含非典型性生色团的发光聚合物

发光聚合物一般是由具有大p电子系统的共轭基元作为发光单元, 通过共价键连接而成的高分子. 近年来, 研究者发现: 另一类仅含有脂肪胺、羰基、酯基、酰胺等传统意义上的助色团的聚合物在适当条件下也能发射强的荧光. 树枝状聚酰胺胺(PAMAM)和超支化聚酰胺胺(hb-PAMAM)是最早和最广泛被研究的含非典型性荧光生色团的聚合物. 最近, 这类聚合物被扩展到含有叔胺基元的聚氨酯、聚醚酰胺、聚脲体系. 这些体系的生色团被认定为其结构中的叔胺基元, 叔胺的氧化是荧光产生的根源. 同时, 也有文献报道马来酸酐与醋酸乙烯酯交替共聚物、异丁烯与顺丁烯二酸酐共聚物、聚多糖动态高分子、聚酰腙以及通过RAFT试剂制备的含聚三硫碳酸酯的多嵌段共聚物等也可以发射荧光. 这些聚合物的一个共同特点是结构中不含叔胺基元, 而仅含羰基和酯基, 其发光机理通常用多个羰基聚集效应或羰基和苯环之间的相互作用来解释.     

Long-Lived Photocharges in Supramolecular Polymers of Low-Band-Gap Chromophores

Photoinduced charge separation in supramolecular aggregates of π-conjugated molecules is a fundamental photophysical process and a key criterion for the development of advanced organic electronics materials. Herein, the self-assembly of low-band-gap chromophores into helical one-dimensional aggregates, due to intermolecular hydrogen bonding, is reported. Chromophores confined in these supramolecular polymers show strong excitonic coupling interactions and give rise to charge-separated states with unusually long lifetimes of several hours and charge densities of up to 5 mol % after illumination with white light. Two-contact devices exhibit increased photoconductivity and can even show Ohmic behavior. These findings demonstrate that the confinement of organic semiconductors into one-dimensional aggregates results in a considerable stabilization of charge carriers for a variety of π-conjugated systems, which may have implications for the design of future organic electronic materials.     

Ionic Liquid Crystals with Hemicyanine Chromophores

(E)-N-alkyl-4-(2-(4-dimethylaminophenyl)ethenyl) pyridinium bromides (hemicyanine bromides) with C₁₄, C₁₆ and C₁₈ straight alkyl chains are described. The thermal behaviour of these compounds was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and by optical microscopy. The textures observed in polarised light revealed that these compounds exhibit a smectic A mesophase. A focal-conic fan texture was observed, together with regions showing homeotropic alignment. The phase behaviour of the compound with the C₁₆ chain can be summarized as: Cr₁·99·Cr₂·249·SmA·268·I (dec.). The transition temperatures are rather independent of the length of the alkyl chain. The compounds have a strong tendency to supercool to a glassy mesophase. A structural model for the mesophase is proposed. The bromide anion of the hemicyanine bromides can be replaced by the bulky tetrakis(-diketonato)lanthanide(III) anion. As the -diketone, 2,4-pentanedione (acetylacetone, acac) and 1,3-diphenyl-1,3-propanedione (dibenzoylmethane, DBM) are chosen. None of the lanthanide complexes containing the hemicyanine chromophore shows a mesophase. The complexes either melt directly to an isotropic liquid, or decompose without melting.

