Exciplex Emissive Supramolecular Polymer Formed By Tuning Molecular Conformation

We demonstrated the exciplex emission of supramolecular polymers (Bipy-1) possessing bipyridine and pyrene moieties. The distinctive exciplex emission of the supramolecular polymers was controlled by tuning the molecular conformation in different composition ratios of a mixed DMSO/H2O solution. The strong exciplex emission of the supramolecular polymer I with yellow emission was a consequence of the intramolecular charge-transfer interactions in a mixed DMSO/H2O (60 : 40-1 : 99 v/v) solution.
