A strongly fluorescent bistable rotaxane is described in which the relative position of the macrocyclic ring with respect to a solvatochromic fluorophore gives a strong response in the spectral domain.

Perylene-monoimide dyes with solubilizing aryloxy substituents at the perylene perimeter and a synthetic handle on the N-aryl group are valuable building blocks for incorporation as accessory pigments in porphyrin-based light-harvesting arrays. A family of such dyes has been prepared by reaction of 1,6,9-tris(4-tert-butylphenoxy)perylene-3,4-dicarboxylic anhydride with a set of 4-iodo/ethynyl anilines (with or without 2,6-diisopropyl substituents) in the presence of Zn(OAc)2·2H2O in imidazole/mesitylene at 130°C. The workup procedures throughout the synthesis have been streamlined for scale-up purposes, minimizing chromatography. Two bis(perylene)porphyrin building blocks were prepared in a rational manner and examined in Sonogashira and Glaser polymerizations. The two isopropyl groups on the N-aryl group and the three 4-tert-butylphenoxy groups at the perylene perimeter are essential for high solubility of the bis(perylene)porphyrins and corresponding oligomers in organic solvents.

The present invention provides methods, compounds, and compositions for the synthesis of light harvesting arrays, such arrays comprising: (a) a first substrate comprising a first electrode; and (b) a layer of light harvesting rods electrically coupled to said first electrode, each of said light harvesting rods comprising a polymer of Formula (I): wherein m is at least 1; X1 is a charge separation group, and X2 through Xm+1 are chromophores. At least one of X2 through Xm+1 has at least one perylene group coupled thereto.
