Abstract

We demonstrate that incorporating nonplanar spiro-bridged structures is an effective strategy for tuning supramolecular interactions of optoelectronic functional moieties. In the model compounds spiro-bridged oligothiophene-S,S- dioxides (BSiSDTFO), unusual dimers constructed by spiro-bridged spacers do not form excimers, which is confirmed by crystallographic data and fluorescent emission spectra.