Photoswitchable Tetraethynylethene‐Dihydroazulene Chromophores

The synthesis, characterization, and photophysical as well as electrochemical properties of the photochromic hybrid systems 11 – 16 and 18 , which contain photoswitchable tetraethynylethene (TEE; 3,4‐diethynylhex‐3‐ene‐1,5‐diyne) and dihydroazulene (DHA) moieties, are presented. The molecular photoswitches were synthesized by a Sonogashira cross‐coupling reaction between an appropriate TEE precursor ( 6 – 10 and 17 ) and an iodinated DHA 1 or its vinylheptafulvene (VHF) isomer ( 4 ) (Schemes 5 – 7). X‐Ray crystal structures of five DHA derivatives ( 1 , trans‐ 11a , cis‐ 11a , 12 , and 13 ) are discussed (Figs. 2 – 5). In all compounds, the cyclohexatriene moiety of the DHA chromophore adopts a clear boat conformation (Table 1). Presumably due to crystal‐packing effects, the arylated TEE moieties in the hybrid systems show substantial distortions from planarity, with the dihedral angles between the planes of the central TEE core and the adjacent aryl substituents amounting to 44°. The switching properties were investigated by electronic absorption spectroscopy. Upon light absorption, DHAs 1 , 12 – 16 , and 18 underwent retro‐electrocyclization in solution to give the corresponding VHFs (Figs. 6, 11, and 12). The reaction is thermally reversible, with half‐lives τ_1/2 between 3.9 and 5.8 h at 25° in CH₂Cl₂ (Figs. 7 and 13 and Table 3). A comparatively slower (E)→(Z) isomerization process about the central C=C bond of the TEE moiety was also observed. The N,N‐dimethylanilino‐(DMA) substituted TEE‐DHA hybrid systems trans‐ 11a and cis‐ 11a did not react to the corresponding VHFs upon irradiation (Scheme 9). Instead, only the reversible (E)→(Z) photoisomerization of the TEE core occurred (Fig. 16 and Table 4). This process was further investigated for photofatigue by electronic‐emission spectroscopy (Fig. 17). After protonation of the DMA group, the usual DHA→VHF photoreaction took place. Compound 11 represents a three‐way chromophoric molecular switch with three addressable sub‐units (TEE core, DHA/VHF moiety, and proton sensitive DMA group) that can undergo individual, reversible switching cycles (Scheme 9). A process modeling the function of an `AND' logic gate (Fig. 19) and three write/erase processes could be performed with this system. Cyclic and linear sweep‐voltammetry studies in CH₂Cl₂ (+Bu₄NPF₆) revealed the occurrence of characteristic first‐reduction steps in the TEE‐DHA hybrid systems between −1.6 and −1.8 V vs. Fc/Fc⁺ (ferrocene/ferricinium couple) (Table 5). Oxidations occur at ca. +1.10 V. After photoisomerization to the VHF derivatives, reduction steps at more positive and oxidation steps at more negative potentials were recorded. No DHA→VHF isomerization took place upon electrochemical oxidation or reduction (Fig. 20).     

Isolation and Identification of Residual Chromophores in Cellulosic Materials

A general procedure was developed for the isolation of residual chromophores in or on cellulosic material, which were hitherto inaccessible to structure elucidation due to their extremely low content in the ppb concentration scale. It is applicable to cellulosic pulp, cellulosic fibers (viscose, Lyocell) and cellulose derivatives (acetate, carbonyl-labeled cellulose) as well. The chromophore identification comprises treatment of the cellulosic material with boron trifluoride – acetic acid complex (BF₃*2HOAc) containing sulfite, chromatographic separation of the resulting chromophore-containing mixture, and structure determination of the main constituents by NMR / MS and comparison to authentic samples. Both adsorbed and covalently bound aromatic and quinoid compounds are selectively released by the treatment. Covalent ester, ether and secondary alkyl links between chromophore and cellulose are broken. Two cellulosic example substrates have been analyzed for their chromophore content: Lyocell fibers and non-bleached viscose fibers, and up to eleven chromophores per sample have been identified.

Synthesis and Surface Behaviour of NDI Chromophores Mounted on a Tripodal Scaffold: Towards Self-Decoupled Chromophores for Single-Molecule Electroluminescence

