Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Mixed-valence compounds have attracted great interest from the viewpoint of molecular quantum cellular automaton (QCA). In this study, we regard molecular mixed-valence compounds involving two redox-active components as QCA half-cells and aim to obtain insight into controlling charge distributions as information. We constructed homo- and hetero-conjugates by covalently linking redox-active organic and/or organometallic components and clarified the effects of the types of redox-active components and bridging moieties on intramolecular charge transfer. We also explored a chemical method to introduce guest anions as external charges.
