Naphthalenediimide and its congeners have received a lot of attention in the past decade due to their use in many varied applications including organic photovoltaics, anion-slides, DNA binders and building blocks for complex molecular topologies. With each chapter written by one of the leading experts in the field, the book discusses the advances in naphthalenediimide and rylene diimide chemistry in the past 10 years and highlights potential and real applications for the molecules. This is the first book to cover this chemistry and provides a foundation for further development of the area and an invaluable resource for future generations of PhD students and postdoctoral researchers interested in supramolecular chemistry, materials science as well as the applications of the materials.
