Energy transfer from aggregation-induced emissive o-carborane

Dual Chromophoric Meso-Aryl BODIPYs with Aggregation Induced Red-Emission Characteristics: Optical Properties and their Application in Fe3+ Detection

Herein, we report the design of meso-aryl BODIPYs as a structural motif for aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) to aggregation-induced emission (AIE) transformation. A series of meso-aryl BODIPY derivatives were synthesized, by systematically increasing the size of the chromophore at the meso-position from phenyl to pyrene. The effect of various factors, such as the aryl ring size, solvents, viscosity, and metal cations, on the photophysical properties was analyzed. The emission properties are well correlated with the flexibility of the aromatic ring for free rotation around the C_aryl−C_BODIPY bond. Accordingly, meso-phenanthrene BODIPY ( PhB ) has the highest emission characteristics. The emission property of less bulky aryl-substituted BODIPYs increases by increasing the solvent viscosity. The interaction of Fe³⁺ ions with aryl-BODIPYs provides a prominent photophysical response based on Lewis-acid supported decomplexation of BF₂ in aryl-BODIPYs. The bichromophoric meso-aryl BODIPYs exhibit notable intramolecular excitation energy transfer from the aromatic ring to the BODIPY core, which is higher in meso-anthracene BODIPY( AB ). Hence, decorating BODIPYs with polycyclic aromatic systems generates a twisted structure, which inhibits the π-π stacking between the planar aromatic molecules. This can be proposed as an effective approach at the molecular level to convert planar aryl luminophores having ACQ to AIEgens. Besides, the meso-pyrene BODIPY derivative shows excellent mechanofluorochromic behaviour.     

Controlling the Dual-Emission Character of Aryl-Modified o-Carboranes by Intramolecular CH⋅⋅⋅O Interaction Sites

It is still challenging to realize a dual-emission system, in which two luminescent bands simultaneously appear by photoexcitation, in solid with organic dyes due to the difficulty in regulation of electronic properties in the excited state and concentration quenching. o-Carborane is known to be a versatile platform for constructing solid-state emitters since the sphere boron cluster is favorable for suppressing intermolecular interactions and subsequently concentration quenching. Here, we show solid-state dual-emissive o-carborane derivatives. We prepared 4 types of o-carborane derivatives and found dual-emission behaviors both in solution and solid states. By regulating the rotation at the o-carborane unit with the intramolecular C_cageH⋅⋅⋅O interaction, the dual-emission intensity ratios were changed. Finally, it was demonstrated that the overall photoluminescence spectra can be estimated using the binding energy of intramolecular interactions.

Theoretical Simulations of Thermochromic and Aggregation-Induced Emission Behaviors of a Series of Red-Light Anthracene-o-carborane Derivatives

Quantum mechanical and molecular dynamics simulations have been carried out on a series of anthracene-o-carborane derivatives (ANT-H, ANT-Ph, ANT-Me and ANT-TMS) with rare red-light emission in the solid state. The simulation of the heating process of the crystals and further comparison of the molecular structures and excited-state properties before and after heating help us to disclose the thermochromic behavior, that is, the red-shift emission is caused by elongation of the C1−C2 bond in the carborane moiety after heating. Thus, we believe that the molecular structure in the crystal is severely affected by heating. Transformation of the molecular conformation appears in the ANT-H crystal with increasing temperature. More specifically, the anthracene moiety moves from nearly parallel to the C1−C2 bond to nearly perpendicular, causing the short-wavelength emission to disappear after heating. As for the aggregation-induced emission phenomenon, the structures and photophysical properties were investigated comparatively in both the isolated and crystal states; the results suggested that the energy dissipation in crystal surroundings was greatly reduced through hindering structure relaxation from the excited to the ground state. We expect that discussion of the thermochromic behavior will provide a new analysis perspective for the molecular design of o-carborane derivatives.     

Recent Progress in the Development of Solid-State Luminescent o-Carboranes with Stimuli Responsivity

o-Carborane, a cluster compound containing boron and adjacent carbon atoms, displays intriguing luminescent properties. Recently, compounds containing o-carborane units were found to show suppressed aggregation-induced quenching and intense solid-state emission; they also show potential for the development of stimuli-responsive luminochromic materials. In this Minireview, we introduce three kinds of fundamental photochemical properties: aggregation-induced emission, twisted intramolecular charge transfer in crystals, and environment-sensitive excimer formation in solids. Based on these properties, several types of luminochromism, such as thermos-, vapo-, and mechanochromism, have been discovered. Based mainly on results from recent studies, we illustrate these mechanisms as well as unique luminescent behaviors of o-carborane derivatives.     

NMR study of 1-aryl-1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaboranes: intramolecular C-H?O hydrogen bonding in solution

Dicarba-closo-dodecaborane(12) (carborane) has recently received much attention as a building block for supramolecular assemblies and bioactive compounds. Among carborane isomers, 1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaborane(12) (o-carborane) has unique chemical properties, including the ability of the o-carborane C-H hydrogens to form hydrogen bonds. To evaluate intramolecular hydrogen bond formation between the o-carborane C-H hydrogen and various hydrogen bond acceptors in solution, we have designed and synthesized 1-aryl-o-carboranes 2. Intramolecular hydrogen bonding ability was evaluated by means of ¹H NMR measurement of the o-carborane C-H hydrogen signal of 2. The 1-(2-methoxyphenyl)-o-carborane derivative 2m appeared to form an intramolecular hydrogen bond between o-carborane C-H hydrogen and the oxygen atom acting as a hydrogen bonding acceptor. In this study, we present evidence for hydrogen bond formation in solution between the o-carborane C-H and hydrogen bond acceptors positioned with appropriate geometry.
