In the seeking of molecular expression of fractal geometry, chemists have endeavored in the construction of molecules and supramolecules during the past few years, while only a few examples were reported, especially for the discrete architectures. We herein designed and constructed five generations of supramolecular fractals (G1-G5) based on the coordination-driven self-assembly of terpyridine ligands. All the ligands were synthesized from triphenylamine motif, which played a central role in geometry control. Different approaches based on direct Sonogashira coupling and/or (tpy-Ru(II)- tpy) connectivity were employed to prepare complex Ru(II)-organic building blocks. Fractals G1-G5 were obtained in high yields by precise coordination of organic or Ru(II)-organic building blocks with Zn(II) ions. Characterization of those architectures were accomplished by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), traveling-wave ion mobility mass spectrometry (TWIM-MS), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Furthermore, the two largest fractals also hierarchically self-assemble into ordered supramolecular nanostructures either at solid/liquid interface or in solution on the basis of their well-defined scaffolds.

In this study, we overcame a challenge in conventional self-assembly of macrocycles that uses ditopic 2,2:6,2-terpyridine (tpy) building blocks with a 120angle between two ligating moieties, which generally produces a mixture of multiple macrocycles instead of a single hexagon. Two supramolecular hexagon wreaths, [Zn9LA6] and [Zn12LB6], were designed and self-assembled from tritopic and tetratopic tpy ligands with Zn(II) ions, respectively. These multitopic ligands, bearing multiple binding sites, increased the total density of coordination sites and provided high geometric constraints to induce the formation of discrete structures. Such hexagon wreaths, which were constructed by simple recursion of small hexagons around a central hexagon, exhibit fractal geometry features with self-similarity at different levels. The shapes, sizes, and structures were fully characterized by NMR, ESI-MS, traveling-wave ion mobility mass spectrometry (TWIM-MS), and transmission electron microscopy. With diameters around 5.5 nm for [Zn 9LA6] and 5.8 nm for [Zn12LB6], the remarkable rigidity of these fractal architectures was supported by TWIM-MS, in contrast to the high flexibility of macrocycles assembled by ditopic tpy ligands.

A novel series of red-light-emitting copolymers derived from fluorene and 2-pyran-4-ylidene-malononitrile (PM) have been synthesized through a palladium-catalyzed Suzuki coupling reaction. The polymers were characterized by FT-IR, NMR, and elemental analysis. All these polymers are completely soluble in common organic solvents, such as THF, CH2Cl2, CHCl3, and toluene, and they have good thermal stability with onset decomposition temperature (Td) of 406-407°C and glass-transition temperature (Tg) of 73-186°C. Cyclic voltammetry studies reveal that these copolymers have low-lying LUMO energy levels ranging from -3.53 to -3.57 eV and HOMO energy levels ranging from -5.77 to -5.79 eV, which indicated that they may be promising candidates for electron-transporting or hole-blocking materials in light-emitting diodes. These polymers in thin films can emit strong red photoluminescence (PL) around 641-662 nm with the corresponding additional peaks in the range 704-712 nm upon photoexcitation. Double-layer LEDs fabricated with the configuration of ITO/PEDOT/polymer/Ba/Al can emit red light with external quantum efficiencies of 0.21-0.38%. Preliminary electroluminescent (EL) results show that these polymers are novel promising candidates for red emissive materials in polymer light-emitting diodes.

Model 1,4-bis(styryl)benzene derivatives 1a,b related to poly(2-bromo-5-methoxy-1,4-phenylenevinylene) were synthesized to probe the effect of bromination on excited-state behavior of conjugated phenylenevinylene analogues. They showed solution absorption maxima at about 385 nm, without evidence of excimer formation up to 100μM. Their fluorescence spectra showed overlapping bands at 435 and 460 nm, with quantum yields in tetrahydrofuran of 0.16 and 0.21 for 1a and 1b, respectively. Excited-state transients were monitored by time-resolved laser flash spectroscopy at room temperature. The triplet states were characterized by absorption maxima at about 520-530 nm with lifetimes of about 0.6 μs, much longer than would be observed for prompt fluorescence states. The quantum yields of singlet to triplet-state intersystem crossing were determined to be 0.45 and 0.28 for 1a and 1b, respectively. The acceleration of triplet transient decay rates under increased oxygen pressure according to the Stern-Volmer law further supports the triplet-state assignments. The relatively high yields of intersystem crossing and low yields of fluorescence are attributed to a bromine-modulated heavy atom effect that enhances intersystem crossing between excited singlet and triplet states.