This paper reports the efficient synthesis, absorption and emission spectra, and the electrochemical properties of a series of 2,6-disubstituted naphthalene-1,4,5,8-tetracarboxdiimide (NDI) tripodal molecules with thioacetate anchors for their surface investigations. Our studies showed that, in particular, the pyrrolidinyl group with its strong electron-donating properties enhanced the fluorescence of such core-substituted NDI chromophores and caused a significant bathochromic shift in the absorption spectrum with a correspondingly narrowed bandgap of 1.94 eV. Cyclic voltammetry showed the redox properties of NDIs to be influenced by core substituents. The strong electron-donating character of pyrrolidine substituents results in rather high HOMO and LUMO levels of -5.31 and -3.37 eV when compared with the parental unsubstituted NDI. UHV-STM measurements of a sub-monolayer of the rigid tripodal NDI chromophores spray deposited on Au(111) show that these molecules mainly tend to adsorb flat in a pairwise fashion on the surface and form unordered films. However, the STML experiments also revealed a few molecular clusters, which might consist of upright oriented molecules protruding from the molecular island and show electroluminescence photon spectra with high electroluminescence yields of up to 6×10⁻³. These results demonstrate the promising potential of the NDI tripodal chromophores for the fabrication of molecular devices profiting from optical features of the molecular layer.

Janus-Type ESIPT Chromophores with Distinctive Intramolecular Hydrogen-bonding Selectivity

Excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT)-based solid luminescent materials with multiple hydrogen bond acceptors (HBAs) remain unexplored. Herein, we introduced a family of Janus-type ESIPT chromophores featuring distinctive hydrogen bond (H-bond) selectivity between competitive HBAs in a single molecule. Our investigations showed that the central hydroxyl group preferentially forms intramolecular H-bonds with imines in imine-modified 2-hydroxyphenyl benzothiazole (HBT) chromophores but tethers the benzothiazole moiety in hydrazone-modified HBT chromophores. Imine-derived HBTs generally exhibit higher fluorescence efficiency, while hydrazone-derived HBTs show a reduced overlap between the absorption and fluorescence bands. Quantum chemical calculations unveiled the molecular origins of the biased intramolecular H-bonds and their impact on the ESIPT process. This Janus-type ESIPT chromophore skeleton provides new opportunities for the design of solid luminescent materials.

Synthesis and Characterization of Dipolar Two-Photon Absorption Chromophores

It is a new interest to explore novel organic two-photon absorption (TPA) chromophores with large TPA cross section for their potential applications in various fields, such as three-dimensional optical data storage, micro- and nano-fabrication, biological imaging and optical limiting, and so on. As far as asymmetrical D-π-A type chromophores were concerned, larger TPA cross section can be obtained with the enhancement of electron-donation/electron-acception ability.[1] Recently, we have synthesized a series of new D-π-A type compounds. In these chromophores, stilbene or phenyl cyclo-bridged hexatriene is served as π-bridge, which terminated with a number of amino groups and dicyanomethylene unit (Scheme 1). All the chromophores can be obtained by the condensation reaction of aldehydes and active methyl or methenyl groups in good yields (72%～81%). The chromophores have been characterized by 1H NMR,IR, UV-vis, PL and EA. All these five chromophores in dilute solutions show strong red fluorescence (Table 1). The studies on the TPA properties are in progress.

Entrapping of Push-Pull Zwitterionic Chromophores in Hybrid Matrices for Photonic Applications

A new class of heterocycle-based push-pull chromophores showing enhanced nonlinear properties characterized by an aromatic and highly zwitterionic ground state and a quinoid/neutral excited state have been synthesized to be incorporated in sol-gel hybrid systems. This class of compounds shows very large first molecular hyperpolarizabilities ( as high as 27000 × 10^–48 esu) and is a promising candidate for photonic applications where large second order non-linearities are required. In spite of their very large hyperpolarizability and chemical and thermal stability, these chromophores are decomposed in presence of light and oxygen (photobleaching) and are sensitive to acidic environments due to the carbanionic nature of the donor moiety. A hybrid matrix, based on N-[(3-trimethoxysilyl)propyl]ethylenediamine and 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane, has been specifically designed to allow the incorporation of such zwitterionic compounds assuring at the same time a good temporal stability of the optical properties. Amine functionalisation has been found very effective in reducing the photobleaching by acting on these chromophores via the singlet oxygen. Second harmonic generation has been observed on poled films, and an order parameter, , of 0.17 has been estimated. The nonlinear coefficient d_eff of the samples has been thus estimated at a value two times larger than for d₁₁ of quartz that, from literature data, is about 0.335 pm/V.
