. The racemization rate is strongly dependent on the number of tiers, suggesting cooperative conformational coupling in these multi-tiered structures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Although stereochemistry is an important topic in second-year undergraduate organic chemistry, there are limited options for laboratory activities that allow direct visualization of macroscopic chiral phenomena. A novel, guided-inquiry experiment was developed that allows students to explore chirality in the context of cholesteric liquid crystals. As part of the experiment, which requires no specialized equipment, students visually distinguish two enantiomers. A chiral imine is synthesized in one step from an assigned (but unknown to students) enantiomer of 1-phenylethylamine and then dissolved in a nematic liquid crystal host, inducing a helical structure. The resulting cholesteric liquid crystalline material selectively reflects circularly polarized light with a handedness that depends on the absolute configuration of the starting amine, easily detected using circularly polarizing filters from disposable 3D glasses. Working in teams, students examine the behavior of both dopant enantiomers and the racemic mixture. Analysis of our students' responses to post-lab questions indicates comprehension of most of the ideas introduced in lab. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Polymer networks crosslinked with spring-like ortho-phenylene (oP) foldamers were developed. NMR analysis indicated the oP crosslinkers were well-folded. Polymer networks with oP-based crosslinkers showed enhanced energy dissipation and elasticity compared to divinylbenzene crosslinked networks. The energy dissipation was attributed to the strain-induced reversible unfolding of the oP units. Energy dissipation increased with the number of helical turns in the foldamer. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A new shape-persistent macrocycle comprising two 2,3-triphenylene moieties bridged by m-phenylene ethynylenes has been synthesized. UV-vis and fluorescence spectroscopies indicate limited interaction between the two triphenylene units. The compound, which has a pronounced oblong shape (the core measures approximately 2.2 x 1.0 nm), aggregates in CDCl3 and toluene-d8 to give stacked dimers, as indicated by the ¹H NMR signals corresponding to protons on or near the core, which shift upfield with increasing concentration. These changes in NMR shielding were modeled using DFT calculations on candidate dimer geometries. The best match to the experimental data was obtained for a dimer consisting of arene-arene stacking by 3.6 Å (on average) with a displacement along the molecular long axis of 3.5-4.0 Å. This displacement is larger than can be explained by the electronic effects of aromatic stacking interactions. Instead, the minimization of steric interactions between the side chains appears to control the dimer geometry, with the alkoxy groups of one molecule sliding into registry with the gaps along the periphery of the other. Such lateral displacement (as opposed to rotation) is a direct consequence of the extended oval shape of the compound. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

While many foldamer systems reliably fold into well‐defined secondary structures, higher order structure remains a challenge. A simple strategy for the organization of folded subunits in space is to link them together within a macrocycle. Previous work has shown that o‐phenylenes can be co‐assembled with rod‐shaped linkers into twisted macrocycles, showing an interesting synergy between folding and thermodynamically controlled macrocyclization. In these systems the foldamer units were largely decoupled from each other both conformationally and electronically. Here, we show that hydrocarbon macrocycles, with very short ethenylene linkers, can be assembled from o‐phenylenes using olefin metathesis. Characterization by NMR spectroscopy, X‐ray crystallography, and ab initio calculations shows that the products are approximately triangular trimer macrocycles with helical o‐phenylene corners in a heterochiral configuration. Their photophysics are dominated by the 4,4'‐diphenylstilbene moieties, the longest conjugated segments, with further conjugation broken by the twisting of the o‐phenylenes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Transiently crosslinked dynamic polymer networks are developed, using carbodiimide hydration to link carboxylic acids as anhydrides. From aqueous polymer solutions, non-equilibrium hydrogels are transiently formed, which dissolve upon anhydride hydrolysis. The materials can be refueled using a subsequent injection of carbodiimide. The gels exhibit higher storage moduli compared to transient supramolecular gels as a result of their covalent crosslinks. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Despite longstanding interest in liquid crystalline compounds with simple rod- or disc- like shapes (calamitics or discotics), very few examples of the analogous board-shaped, or "sanidic", liquid crystals exist. A new series of alkyl-substituted dibenzo[fg,op]naphthacenes have been prepared by planarization of o-phenylene precursors through dehydrohalogenation. Their photophysical properties have been studied in dichloromethane. Liquid crystal phase behavior was characterized by polarized optical microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and X-ray diffraction. All of the compounds exhibit monotropic liquid crystal phases on cooling from the isotropic phase. The compounds with shorter alkyl (pentyl and heptyl) chains exhibit the uniaxial smectic-A phase analogous to that of simple calamitic mesogens. The compounds with longer alkyl (nonyl, undecyl, and tridecyl) chains exhibit a new smectic liquid crystal phase featuring short-range positional order with an apparent rectangular lattice in the smectic layers, that is, an orthogonal biaxial hexatic-B. The molecular arrangement