- 1,2,5,6- [9][10] and 2,3,6,7-naphthalene diimides (NDIs) have been produced and utilized in electronically active polymers (Figure 1). The linear extension of 1,4,5,8-naphthalene diimide to produce tetracene [11] and hexacene [12] diimides, some with interesting properties such as near-IR absorption, has
- 8-Ph, with λmax = 489 and 499 nm, respectively. These absorption features are roughly comparable to other naphthalene and anthracene diimides that have been reported in the literature. The emission profiles of all four compounds are shown in Figure 3b. While N,N’-dibutyl-1,4,5,8-naphthalene diimide

- possibility of orthogonal switching (redox and light) enables an electrochemical “writing” of data which can be subsequently locked by a light stimulus. The TTF-based doubly interlocked crown/ammonium rotaxane 19 recently reported by us consists of a divalent axle with a π-electron-poor central naphthalene
- diimide (NDI) unit and a divalent crown-ether wheel with a central TTF unit (Figure 17) [86]. The cofacial donor–acceptor complex whose formation is indicated by a deep green color is forced to stay in a cofacial orientation by mechanical bonding, even when the complex is redox-switched. UV–vis
