We dissected halogen–aryl π interactions experimentally using a bicyclic N-arylimide based molecular torsion balances system, which is based on the influence of the non-bonded interaction on the equilibria between folded and unfolded states. Through comparison of balances modulated by higher halogens with fluorine balances, we determined the magnitude of the halogen–aryl π interactions in our unimolecular systems to be larger than ?5.0 kJ mol?1, which is comparable with the magnitude estimated in the biomolecular systems. Our study provides direct experimental evidence of halogen–aryl π interactions in solution, which until now have only been revealed in the solid state and evaluated theoretically by quantum-mechanical calculations.

Development of new n-type one-dimensional (1D) self-assembly nanostructure and a clear understanding of the relationship between molecular structure and self-assembly behavior are important prerequisites for further designing and optimizing organic optoelectronic nanodevice. In this article, a series of n-type organic semiconductor materials based on pyrene imide were successfully synthesized through [4+2] cycloaddition reactions and their preliminary optical and electrochemical properties were studied. The simulated HOMO-LUMO bandgaps via DFT tallied with the experimental data well. The self-assembly of these materials showed needle or fiber-like morphologies, indicating that different conjugation degree or alkyl group had significant influence on their self-assembly behaviors. Furthermore, the single-crystal packing for these molecules were analyzed and it was found out that the changes of conjugated backbone and functional group would affect certain crystal lattice parameter significantly, such as the intermolecular packing distance and crystal size etc, which would further result in different self-assembly morphology.

Seven longitudinally twisted acenes (an anthracene, two tetracenes, three pentacenes, and a hexacene) have been synthesized by the addition of aryllithium reagents to the appropriate quinone precursors, followed by SnCl2-mediated reduction of their diol intermediates, and several of these acenes have been crystallographically characterized. The new syntheses of the three previously reported twisted acenes, decaphenylanthracene (1), 9,10,11,20,21,22-hexaphenyltetrabenzo[a,c,l,n]pentacene (2), and 9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16-octaphenyldibenzo[a,c]tetracene (14), resulted in a reduction of the number of synthetic steps. As a consequence their overall yields were increased by factors of 50-, 24-, and 66-fold, respectively. All of the twisted acene syntheses reported here are suitable for the synthesis of at least gram quantities of these remarkable hydrocarbon materials.