in this phase likely corresponds to a distorted herringbone packing of the board-shaped structures. Further, the compound with nonyl chains exhibits an underlying smectic-B phase. DFT calculations show that the cores of the mesogens are twisted into C2- symmetric saddle-shaped geometries because of steric interactions along their rims. The liquid crystal phases and their structures are discussed in the context of the compounds' board-like shapes and intercore interactions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In general, ortho-phenylene hexamers are not good substrates for oxidative planarization because of competing backbone rearrangements. However, by first planarizing the ends, a target tetrabenzanthanthrene has been obtained by oxidation in good yield. DFT calculations suggest that the larger polycyclic aromatic subunits of the preplanarized substrate increase the rate of planarization relative to that of rearrangement. By implication, it may be possible to prepare graphene structures that cannot be made directly from simple polyphenylenes by instead designing precursors with larger polycyclic aromatic moieties. The photophysical properties of the tetrabenzanthanthrene core indicate that it may have promise as a functional chromophore. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The ortho-phenylenes are a simple class of foldamers, with the formation of helices driven by offset aromatic stacking interactions parallel to the helical axis. For the majority of reported o-phenylene oligomers, the perfectly folded conformer comprises perhaps 50-75% of the total population. Given the hundreds or thousands of possible conformers for even short oligomers, this distribution represents a substantial bias toward the folded state. However, "next-generation" o-phenylenes with better folding properties are needed if these structures are to be exploited as functional units within more complex architectures. Here, we report several new series of o-phenylene oligomers, varying both the nature and orientation of the substituents on every repeat unit. The conformational behavior was probed using a combination of NMR spectroscopy, DFT calculations, and X-ray crystallography. We find that increasing the electron-withdrawing character of the substituents gives oligomers with substantially improved folding properties. With moderately electron-withdrawing groups (acetoxy), we observe >90% of the perfectly folded conformer, and stronger electron withdrawing groups (triflate, cyano) give oligomers for which misfolded states are undetectable by NMR. The folding of these oligomers is only weakly solvent-dependent. General guidelines for the assessment of o-phenylene folding by NMR and UV--vis spectroscopy are also discussed.

An understanding of in 2-D linearly conjugated and cross-conjugated compounds is necessary for the rational design of molecular electronics, improved devices, semi-conducting polymers, and materials with nonlinear optical properties. In this work, the femtosecond transient absorption spectra and kinetics of several donor-bridge-acceptor compounds containing cross-conjugated or linearly conjugated bridging groups were obtained. The veratrole group was used as the donor, and the phthalimide group was used as an acceptor. 2-D conjugation was achieved by involving two bridging groups arranged cyclically between the donor and acceptor. The donor and acceptor were bridged by m-phenylene in the cross-conjugated compounds or 2,5-thiophene in the linearly conjugated compounds. We found slower charge separation times and slower charge times in the compounds containing cyclic cross-conjugated bridging groups than in those containing the cyclic linearly conjugated groups in polar solvent. Charge separation rates that were found to be dependent on solvent were observed in the donor-bridge-acceptor compounds. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The ortho-phenylenes are a simple class of helical oligomers and representative of the broader class of sterically congested polyphenylenes. Recent work has shown that o-phenylenes fold into well-defined helical conformations (in solution and, typically, in the solid state); however, the specific causes of this folding behavior have not been determined. Here, we report the effect of substituents on the conformational distributions of a series of o-phenylene hexamers. These experiments are complemented by dispersion-corrected DFT calculations on model oligomers (B97-D/TZV(2d,2p)). The results are consistent with a deterministic role for offset arene–arene stacking interactions on the folding behavior. On the basis of the experimental and computational results, we propose a model for o-phenylene folding with two simple rules. (1) Conformers are forbidden if they include a particular sequence of biaryl torsional states that causes excessive steric strain. These "ABA" states correspond to consecutive dihedral angles of -55°/+130°/-55° (or +55°/-130°/+55). (2) The stability of the remaining conformers is determined by offset arene–arene stacking interactions that are easily estimated as an additive function of the number of well-folded torsional states (±55°) along the backbone. For the parent, unsubstituted poly(o-phenylene), each interaction contributes roughly 0.5 kcal/mol to the helix stability (in chloroform), although their strength is sensitive to substituent effects. The behavior of theo-phenylenes as a class is discussed in the context of this model. They are analogous to α-helices, with axial aromatic stacking interactions in place of hydrogen bonding. The model predicts that the overall folding propensity should be quite sensitive to relatively small changes in the strength of the arene–arene stacking. In a broader sense, these results demonstrate that polyphenylenes may exhibit folding behavior that is amenable to simple models, and validate the use of diffusion-corrected DFT methods in predicting their three-dimensional structures.

