Angle-controlled synthesis and redox property of tetraphenylethene-based hexacationic triangular macrocycle

Abstract

A tetraphenylethene-based hexacationic triangular macrocycle (T 6+ •6PF 6 -) was synthesized via the Zincke reaction using anglecontrolled synthesis strategy. Under the chemical or electrochemical reduction conditions, T 6+ •6PF 6 -can undergo twostep reversible and stable redox transformations, accompanied by a distinct visual color change.
