General Description

Pyrazino[2,3-f][1,10]phenanthroline is a ligand which is used in the synthesis of copper(I)- phenanthroline complexes which are used in molecular device technology and in solar-energy conversion. It functions as an electron acceptor and the electron density is delocalized on the quinoxaline ring. The absorption and emission properties and the excited state lifetimes of these phenanthroline based copper complexes can be fine-tuned easily.