- Abstract
New opp-dibenzoporphyrins were prepared in a concise method that was based on a Pd0-catalyzed cascade reaction. These porphyrins, which contained carboxylic-acid linker groups on benzene rings that were fused to the porphyrin at their β,β′-positions, were examined as sensitizers for dye-sensitized solar cells for the first time. Whereas all of the porphyrins showed solar-energy-to-electricity conversion, an opp-dibenzoporphyrin with conjugated carboxylic-acid linkers displayed the highest conversion efficiency and an exceptionally high Jsc value. Cyclic voltammetry of these porphyrins suggested that the fusion of two aromatic benzene rings onto the periphery of the porphyrin lowered the HOMO-LUMO energy gap; the incorporation of a conjugated carboxylic-acid linker group decreased the HOMO-LUMO gap even further. These CV data are consistent with DFT calculations for these porphyrins and agree well with the UV/Vis absorption- and fluorescence spectra of these porphyrins. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Two-dimensional π-systems are of current interest in the design of functional organic molecules, exhibiting unique behavior for applications in organic electronics, single- molecule devices, and sensing. Here we describe the synthesis and characterization of "push--pull macrocycles": electron-rich and electron-poor moieties linked by a pair of (matched) conjugated bridges. We have developed a two-component macrocyclization strategy that allows these structures to be synthesized with efficiencies comparable to acyclic donor-- bridge--acceptor systems. Compounds with both cross-conjugated (m-phenylene) and linearly conjugated (2,5-thiophene) bridges have been prepared. As expected, the compounds undergo excitation to locally excited states followed by fluorescence from charge-transfer states. The m-phenylene-based systems exhibit slower charge-recombination rates presumably due to reduced electronic coupling through the cross-conjugated bridges. Interestingly, pairing the linearly conjugated 2,5-thiophene bridges also slows charge recombination. DFT calculatioas of frontier molecular orbitals show that the direct HOMO--LUMO transition is polarized orthogonal to the axis of charge transfer for these symmetrical macrocyclic architectures, reducing the electronic coupling. We believe the push--pull macrocycle design may be useful in engineering functional frontier molecular orbital symmetries. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

ortho-Phenylenes represent a fundamental but relatively unexplored class of conjugated molecular architecture. We have developed a robust synthetic approach to monodisperse o-phenylene oligomers which we have demonstrated by synthesizing a homologous series up to the dodecamer. The o-phenylenes exhibit complex conformational behavior but are biased toward a specific 2-fold-symmetric conformation which we believe corresponds to a stacked helix. Surprisingly, the series exhibits long-range delocalization, as measured by bathochromic shifts in UV/vis spectra. Although the overall magnitude of the shifts is modest (but comparable to some other classes of conjugated materials), the effective conjugation length of the series is approximately eight repeat units. The oligomers also exhibit an unusual hypsochromic shift in their fluorescence spectra with increasing length. The origin of these trends is discussed in the context of conformational analysis and OFT calculations of the frontier molecular orbitals for the series. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
