Abstract

Narrowing the gap: A compactly fused π‐conjugated molecule combines a high‐lying HOMO with a low‐lying LUMO (Eox−Ered=0.52 eV) and a fairly low‐lying LUMO+1 on the bridging unit, giving rise to strong optical charge‐transfer transitions. A facile electron transfer has been observed by EPR and NMR spectroscopies.
