Abstract | Cited by

We report the synthesis and characterization of two new fluorophores, consisting of a [8]cyclo-para-phenylene core in which two phenylenes are bridged by either a nitrogen atom or a carbonyl group. The nitrogen bridge increases the HOMO–LUMO gap, whereas the carbonyl bridge decreases it. These results provide guidelines to control the electronic properties of nanohoops.
