Non-Linear Optical Activity of Chiral Bipyrimidine-Based Thin Films. Chem Asian J 2024; 19:e202400112.

Abstract
An original series of bipyrimidine-based chromophores featuring alkoxystyryl donor groups bearing short chiral (S)-2-methylbutyl chains in positions 4, 3,4 and 3,5, connected to electron-accepting 2,2-bipyrimidine rings, has been developed. Their linear and non-linear optical properties were studied using a variety of techniques, including one- and two-photon absorption spectroscopy, fluorescence measurements, as well as Hyper-Rayleigh scattering to determine the first hyperpolarizabilities. Their electronic and geometrical properties were rationalized by TD-DFT calculations. The thermal properties of the compounds were also investigated by a combination of polarized light optical microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry measurements and small-angle X-ray scattering experiments. The derivatives were found not to have mesomorphic properties, but to exhibit melting temperatures or cold crystallization behavior that enabled the isolation of well-organized thin films. The nonlinear optical properties of amorphous or crystalline thin films were studied by wide-field second harmonic generation and multiphoton fluorescence imaging, confirming that non-centrosymmetric crystal organization enables strong second and third harmonic generation. This new series confirms that our strategy of functionalizing 3D organic octupoles with short chiral chains to generate non-centrosymmetric organized thin films enables the development of highly second order nonlinear optical active materials without the use of corona-poling or tedious deposition techniques.

Abstract
New synthesized bipyrimidine-based chromophores presenting alkoxystyryl donor groups carrying aliphatic achiral and chiral chains in the 4 position, connected to electron-accepting 2,2-bipyrimidine cores have been synthesized. Their linear and nonlinear optical (NLO) properties were investigated as well as their mesomorphic properties by various techniques (light-transmission measurements, polarized-light optical microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry measurements and two-photon excited fluorescence). The derivatives with achiral linear carbon chains were found to exhibit liquid-crystal properties with the formation smectic phases over large temperature ranges, which were confirmed by small-angle X-ray scattering analysis via stacking models. The nonlinear optical properties in the solid state for derivatives with C14 and the citronellol chains have been studied by wide-field second-harmonic generation and multi-photon fluorescence imaging, confirming centrosymmetry for these achiral mesogens and their excellent third-order nonlinearity whereas the chiral compound exhibits non-centrosymmetric organization resulting in a strong Second Harmonic Generation at the crystal state.

Improved Bipolar Properties of Ester-Functionalized Discotic Diimine-Dithiolene Complexes. Chemphyschem 2024; 25:e202300675.

Abstract
A series of platinum diimine-dithiolene complexes with a 5,6-dihydro-1,4-dithiin-2,3-dithiolato (dddt2- ) dithiolene ligand and a bipyridine carrying tris-alkoxyphenyl fragments connected through an ester linker (bpyCn, n=8, 12, 16, 10(s), 20) (Scheme 1) has been developed. The mesomorphic properties of the ligands and of the platinum complexes have been investigated by a combination of DSC, POM and SAXS analyses. The platinum complexes were found to self-organize into columnar mesophases of hexagonal symmetry over large temperature range including room temperature. Their electronic properties were also characterized by a combination of electrochemistry, absorption and emission spectroscopy measurements and TD-DFT calculations. Besides being liquid crystalline, these compounds can undergo two oxidation processes and two reduction processes in a fully reversible manner, allowing the isolation of stable dicationic and dianionic species. Such a behavior is highly promising for the development of ambipolar semiconducting soft materials.

Weakly Self-Assembled [6]Helicenes: Circularly Polarized Light and Spin Filtering Properties. Chemistry 2023; 29:e202302254.

