Abstract:The fusion of bipyridinium and their derivatives and metal ions to construct functional coordination compounds has attracted tremendous attention recently. Due to their advantages in easy modification, electron-deficient characteristic and photoelectrochemical activity, such compounds as smart stimuli-responsive materials, show a wide variety of intriguing applications including chromic response, switching, adsorption, sensing, magnet, and catalysis, etc. Based on the electron transfer (ET), charge transfer (C… Show more
