Research Abstract |
Self- -conjugated oligomers with open-shell electronic structure has been intnsively investigated as models of corresponding conducting polymers, but the details about the phenomena remains to be elucidated. In addition, recent years have witnessed a growing interest in supramolecular chemistry using such self-associations. In this study, based on our originally designed oligothiophenes, we have revealed relationship between structure and factors driving the self-association and have succeeded in the observations of redox-switching via gold nanoparticles and biradical character of dications.
