Abstract
Bidirectional
electronic energy shuttling is shown to occur between the molecular ring and
axle components of a rotaxane. The engineered energetic and kinetic parameters
give rise to long-lived, delayed luminescence.
Perturbation of the quasi-isoenergetic ring and stopper chromophore
excited-state energy levels upon cation binding influences the energy shuttling
process, and hence luminescence read-out, representing a new potential
mechanism in luminescent molecular chemosensor development
