Energy transfer is a natural phenomena that bases of the photosynthesis. In photosynthesis, chlorophyls and auxlary absorbing dyes units absorb solar energy and transfer the energy to the reaction center where other chemical reactions occur.
Studies showed that energy transfer depends strongly on distance and rigidy of the structure. Rigid structures that close in space transfer energy nearly %100 efficiency.
Supramolecular chemistry tries to mimic nature and miniurize natural phenomence on to molecular scale. Thus, articifial photosynthesis has been very popular in supramolecular chemistry. A lot of studies have been dedicated to diffent parts of photosynthesis.
BODIPY dyes have very well defined photophysical properties that can be used in multichromic systems and designing molecular switching potential tool on in supramolecular chemistry.
In this study extended BODIPY dyes constructed on a rigid xanthane scaffold have been deviced for energy transfer.
