Flattened Calixarene-like Cyclic BODIPY Array: A New Photosynthetic Antenna Model

Lone pair–π vs. σ-hole–π interactions in bromine head-containing oxacalix[2]arene[2]triazines

New bromine head-containing oxacalix[2]arene[2]triazines were synthesized. Owing to the bromine head and complementary V-shaped cavity, the solid state structure showed an intriguing and unique 1D-supramolecular chain-like self-assembly.

Synthesis of carbazole-based BODIPY dimers showing red fluorescence in the solid state

Carbazole-based BODIPY dimers 2a–g were synthesized via direct arylation.
