Two dendrimers, D1 and D2, containing the cationic iridium complexes (C1 and C2) as cores and truxene-functionalized chromophores as the branches, have been developed by a convergent synthetic strategy. The cationic complexes employ 3-(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-1,2,4-triazole and 2-(pyridin-2-yl)-benzimidazole derivatives as the ancillary ligands. To avoid the change in emission colour arising from the iridium complex, the conjugation between the dendron and the ligand is decoupled by separating them using the alkyl chain. An investigation of their photoluminescent features reveals that efficient energy transfer happens from the dendrons to the core in the solid state. Likewise, the charged dendritic structure is demonstrated to be an efficient method to improve the compatibility between the polar charged iridium complexes and typical hydrophobic hosts with the additional benefit of excellent solution processability. Both dendrimers exhibit strong solvatochromic behaviours in solvents and exclusive green and yellow-orange light in the solid state.

Polyterpyridinyl multi-nuclear Ru2+ complex was synthesized through a heterocomplexation method. Introducing the tailed aliphatic chain greatly enhanced the solubility of multi-ionic paired complexes, which illustrated the photophysical and electrochemical structural differentiations.

We have investigated the solvent-dependence of structural changes along with intersystem crossing of a thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) molecule, 3,4,5-tri(9H-carbazole-9-yl)benzonitrile (o-3CzBN), in toluene, tetrahydrofuran, and acetonitrile solutions using time-resolved infrared (TR-IR) spectroscopy and DFT calculations. We found that the geometries of the S1 and T1 states are very similar in all solvents though the photophysical properties mostly depend on the solvent. In addition, the time-dependent DFT calculations based on these geometries suggested that the thermally activated delayed fluorescence process of o-3CzBN is governed more by the higher-lying excited states than by the structural changes in the excited states.<br>

Inspired by a previous experimental study on the first-order hyperpolarizabilities of 1,3-thiazolium-5-thiolates mesoionic compounds using Hyper-Rayleigh scattering technique, we theoretically investigated the UV-Vis absorption spectra and every order polarizabilities of these mesoionic molecules. Based on the fact that the photophysical and nonlinear properties observed in the experiment can be perfectly replicated, our theoretical calculations explored the essential characteristics of the optical properties of the mesoionic compounds with different electron-donating groups at the level of electronic structures through various wave function analysis methods. The influence of the electron-donating ability of the donor on the optical properties of the molecules and the contribution of the mesoionic ring moiety to their optical nonlinearity are clarified, which have not been reported by any research so far. This work will help people understand the nature of optical properties of mesoionic-based molecules and provide guidance for the rational design of molecules with excellent photoelectric performance in the future.
