Non-linear optical effects (NLO) such as multi-photon absorption, second harmonic generation (SHG) etc. have a wide range of applications. Nevertheless, the performance of many NLO-active organic dyes is limited by their thermal stability and photobleaching. These problems can be overcome by integrating the dyes into coordination polymers or metal-organic frameworks. Here, we present a structural and photophysical study of dipropyl-9-(4-nitrophenyl)-carbazole-3,6-dicarboxylate, a new “push-pull” organic dye molecule designed as a chromophore linker for NLO-active coordination polymers. Structure determination of a single-crystal showed that it crystallizes in a monoclinic crystal system P 21/c. The solvated chromophore exhibits two aromatic absorption bands at 250 nm and 275 nm as well as broad long wavelength band at 350 nm, which we assign to an intramolecular charge transfer state. Photoluminescence measurements in solvents of different polarities revealed two main effects: In nonpolar solvents, the spectrum shows an emission band at 360 nm, whereas in solvents with a higher polarity, the emission maximum broadens and redshifts. Solid-state emission measurement of sample powder exhibits an emission band at 520 nm which is redshifted compared to the measurements in solution, due to excimer formation in the solid-state. The optical as well as solvation-related properties of the investigated pigment render it to be a versatile ligand in coordination polymers.

Although gas adsorption properties of extended three-dimensional metal-organic materials have been widely studied, they remain relatively unexplored in porous molecular systems. This is particularly the case for porous coordination cages for which surface areas are typically not reported. Herein, we report the synthesis, characterization, activation, and gas adsorption properties of a family of carbazole-based cages. The chromium analog displays a coordination cage record BET (Brunauer-Emmett-Teller) surface area of 1235 m2/g. With precise synthesis and activation procedures, two previously reported cages similarly display high surface areas. The materials exhibit high methane adsorption capacities at 65 bar with the chromium(II) cage displaying CH4 capacities of 194 cm3/g and 148 cm3/cm3. This high uptake is a result of optimal pore design, which was confirmed via powder neutron diffraction experiments.

A series of bisalkamine esters, bis-basic ethers, and bis-basic ketones of carbazole, N-ethylcarbazole, dibenzofuran, and dibenzothiophene was synthesized and evaluated for antiviral activity. The series also induced two bis-basic alkanes of N-ethylcarbazole and one bis-basic carboxamide of dibenzofuran. Structure-activity relationships indicated that within the carbazole and N-ethylcarbazole series the bisalkamine esters gave the most active derivatives while the bis-basic ketone derivatives of dibenzofuran and dibenzothiophene afforded the more potent compounds within the respective series. The [6,5,6] heterocyclic nuclei were compared with [6,5,6] aromatic nuclei (fluorene and fluoren-9-one) including tilorone with respect to antiviral activity against encephalomyocarditis (EMC) virus. Maximum activity was associated with the bis-basic ketone side chain and fluoren-9-one nucleus.
