Transition metal complexes meet the rylenes

Abstract

This Perspective highlights an emerging area of metal–organic chromophore science related to the photochemistry and photophysics of coordination compounds and organometallic structures covalently tethered to rylene (naphthalene-cored) imide and diimide scaffolds. This combination of molecules renders highly colourful structures producing an array of excited state behaviour and in some instances strongly aggregated self-assembled metal–organic architectures.
