Hexaarylbenzenes provide the opportunity to merge several chromophores or redox centres in a well defined alignment^[1]. Thereby the steric configuration of these systems enables electronic and dipole interactions amongst the different functional substituents. Furthermore the hexaarylbenzenes can be easily prepared by transition metal catalyzed cyclotrimerisation of the appropriate tolane precursors. Based on these characteristics we are studying migration of charge and energy in donor and acceptor substituted multidimensional chromophores. The migration is investigated in the case of charge transfer by analysis of the charge transfer absorption band provided by the multidimensional Mulliken-Hush theory^[2] and in the case of energy transfer by polarized steady-state fluorescence spectroscopy^[3].