Abstract
Self-assembling features, chiroptical activity, and spin filtering properties are reported for 2,15- and 4,13-disubstituted [6]helicenes decorated in their periphery with 3,4,5-tris(dodecyloxy)-N-(4-ethynylphenyl)benzamide moieties. The weak non-covalent interaction between these units conditions the corresponding circularly polarized luminescence and spin polarization. The self-assembly is overall weak for these [6]helicene derivatives that, despite the formation of H-bonding interactions between the amide groups present in the peripheral moieties, shows very similar chiroptical properties both in the monomeric or aggregated states. This effect could be explained by considering the steric effect that these groups could generate in the growing of the corresponding aggregate formed. Importantly, the self-assembling features also condition chiral induced spin selectivity (CISS effect), with experimental spin polarization (SP) values found between 35-40 % for both systems, as measured by magnetic-conducting atomic force microscopy (AFM) technique.

Investigations of the Photothermal Properties of a Series of Molecular Gold-bis(dithiolene) Complexes Absorbing in the NIR-III Region. Chemistry 2023; 29:e202301789.

Abstract
The photothermal properties of a series of neutral radical gold-bis(dithiolene) complexes absorbing in the near-infrared-III window (1550-1870 nm) have been investigated. This class of complexes was found to be good photothermal agents (PTAs) in toluene under 1600 nm laser irradiation with photothermal efficiencies around 40 and 60 % depending on the nature of the dithiolene ligand. To the best of our knowledge, these complexes are the first small molecular photothermal agents to absorb so far into the near infrared. To test their applicability in water, these hydrophobic complexes have been encapsulated into nanoparticles constituted by amphiphilic block-copolymers. Stable suspensions of polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) encapsulating the gold-bis(dithiolene) complexes have been prepared which show a diameter around 100 nm. The encapsulation rate was found to be strongly dependent on the nature of the dithiolene ligands. The photothermal properties of the aqueous suspensions containing gold-bis(dithiolene) complexes were then studied under 1600 nm laser irradiation. These studies demonstrate that water has strong photothermal activity in the NIR-III region that, cannot be overcome even with the addition of gold complexes displaying good photothermal properties.

Abstract
Copper(I) halides are currently the subject of intensive research because of their rich photophysical properties combined with economic and eco-friendly advantages for practical applications. The molecular copper iodide cluster of the general formula [Cu4I4L4] (L = ligand) is a well-known photoluminescent compound, and the possibility to enlarge the panel of its photophysical properties is studied here, by exploring ligands bearing a distinct emitter. The comparative study of five copper iodide clusters coordinated by different phosphine ligands functionalized by the emissive cyanobiphenyl (CBP) group is thus described in this work. The emissive properties of the ligands have a great impact onto the photophysical properties of the cluster. Compared with classical [Cu4I4L4] copper iodide clusters, the origin of the emission bands is largely modified. The CBP moiety of electron acceptor character significantly lowers in energy the vacant orbitals and consequently affects the global energetic layout. These clusters present dual emission based on two different emissive centers which interplay through energy transfer. This study demonstrates that the design of original ligands is an effective approach to enrich the photophysical properties of the appealing family of copper halide complexes.

Abstract
We investigated a series of Mn2+-Prussian blue (PB) nanoparticles NazMnxFe1-x[Fe(CN)6]1-y□y·nH2O of similar size, surface state and cubic morphology with various amounts of Mn2+ synthesized through a one step self-assembly reaction. We demonstrated by a combined experimental-theoretical approach that during the synthesis, Mn2+ substituted Fe3+ up to a Mn/Na-Mn-Fe ratio of 32 at% in the PB structure, while for higher amounts, the Mn2[Fe(CN)6] analogue is obtained. For comparison, the post-synthetic insertion of Mn2+ in PB nanoparticles was also investigated and completed with Monte-Carlo simulations to probe the plausible adsorption sites. The photothermal conversion efficiency (η) of selected samples was determined and showed a clear dependence on the Mn2+amount with a maximum efficiency for a Mn/Na-Mn-Fe ratio of 10 at% associated with a dependence on the nanoparticle concentration. Evaluation of the in vitro photothermal properties of these nanoparticles performed on triple negative human breast adenocarcinoma (MDA-MB-231) cells by using continuous and pulsed laser irradiation confirm their excellent PTT efficiency permitting low dose use.

