organic electronics and optoelectronics. Introduction of metal modules to conjugated
molecules plays an important role in expanding the diversity of supramolecular self-
assembly. For example, properties of metal ions such as magnetism, redox, and
photochemical activities may be transcribed on the supramolecules. This thesis
reports a general strategy for the integration of metal species to π-electronic
compounds via conjugation. It demonstrates the first synthesis of conjugated
multinuclear metallo complexes and their assemblies to form two-dimensional
molecular tapes and sheets with unique electronic and photo functionalities. In
relation to these hole-transporting supermolecules, this thesis reports a new kind of n-
type conducting molecules with robust thermal stability, high processability, and large
electron mobility. These unique properties are unprecedented and highly correlated
with their well-defined supramolecular architectures.
   Along this line, I reports the development of novel functional macromolecules
via topological design, by focusing on the creation of a new class two-dimensional
polymers and the finding of light-harvesting effect of conjugated microporous
polymers. Exploration of functional macromolecules is one of the interesting and
central topics in chemistry, physics, and molecular science. Especially, π-electronic
macromolecules are indispensable in molecular devices such as biosensors, light-
emitting diodes, and plastic solar cells. Their capabilities of triggering emission,
photoinduced energy/electron transfers, and charge carrier transportation are key
factors that vitalize device performance. Various 1D conjugated polymers have been
developed for these purposes, while the molecular design of 3D conjugated polymers
has led to unique dendritic scaffolds for cascade energy transduction. To access 2D
polymeric architecture, elaborate modifications of 1D conjugated polymers have led
to findings of 2D anisotropic monolayers and thin films by SAM, LB, and LBL
techniques. Clearly, a covalent 2D polymer assures a robust and shape-persistent
polymer network with permanent order in its building blocks. Synthesis of such
covalent 2D polymers has been heavily pursed since they are expected to open
entirely new vistas for future science and technology. However, the existence of
covalent 2D polymers has not yet been proved and the development of a realistic way
to create such polymers remains a major challenge. This thesis describes the first
example of the synthesis of a covalent two-dimensional (2D) conjugated polymer,
which is a completely new class of polymer.
 As summarized in the above, my thesis consists of the design, synthesis, and
functional exploration of supermolecules and macromolecules, with an emphasis on
the development of novel π-electronic nanoarchitectures.

(1)The Noncovalent Assembly of Benzene-Bridged Metallosalphen Dimer:
Photoconductive Tapes with Large Carrier Mobility and Spatially Distinctive
Conduction Anisotropy
   In photoconduction, photo-generated charge carriers move to electrodes and
produce electric current. Studies on such photo-responsive molecules have been an
important part of progress in the field of solar energy conversion. Single crystals of
certain π-conjugated molecules, e.g., arenes, have been reported to become
photoconductive as a result of exciton migration and charge separation at the
molecule-electrode interface. However, small arenes absorb photons only in the
ultraviolet region, while large arenes with absorption bands extending to the visible
region require complicated synthesis along with tedious purification and are difficult
to process. Moreover, the undesirable photoinduced dimerization and bleaching of
arenes deter their application to optoelectronics. During a study on the assembly of
conjugated multinuclear metallocomplexes, I serendipitously discovered that these π-
electronic metallo-conjugates are photo-responsive, robust against irradiation and may
avoid the above drawbacks.In the first part, I describes a newly synthesized benzene-
bridged metallosalphen dimer tailored with alphatic chains, which is demonstrated for
the solution-processed assembly of a π-electronic tape. The tape is unique in that it
shows a large intrinsic carrier mobility, is spatially anisotropic in conduction, forms
p- or n-type semiconductors tunable upon doping. I emphasizes that the tape is highly
responsive to visible light irradiation, triggers prominent photocurrent generation,
shows on/off ratios as high as 9.0 × 104 and is capable of repeated on-off switching
without deterioration. Molecular design of bridged dinuclear metallocomplexes has
led to the findings of unusual physical properties and utilities such as catalysts,
mimicry for biological enzymes, molecular magnets, building blocks for coordination
polymers and MOFs. However, photo functions have been unexplored to date.

