Multifunctional and Stimuli-responsive Coordination Cages
Speaker: Guido Clever (Dortmund)
Multifunctional and Stimuli-responsive Coordination Cages G. H. Clever * Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology, TU Dortmund University, Germany guido.clever@tu -dortmund.de Banana -shaped bis-monodentate ligands react with Pd(II) cations to coordination compounds with a broad range of topologies from small Pd 2L4 cages, their interpenetrated dimers, rings of various size up to large Pd 24L48 spheres. 1 We introduce stimuli-responsive behaviour triggered by small molecules or light leading to the modulation of guest affinity 2 or complete structural reorganization (Figure a). 3 Interpenetrated double cages consisting of donor and acceptor moieties were shown to undergo light-induced charge separation but suffer from a lack of control over stoichiometry and stereochemistry (Figure b). 4 Therefore, we recently started to apply principles of geometric shape complementarity to control the structure and composition of heteroleptic cages (Figure c). 5 On the other hand, circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) was observed for chiral Pt(II) complexes (Figure d). 6 Advanced self -assembly strategies will enable the targeted synthesis of supra-molecular systems and materials with increasing structural and functional complexity.

Using ab initio approaches to model, predict and understand the optical properties of organic and inorganic dyes - Joint Chemistry/Physics Colloquium
Speaker: Denis Jacquemin (Nantes)
Using ab initio approaches to model, predict and understand the optical properties of organic and inorganic dyes Denis Jacquemin Laboratoire CEISAM, UMR CNRS n°6230, Université de Nantes, 2, rue de la Houssinière, 44322 Nantes, Cedex 3, France. Denis.Jacquemin@univ -nantes.fr During this lecture, I will illustrate some of the successes and failures of Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory (TD -DFT) in simulating the properties of electronically excited -states, with a specific interest on structures of interest for dye chemistry. 1-2 Notably, I will discuss the importance of calculating vibronic effects to obtain accurate comparisons with experimental data, including 0 -0 energies and band shapes, and illustrate this aspect with several examples. 3 I will also present examples of applications of TD -DFT to real-life structures used in LEDs focussing on two examples: ESIPT -based organic dyes for white OLEDs 4 and inorganic complexes used in blue/green/red phosphors. 5 1 D.

Probing Ultrafast Chemical Dynamics Inspired by the Rhythms of Fireflies
Speaker: Greg Scholes (Princeton)
Probing Ultrafast Chemical Dynamics Inspired by the Rhythms of Fireflies Coherence phenomena arise from interference, or the addition, of wave -like amplitudes in phase [1] . While coherence has been shown to yield transformative new ways for improving function, advances have been limited to pristine matter, as quantum coherence is considered fragile. Here I will discuss how vibrational an d vibronic wavepackets entrain ensembles of molecules, like the synchronized flashing of fireflies . I will discuss how this can be used to probe mechanisms of ultrafast dynamics and how in -step vibrational motion might be employed to control function on ul trafast timescales. I will give examples that include light -harvesting in photosynthesis, energy flow in organometallic molecules that is ‘wired’ by Fermi resonance, and ultrafast electron transfer in molecular systems.
