Crystal engineering of heterocyclic arylene(ethynylene) oligomers through programmed aromatic stacking

Year: 2022

Type: article

Abstract: Electron-rich heteroarenes stack with perfluoroarene side chains and twist arylene-ethynylene conjugated oligomers, while electron deficient heterocycles do not. These trends correlate with X-ray structures, optical spectra, and computations.
