Abstract

Asymmetric, heteroleptic dinuclear bis(dipyrrinato)zinc(II) complexes were synthesized and demonstrated to collect a wide range of light across the UV and visible regions (340–655 nm). The complexes also conveyed excitons across their structure from one end to the other, with spectroscopic studies demonstrating quantitative and fast energy transfer.
