The triplet excited states of molecules play an important role in photophysical processes, which has attracted great research interest. Perylene diimide (PDI) is a widely studied material closely associated with the generation of triplet states, and it is highly anticipated to become an electron acceptor material for improving photovoltaic conversion efficiency. In this work, we prepared dimers and tetramers composed of selenium-modified PDI-C5 ('-bis(6-undecyl) perylene-3,4,9,10-bis(dicarboximide)) units.

Herein, we report the synthesis of a novel carbaporphyrin incorporating perylene diimide (PDI) and dipyrromethane units. The twisted plane of the PDI subunits imbues carbaporphyrin with intriguing conformational chirality and stable chiroptical properties. Both experimental and theoretical studies reveal that the unique properties arise from the rigidly conjugated macrocyclic architecture and the reduced interchromophoric distance.

The adjustment of the emission wavelengths and cell permeability of the perylene diimides (PDI) for multicolor cell imaging is a great challenge. Herein, based on a bay-region substituent engineering strategy, multicolor perylene diimides () were rationally designed and synthesized by introducing azetidine substituents on the bay region of PDIs. With the fine-tuned electron-donating ability of the azetidine substituents, these showed high brightness, orange, red, and near infrared (NIR) fluorescence along with Stokes shifts increasing from 35 to 110 nm.

In computational chemistry, accurately predicting molecular configurations that exhibit specific properties remains a critical challenge. Its intricacies become especially evident in the study of molecular aggregates, where the light-induced functionality is tied to highly structure-dependent electronic couplings between molecules. Here, we present an efficient strategy for the targeted screening of the structural space employing a "functionality optimization" technique, in which a chosen descriptor, constrained by the ground state energy expression, is optimized.

Symmetry-breaking charge separation (SB-CS) has recently evolved as an emerging concept offering its potential to the latest generation of organic photovoltaics. However there are several concerns that need to be addressed to reach the state-of-the-art in SB-CS chemistry, for instance, the desirable molecular geometry, interchromophoric distance and extent of electronic coupling. To shed light on those features, it is reported herein, that -functionalized perylene monoimide (PMI) constituted regioisomeric dimer and trimer derivatives with varied molecular twisting and electronic conjugation have been synthesized.
