Spiro-fused bis-hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene.

2018

A spiro-fused hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene dimer was synthesized, and its physicochemical properties were studied by UV-Vis absorption and emission spectroscopy as well as cyclic voltammetry. Chemical oxidation of SB-HBC afforded its radical cation and dication derivatives, which could be reversibly reduced to the neutral state.

A Phenylene-Bridged Cyclohexa-meta-phenylene as Hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene Precursor.

2018

A phenylene-bridged cyclohexa-meta-phenylene was synthesized via intramolecular Yamamoto coupling of an appropriate p-quinquephenyl derivative carrying four m-chlorophenyl substituents. The structural proof could be obtained by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, which also revealed a slightly strained structure with an internal phenylene bridge. Notably, this cyclo-meta-phenylene served as a novel precursor for hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene (HBC). The cyclodehydrogenation proceeded smoothly, providing the corresponding HBC derivative as confirmed by MALDI-TOF-MS, and UV/Vis spectroscopy.

An ab initio study of the relation between NMR chemical shifts and solid-state structures: hexabenzocoronene derivatives

2000

The assignment of solid-state NMR spectra is studied by the use of model systems computed with ab initio methods. The investigated system is a hexabenzocoronene derivative, for which a T-like arrangement of dimer units is found in the solid-state structure. Here, a tetramer model is required to explain the intermolecular interactions influencing the spectrum, whereas a dimer model is found to be inadequate. For the tetramer model, agreement of the computed NMR spectrum with the experimental solid-state magic angle spinning MAS-NMR data is observed. This study implies that the combination of experimental NMR data with quantum chemical calculations can be employed as a useful tool in determin…

A water-soluble hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene: synthesis, self-assembly and role as template for porous silica with aligned nanochannels

2005

A water-soluble hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene was prepared and shown to undergo ordered columnar self-assembly either in water solution or bulk and therefore served as template for the fabrication of porous silica with aligned nanochannels.

Synthesis and helical supramolecular organization of discotic liquid crystalline dibenzo[hi,st]ovalene

2019

Dibenzo[hi,st]ovalene (DBOV) has emerged as a new polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) with intriguing optical properties with strong red emission. Nevertheless, DBOV derivatives thus far synthesized either had mesityl groups that hinder the pi-pi stacking of the aromatic cores or showed low solubility, and the self-assembly of DBOVs has not been investigated. In this work, two 3,4,5-tris(dodecyloxy)phenyl (TDOP) groups are introduced at the meso-positions of DBOV in order to enhance its solubility without compromising the intermolecular interactions. The obtained DBOV-TDOP forms at elevated temperatures a discotic liquid crystalline phase. Due to pi-pi-stacking interactions as well as loc…

Photomodulation of Two-Dimensional Self-Assembly of Azobenzene-Hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene-Azobenzene Triads

2019

International audience; Achieving exquisite control over self-assembly of functional polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) and nanographene (NG) is essential for their exploitation as active elements in (nano)technological applications. In the framework of our effort to leverage their functional complexity, we designed and synthesized two hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene (HBC) triads, pAHA and oAHA, decorated with two light-responsive azobenzene moieties at the pseudo-para and ortho positions, respectively. Their photoisomerization in solution is demonstrated by UV–vis absorption. 1H NMR measurements of oAHA suggested 23% of Z-form can be obtained at a photostationary state with UV irradiation …

DFT study of the interaction free energy of p–p complexes of fullerenes with buckybowls and viologen dimers

2011

We present a theoretical investigation, by means of DFT protocols, of the complexation thermodynamics of (i) complexes of C70 and C60 fullerenes with bowl-shaped hexabenzocoronene derivatives and (ii) complexes of C60 with viologen dimers. The recent functionals of the M06 family, accounting for p-p interactions to a good level of approximation, have been used to calculate the interaction free energies. For the former complexes, the good agreement between the calculated results and the experimental data confirms the reliability of the protocol used. On these grounds, we then checked the stability of a series of complexes of C60 with some viologen dimers, 1BPnBP1 (n = 6-9), where two N-methy…
