Abstract
Supramolecules containing a photoluminescent center (PLC) exhibit prom pt and intense luminescence upon the molecular recognition of substrat es. Luminescence from supramolecular assemblies is triggered by substr ates that are light-harvesting and able to coordinate metal ion PLCs, light-harvesting and non-coordinating to PLCs, and non-absorbing and n on-coordinating. Our efforts to elaborate the photophysical schemes fo r these three classes of substrates are described herein.
