Supporting information for "Synthesis, assemble behaviors and optoelectronic properties of novel π-conjugated macrocycles"

The last two decades have witnessed the successful construction of plentiful π-conjugated macrocycles with complex topologies and aesthetic structures due to the increasingly sophisticated synthetic technology. At present, the examples of application for this family of molecules are still limited, especially for the fields of optoelectronic devices, albeit possessing many advantages, like large inner cavity, constrained conformation, absence of terminal groups, etc. Utilizing the structural characteristics of conjugated macrocycles and introducing heteroatoms to tune their electrical and optical properties, we synthesize a series of conjugated macrocycles and explore their applications on supramolecular assembly
