Exerting control on excited state processes has been a long-held goal in photochemistry.
One approach to achieve control has been to mimic biological systems in Nature (eg …

This Feature Article highlights the role of spatial confinement in controlling the fundamental
behavior of molecules. Select examples illustrate the value of using space as a tool to …

Organic thermoelectric (TE) materials provide a brand new perspective to search for high-
efficiency TE materials, due to their low thermal conductivity. The overlap of pz orbitals …

Radical reduction of alkyl halides and aerobic oxidation of alkyl aromatics are reported
using water-soluble container compounds (1 and 2). The reductions involve α, ω-dihalides …

Photoinduced electron transfer across an organic capsular wall between excited donors and
ground-state acceptors is established to occur with rate constants varying in the range 0.32 …

Results of our study on ultrafast electron transfer (eT) dynamics from coumarins (coumarin-1,
coumarin-480, and coumarin-153) incarcerated within octa acid (OA) capsules as electron …

Coumarins are well-known to exhibit environment-dependent excited-state behavior. We
have exploited this feature to probe the accessibility of solvent water molecules to coumarins …

Phosphorescence from pyrene especially at room temperature is uncommon. This emission
was recorded utilizing a supramolecular organic host and the effect due to the heavy atom …

With the desire to develop a sustainable green method to store and release solar energy via
a chemical reaction, we have examined the well‐investigated norbornadiene‐quadricyclane …

Excited state chemistry and physics of molecules, in addition to their inherent electronic and
steric features, depend on their immediate microenvironments. This study explores the …
