A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11912720B2) discloses a rigid macrocycle composed of three diimide subunits, including a poly(peri-naphthalene) diimide (PPNDI) subunit and two naphthalene diimide (NDI) or pyromellitic diimide (PMDI) subunits, connected by three chiral linking subunits. The macrocycle exhibits C2 symmetry and can be arranged in a crystalline composition with multiple macrocycles forming dimers through p-p stacking of PPNDI subunits. Additionally, the patent covers a photoluminescent material containing the rigid macrocycle, with a quantum yield greater than 0.5 and capable of emitting electromagnetic radiation within the range of 350 nm to 800 nm, with a peak wavelength between 500 nm to 715 nm.

Furthermore, the patent includes methods for preparing the rigid macrocycle through cyclocondensation of specific reagents and for stimulating light emission from the photoluminescent material by exciting it with electromagnetic radiation in the near-ultraviolet or visible range. The method emphasizes the importance of achieving a quantum yield greater than 0.5 and the arrangement of the macrocycles in dimers through p-p stacking of PPNDI subunits to enhance the photoluminescent properties. The patent's innovative approach to designing and utilizing these rigid macrocycles opens up possibilities for advanced materials with improved photoluminescent characteristics and potential applications in various fields requiring efficient light emission properties.
