Abstract

A novel charge-transfer (CT) host system is developed using CT complexes composed of rac-3,3′-dihydroxy-1,1′-bi-2-naphthol and 1,1′-dibenzyl-4,4′-bipyridinium dichloride. This CT host complex has a 1D channel-like cavity in which guest (MeOH and EtOH) molecules can be discharged and adsorbed. The color and DRS of the CT crystals change according to the presence of guest molecules in the host complex.
