Synthesis and Photophysical Properties of Small Helical Carbon Nanohoops Combined with Computational Studies on Racemization Pathway.
ChemPlusChem(2024)
Abstract
We herein report the facile synthesis of two helical carbon nanorings with small ring sizes, cyclo[6]paraphenylene-1,5-naphthylene ([6]CPPNap1,5), and cyclo[6]paraphenylene-1,5-anthrylene ([6]CPPAn1,5). The structures were determined by NMR and HR-MS. X-ray single-crystal data of [6]CPPNap1,5 was also achieved. The strain energy and racemization processes were investigated by DFT calculations. The reduced ring sizes result in increased ring strain and elevated energy barriers. The photophysical properties were studied by UV-Vis absorption, fluorescence emission, and time-resolved fluorescence decay.
