Hydrogen Bond-Directed Self-Assembly of a Novel Pyrene Derivative

A symmetrical pyrene derivative chemical structure was prepared by a classical synthetic method such as the Sonogashira cross-coupling reaction. The molecular structure of the product was characterised in detail by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), mass spectrometry (MS) and other methods. Furthermore, the optical properties of the novel products were studied by UV-vis and photoluminescence spectroscopy. The electrochemical properties of the molecules were fully characterised by comparison of electrochemical experiments and DFT simulation. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) observed that the product successfully formed a regular self-assembly structure. The product verifies the role of the molecular structure of the disc-mounted molecules on the optical and self-assembly properties, and is of reference value in the field of organic optoelectronic molecules
