In this article, we investigated the design, synthesis and photophysical properties of <i>N,N'</i>-dimethyl-2,5-Bis(pyridinium)oxadiazole <b>4</b> and its precursor 2,5- Bis(pyridine)oxadiazole<b> 2</b>. The crystal structure and photophysical properties of viologen <b>4</b> and precursor <b>2</b> have been determined. The viologen molecule <b>4</b> crystallized in monoclinic form, space group <i>P</i>2<sub>1</sub>/<i>n</i> with four molecules in unit cell. Precursor molecule <b>2</b> also crystalized in monoclinic form, space group <i>C</i>2/<i>c</i> with four molecules in unit cell. From X-rd data, we found three cations in the molecular structure of viologen molecule <b>4</b>, which is unusual in viologens. In the three-dimensional molecular packing diagram of molecule <b>4</b>, the three cations and iodate anions are stabilized by C···C, C···I, N···I, N···H, H···I, N—H···I and C—H···I. The dihedral angle between planes having oxadiazole and two benzene rings are 5°and 8°, suggesting the molecule <b>4</b> is a slightly strained one. The molecular structure of precursor molecule <b>2</b> stabilized by C···C and N···H short contacts between the molecules. The molecule <b>4</b> displayed strong absorbance at 315 nm and emissions between 390 - 410 nm.展开更多
