This project aims at understanding the cooperative effects of multiple cooperative non-covalent interactions in extended self-assembled systems. Taking supramolecular BODIPY architectures as the target systems, we aim at functionalizing the BODIPY dyes with various substituents of different sizes and electronic nature to control the molecular overlap of dye molecules within the self-assembled structures. The contribution and cooperativity of the various non-covalent interactions will be studied by solution and solid-state methods, complemented by advanced solid-state NMR studies and theoretical calculations. This combination of methods will enable us to reveal the structure-property relationships for self-assembled BODIPY dyes and the complex interplay of multiple polarized heteroatoms and weak interactions, giving access to new supramolecular synthons that can be exploited by scientists in other disciplines.
