Preliminary UV-vis, fluorescence and excitation measurements were carried out in CH2Cl2 and the results revealed an effective fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) system based on the interaction of pillar[5]arene and Bodipy derivative. epsilon(max) of target molecule reached to a maximum value and it was found as 955 000 M-1 cm(-1). This fluorescent macromolecule worked well for mimicking a light harvesting system with an energy transfer efficiency up to 92%. (C) 2018 Elsevier Ltd.