Abstract
New thermosensitive liposomes with a phase transition at 42 °C, containing nickel-bis(dithiolene) complexes as efficient and stable photothermal agents, have been formulated and characterized. These liposomes are highly stable and keep their contents at 37 °C for more than 30 days. On the contrary, the mild hyperthermia generated by the nickel-bis(dithiolene) complex under 940 nm NIR irradiation allows for the fine controlled release of the liposome contents, making such liposomes highly suitable for on-demand drug delivery in the human body under NIR laser irradiation. These liposomes can also be directly used, as shown here, as nanoagents for photothermal therapy. In fact, strong cell death can be generated under laser irradiation in the presence of these photothermally active nanocargos containing less than 10% w/w of metal complex. We also demonstrate, for the first time, that nickel-bis(dithiolene) complexes are good photoacoustic agents, generating easily detectable ultrasonic signals directly proportional to the concentration of complexes and the used laser power.

Platinum diimine dithiolene complexes bearing mesogenic groups on one or both ligands have been prepared through an original ligand metathesis reaction to introduce the dithiolene ligand. The neutral diimine ligands, the intermediate platinum dichloride diimine complexes, and the target compounds were characterized by a combination of electronic (electrochemistry, absorption and emission spectroscopy, DFT calculations) and structural (SAXS, DSC) tools. Several novel liquid crystalline platinum diimine-dithiolene were identified over a large temperature range, and the systems were endowed with ambipolar properties, associated with the high reversibility of both oxidation and reduction processes.

Abstract
Piling up excited states to reach upconversion (UC) is severely restricted by vibrational quenching mechanisms, especially when one looks at discrete molecular entities in solution. By carefully controlling the supramolecular assembly processes resulting from the strong electrostatic interactions between negatively charged Yb complexes and Tb3+ cations in aqueous solutions, we engineered the formation of heteropolynuclear complexes of [(YbL)2Tb x] compositions ( x = 1 and 2). These edifices display a phenomenon of cooperative photosensitization UC with green emission of the Tb cations upon NIR excitation at 980 nm in the Yb absorption band. The photophysical properties of the complexes were carefully investigated by steady-state and time-resolved luminescence experiments in D2O, allowing one to quantify the impact of the composition and pD of the solution on the emission intensity as well as clarifying the exact cooperative photosensitization upconversion mechanism. Using optimized conditions, the energy transfer UC process could be observed for the first time in nondeuterated water with discrete molecular compounds.

Abstract
In the presence of fluoride anions, [LnL(H2 O)]+ complexes, based on the coordination of a lanthanide (Ln) cation into the cavity of a C2v symmetrical cyclen-based ligand (L), self-assemble in water to form [(LnL)2 F]+ dimers. The crystal structures of the Yb hydrated monomer and of the fluorinated dimer are reported and analyzed to unravel the impact of the cumulative effect of weak hydrogen bonding and aromatic stacking interactions in the supramolecular assembly. The assembly is stable over a broad range of pH 3-8. A combination of equimolar amounts of Eu and Tb complexes led to a quasistatistical mixture of homo- and heterodimers, as observed by using electrospray mass spectrometry. In the heterodimers, selective excitation into the 7 F6 →5 D4 absorption band of the Tb center at λ=488 nm allowed the observation of a Tb-to-Eu downshifting energy transfer, not observed in the absence of fluoride ions. Analysis of the excited-state lifetimes of the dimers within the frame of the Förster theory of energy transfer showed the transfer to have an efficiency of 34 %, with a corresponding Förster radius of 4.1 Å; thereby, unraveling the short Ln-Ln distance as a crucial parameter of the energy-transfer process. By using equimolar mixtures of the Tb and Eu complexes, the energy-transfer phenomenon was used for a ratiometric sensing of fluoride anions in water with a detection limit of 17.7 nm.

