Abstract

] was realized at the central phenyl ring and on the imidazole sides, resulting in four multichromophoric complexes. A thorough ground and excited state characterization was carried out in addition to extensive DFT calculations. The results clearly show an efficient decoupling utilizing the smallest possible space in a methylene bridge, realizing a reservoir effect for the anthracenyl-substituted complexes leading to excited state lifetimes beyond 5 ns.
