Research Abstract |
The research project is intended to construct the organic redox systems which exhibit the electrochemical response such as electrochromism. In order to realize such molecular systems a new way of molecular designing was adopted where (1) the charged species would be stabilized by formation of strong chromophores with large pi-conjugation but not by aromatization and (2) drastic structural changes should be occurred during the electron transfer. These conditions are quite different from what had been used to design the multi-stage redox systems for a long time. The "dynamic redox behavior"is the central concept in this work, thus the redox pairs were designed so as to undergo reversible C-C bond formation andcleavage upon electron transfer. Dibenzo-TTF derivatives inserted with a cycloalkane ring as well as their isomersof the tricyclic skeleton were studiedin detail as prototypes. Some molecules studies here were proven to be thereversible dynamic redox systems . In orderr to construct the electrochromic systems other molecules containing triarylmethane dye skeletons were designed. The reversible interconversion between hexaarylethane derivatives and bis (triarylmethane) dications was demonstrated .
