Core extension of alkylene-encapsulated perylene bisimides

Key Points

• The aim is to enhance the properties of perylene bisimides through molecular engineering techniques.
• Utilized long-axis covalent macrocyclic encapsulation
• Applied short-axis core-extension techniques
• Assessed emission states in both solution and solid states
• Aggregation is suppressed by macrocyclic encapsulation
• Dual-state emission is achieved in both solution and solid states
• Enhanced optical properties through core-extension techniques
