title: Selective photoinduced energy transfer from a thiophene rotaxane to acceptor.
abstract: An energy transfer process was investigated using cyclodextrin-oligothiophene rotaxanes (2T-[2]rotaxane). The excited energy of 2T-[2]rotaxane is transferred to the sexithiophene derivative which is included in the cavity of β-CD stoppers of 2T-[2]rotaxane.