Abstract
The design of efficient noncentrosymmetric materials remains the ultimate goal in the field of organic second-order nonlinear optics. Unlike inorganic crystals currently used in second-order nonlinear optical applications, organic materials are an attractive alternative owing to their fast electro-optical response and processability, but their alignment into noncentrosymmetric film remains challenging. Here, symmetry breaking by judicious functionalization of 3D organic octupoles allows the emergence of multifunctional liquid crystalline chromophores which can easily be processed into large, flexible, thin, and self-oriented films with second harmonic generation responses competitive to the prototypical inorganic KH2 PO4 crystals. The liquid-crystalline nature of these chiral organic films also permits the modulation of the nonlinear optical properties owing to the sensitivity of the supramolecular organization to temperature, leading to the development of tunable macroscopic materials.

Abstract
A series of ionic associates based on the platinum(II) chelate of 5-sulfo-8-quinolinol, [Pt(qS)2](2-), and ammonium-based amphiphiles is described. At variance with the prototypical neutral complex Pt(q)2 (q=8-quinolinol), these dianionic fluorophores, functionalized at the periphery with sulfonate groups, can be associated by the ionic self-assembly approach with various ammonium cations, such as (H2n+1Cn)2Me2N(+) (n=12, 16, 18) or complex ammonium cations carrying three Cn carbon chains (n=12, 14, 16) and an additional amide group. Investigations of their luminescence properties in solution, in the solid state, and, when possible, in thin films revealed that the phosphorescence properties in condensed phases are directly correlated to intermolecular interactions between the luminescent [Pt(qS)2](2-) centers. Of particular interest is also the formation of a columnar liquid-crystalline phase around room temperature (between -25 and +180 °C), as well as the very good film-forming ability of some of these fluorophores from organic solvents.

Abstract
Control of band filling or doping of molecular (semi)conductors can be performed by substitutional insertion of molecules with a similar shape but a different electron count, with one more or one less electron. This strategy has been explored here within the semiconducting, single-component, radical gold dithiolene complex [AuOC4] bearing para-butoxyphenyl substituents. Alloying with the corresponding neutral nickel dithiolene complex [NiOC4] lacking one electron afforded a complete isostructural series [NiOC4]1-x[AuOC4]x, spanning the whole composition range from x = 0 to x = 1 by 0.1 increments, further characterized by X-ray diffraction and EDX analyses. Magnetic susceptibility data confirm the antiferromagnetic interactions between neighboring radical gold dithiolene complexes. The electrical conductivity increases exponentially with the x gold fraction, while the activation energy remains constant in the more conducting, gold-rich samples. This behavior is tentatively assigned to the tunneling barriers of variable width (with x) but of constant height, separating more conducting gold-rich segments. Comparison of redox potentials for the 1e(-) oxidation and reduction of both [NiOC4] and [AuOC4] dithiolene complexes indicates that the [NiOC4] nickel complex does not act as a dopant for the radical [AuOC4] complex.

Abstract
The proper functionalization of nickel bis(dithiolene) complexes by pendant cholesteryl fragments allows for the formation of extended networks of intertwined fibers providing robust gels. Furthermore, such nickel bis(dithiolene) complexes are also efficient photothermal centers in solution in the near infrared (NIR), with a photothermal conversion efficiency comparable to that of gold nanoparticles. This unprecedented association in one single molecule, of the two properties, i.e., gelation ability and photothermal effect, gives a highly efficient handle to modulate the gel stability through light irradiation in the NIR region, providing a novel approach to photoresponsive gels.

Abstract
Lanthanide complexes (Ln=Eu, Tb, and Yb) that are based on a C2 -symmetric cyclen scaffold were prepared and characterized. The addition of fluoride anions to aqueous solutions of the complexes resulted in the formation of dinuclear supramolecular compounds in which the anion is confined into the cavity that is formed by the two complexes. The supramolecular assembly process was monitored by UV/Vis absorption, luminescence, and NMR spectroscopy and high-resolution mass spectrometry. The X-ray crystal structure of the europium dimer revealed that the architecture of the scaffold is stabilized by synergistic effects of the EuFEu bridging motive, π stacking interactions, and a four-component hydrogen-bonding network, which control the assembly of the two [EuL] entities around the fluoride ion. The strong association in water allowed for the luminescence sensing of fluoride down to a detection limit of 24 nM.
