Abstract
Herein, we report the synthesis of a novel intramolecular donor-acceptor (D-A) system ([12]CPP-8TPAOMe) based on cycloparaphenylenes (CPPs) grafted with eight di(4-methoxyphenyl)amino groups (TPAOMe) as donors. Compared to [12]CPP, D-A nanohoop exhibited significant changes in physical properties, including a large redshift (>78 nm) in the fluorescence spectrum and novel positive solvatofluorochromic properties with a maximum peak ranging from 484 nm to 546 nm. The potential applications of [12]CPP-8TPAOMe in electron- and hole-transport devices were further investigated, and its bipolar behavior as a charge transport active layer was clearly observed.
