title: Modular electron donor group tuning of frontier energy levels in diarylaminofluorenone push-pull molecules.
abstract: Push-pull organic molecules composed of electron donor diarylamines at the 2- and 2,7-positions of fluorenone exhibit intramolecular charge-transfer behaviour in static absorption and emission spectra. Electrochemical and spectral data combined in a modular electronic analysis model show how the donor HOMO and acceptor LUMO act as major determinants of the frontier molecular orbital energy levels.
