The target structures were characterized by steady-state UV/Vis absorption, fluorescence and transient absorption spectroscopy, as well as cyclic and differential pulse voltammetry. Crystal structure analysis of the macrocycles revealed insights into the bridge arrangements. The properties of the macrocyclic bridges were compared to linear oligothiophene reference compounds which itself exhibited an unusual electrochemical effect.}, subject = {Perylenbisdicarboximide}, language = {en} }