(2) Noncovalently Netted, Photoconductive Sheets with Extremely High Carrier
Mobility and Conduction Anisotropy from Triphenylene-Fused Metal Trigon
Conjugates
   Studies on conjugated molecules have been one of the central subjects in organic
electronics and optoelectronics. Introduction of metal modules to conjugated
molecules plays an important role in expanding the diversity of supramolecular self-
assembly. For example, properties of metal ions such as magnetism, redox, and
photochemical activities may be transcribed on the supramolecules. In this context,
triphenylene, a typical conjugated planar molecule, is an intriguing motif for such a
purpose due to its utility in supramolecular assembly. However, up to date, metal-
containing triphenylene derivatives have been limited to only thio-ligated bismuth and
silver crystalline solids. In relation to the first part, here, I reports the first example of
triphenylene-fused metal trigon conjugates, where multinuclear metal sites are
connected to one another via conjugation with triphenylene core. The metal trigon
upon self-assembly forms well-defined 2D sheet, which harvests a wide range of
photons, converts them to bright emission, and allows exciton migration. Moreover,
the 2D sheet is semiconducting with a high carrier mobility and capable of repetitive
on-off current switching at room temperature. The noncovalent 2D sheet is
photoconductive to exhibit a quick response to visible light irradiation with large
on/off ratio. Spatial anisotropy in conductivity reveals that the sheet assembly favors a
conduction path perpendicular to the stacked sheets other than the one along the sheet
planes. These characters are unique and clearly originate from the highly ordered
molecular structure of the noncovalent sheet assembly.

(3)Pyrene-Fused Phenazine Bisimides as Robust, Solution Processable and
Chemically Addressable n-Channel Organic Semiconductors
   Organic semiconductors have attracted great interests in relation to their utilities
in optoelectronics and molecular electronics. In contrast to rich varieties of p-type
semiconductor, n-type organic semiconductor has been very limited in numbers to
certain electron-withdrawing π-conjugation systems including perfluorinated aromatic
compounds, heteroaromatic compounds, and fullerene derivatives. Due to electronic
deficient nature, n-type organic semiconductors are usually unstable and air sensitive
in conducting condition. Recently, bisimides with aromatic cores such as anthracene,
naphthalene, perylene, and tetrathiafulvalene moieties have been reported to function
as n-type semiconductor, which allows supramolecular self-assembly upon tailoring
at bisimide terminals with alkyl chains to fabricate various nanostructured devices.
Very recently, phenazine compounds have been demonstrated to be n-type
semiconductor with high carrier mobility due to the presence of electron-withdrawing
imine units. In this part, I report a molecular system combining three structural
parameters (1) bisimide terminals, (2) phenazine linkages, and (3) an extended π-
conjugation pyrene core, i.e., pyrene-fused phenazine bisimide as a novel n-type
organic semiconductor. I highlights that such a topological design allows a multiple
combination of high thermal and air stability, ordered crystalline packing together
with facile solution processability. Moreover, protonation of phenazine units leads to
the generation of quadruple cationic bisimide, thus converting the conjugated neutral
skeleton to positively charged backbone. We found that bisimide and cationic
bisimide are n-type semiconducting with the largest charge carrier mobility of 4.1
cm2V-1s-1 and capable of stable repetitive on/off current switching in ambient
condition.

(4) Synthesis of Covalent Two-Dimensional Polymers Using a Topological Approach
   Conjugated polymers are commonly used for a wide variety of applications.
Extensive research has led to the realization of one-dimensional linear and three-
dimensional hyperbranched and dendritic conjugated polymers. Despite tremendous
efforts, a fully-characterized covalent two-dimensional conjugated polymer has not
yet been achieved and its creation remains a substantial challenge. In this part I
reports the synthesis of a two-dimensional conjugated poly(para-phenylene), by
covalently 'knitting' one-dimensional linear conjugated chains, based on a specific
topological two-dimensional cross-coupling polycondensation reaction. This 2D
polymer is crystalline and consists of flat square sheets with very clear and smooth
edges. It holds extremely dense interwoven longitudinal and latitudinal straight chains
of 6.6 × 106 cubic micrometer and possesses persistent, long-range, periodic
repeating-unit order. Electronic experiments and transient conductivity measurements
predict that two-dimensional conjugated polymers would exhibit completely novel
properties when used in molecular electronics and optoelectronics.

