Abstract

A cage molecule incorporating three electron donating monopyrrolotetrathiafulvalene units was synthesised to host electron accepting [60]fullerenes. Formation of a strong 1 : 1 donor-acceptor (D-A) complex C60⊂1 was confirmed by solid state X-ray analysis as well as (1)H NMR and absorption spectroscopic analyses of the arising charge-transfer (CT) band (λ = 735 nm, ε ≈ 840 M(-1) cm(-1)). Inserting Li(+) inside the [60]fullerene increased the binding 28-fold (Ka = 3.7 × 10(6) M(-1)) and a large bathochromic shift of the CT band to the near infrared (NIR) region (λ = 1104 nm, ε ≈ 4800 M(-1) cm(-1)) was observed.
