Abstract

A series of polyphenylene-dendronized perylenes have been synthesized, and their physical and mesoscopic properties have been investigated. The attached polyphenylene dendrons have significant effects on the physical properties of the perylenes. They increase the solubility of perylenes in common organic solvents, suppress significantly the aggregation of the perylene core, and lead to red-shifted absorption and emission. The ...