(5) Light-Harvesting Conjugated Microporous Polymers: Spatial Confinement
and Inner Surface-Interfered Energy Transduction

   Conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs) are amorphous polymers with
conjugated framework and inherent three-dimensional porous structure. Owing to their
unique pore sizes which could be tuned through molecular design, CMPs serve
as a bridge between zeolites and MOFs/COFs. However, most studies to date have
mainly focused on the gas storage and separation properties. I envisioned that the
highly dense π-electronic components of CMPs framework could serve as antennae
for collecting photons, while the well-defined inner pores could embed and spatially
confine energy-accepting counterparts, thus leading to the fabrication of a
supramolecular system for energy transduction mediated by the large inner surface of
CMPs. In the last part of this thesis, the author reports the first example of light-
harvesting CMPs, which consist of microporous polyphenylene framework as
antennae and coumarin 6 noncovalently encapsulated within the pore as energy-
accepting pool. The CMP-based light-harvesting system not only allows the creation
of a novel noncovalent energy donor-acceptor array but much importantly makes it
possible a directional pinpoint energy transfer from the framework to the energy
converter. These characters together with a large inner surface facilitate the energy
transduction process and result in an almost 100% energy transfer quantum eficiency.
These unique properties constitue an important step to the utility of CMPs in sensing
and optoelectronics.
   Exploration of functional supramolecular and macromolecular nanoarchitectures
is a subject that has a high probability to lead to the development of new materials. In
summary, the author has developed a series of novel π-electronic supermolecules and
macromolecules. The author designed and synthesized a series of new π-electronic
multinuclear metallo conjugates and n-type conjugated molecules and succeeded in
the construction of π-electronic two-dimensional assemblies. By using topological
molecular design, a new class of polymers, i.e., covalent two-dimensional polymer
was created. By exploration of the porous channel, a novel light-harvesting antenna
based on conjugated microporous polymers was established. These π-electronic
organic architectures show unique photo and electrical functions that clearly originate
from their highly ordered structures and thus open a new way to molecular
optoelectronics and electronics.","subitem_description_type":"Other"}]},"item_1_description_7":{"attribute_name":"学位記番号","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_description":"総研大甲第1272号","subitem_description_type":"Other"}]},"item_1_select_14":{"attribute_name":"所蔵","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_select_item":"有"}]},"item_1_select_8":{"attribute_name":"研究科","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_select_item":"物理科学研究科"}]},"item_1_select_9":{"attribute_name":"専攻","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_select_item":"07 構造分子科学専攻"}]},"item_1_text_10":{"attribute_name":"学位授与年度","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_text_value":"2009"}]},"item_creator":{"attribute_name":"著者","attribute_type":"creator","attribute_value_mlt":[{"creatorNames":[{"creatorName":"CHEN, Long","creatorNameLang":"en"}],"nameIdentifiers":[{}]}]},"item_files":{"attribute_name":"ファイル情報","attribute_type":"file","attribute_value_mlt":[{"accessrole":"open_date","date":[{"dateType":"Available","dateValue":"2016-02-17"}],"displaytype":"simple","filename":"甲1272_要旨.pdf","filesize":[{"value":"663.7 kB"}],"format":"application/pdf","licensetype":"license_11","mimetype":"application/pdf","url":{"label":"要旨・審査要旨","url":"https://ir.soken.ac.jp/record/1486/files/甲1272_要旨.pdf"},"version_id":"c1322268-0b09-4451-a60d-dad164066b61"}]},"item_language":{"attribute_name":"言語","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_language":"eng"}]},"item_resource_type":{"attribute_name":"資源タイプ","attribute_value_mlt":[{"resourcetype":"thesis","resourceuri":"http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_46ec"}]},"item_title":"Design and Functions of Novel Supramolecular and Macromolecular Nanoarchitectures","item_titles":{"attribute_name":"タイトル","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_title":"Design and Functions of Novel Supramolecular and Macromolecular Nanoarchitectures"},{"subitem_title":"Design and Functions of Novel Supramolecular and Macromolecular Nanoarchitectures","subitem_title_language":"en"}]},"item_type_id":"1","owner":"21","path":["9"],"pubdate":{"attribute_name":"公開日","attribute_value":"2010-06-09"},"publish_date":"2010-06-09","publish_status":"0","recid":"1486","relation_version_is_last":true,"title":["Design and Functions of Novel Supramolecular and Macromolecular Nanoarchitectures"],"weko_creator_id":"21","weko_shared_id":-1},"updated":"2023-06-20T15:59:16.932571+00:00"}
