基于供体调节的含硼热活化延迟蓝色荧光材料的理论研究

基于含硼热活化延迟荧光化合物p-AC-DBNA (a),通过在供体吖啶部分添加两个氮原子,设计了一系列新的热活化延迟荧光分子b1∽b4. 使用密度泛函理论和含时密度泛函理论计算了化合物a和b1∽b4的前线轨道能级、发射光谱、单重态-三重态能隙、反向系间窜越速率常数. 计算结果表明,与分子a相比,新设计分子的最大发射波长显著蓝移了47∽125 nm. 其中,b1和b3分子发射深蓝色荧光,而b2和b4分子发射浅蓝色荧光. 此外,发现了a、b2和b4分子中的反向系间窜越过程不仅可以通过从T₁态到S₁态的跃迁来实现,而且也可能通过从T₂态到S₁态的跃迁来实现. b1和b3分子中的反向系间窜越过程主要通过T₂→S₁过程的热激子方式发生. 重要的是,计算得到的b2和b4分子中T₁→S₁的反向系间窜越速率常数值是a分子的两到三倍,这表明b2和b4分子热活化延迟荧光性能更显著. 研究结果不仅提供了两种有前景的硼基热活化延迟荧光候选化合物(b2和b4),而且为蓝色OLED材料的设计提供了理论依据.

黄芩素激发态分子内质子转移耦合电荷转移反应的实验和理论研究

通过稳态光谱实验和量子化学计算相结合,研究了黄芩素激发态质子转移耦合电荷转移的反应. 实验和计算中S₁态吸收峰的缺失表明S₁态是暗态. S₁暗态导致在实验中观察不到黄芩素在乙醇溶液中的荧光峰,且固体的荧光峰很弱. 黄芩素分子的前线分子轨道和电荷差异密度表明S₁态是电荷转移态,然而S₂态是局域激发态. 计算的黄芩素分子的势能曲线在激发态只有一个稳定点,这表明了黄芩素激发态分子内质子转移的过程是一个无

在ADC(2)水平上通过从头算非绝热动力学方法模拟硝酸甲酯的光解

在ADC(2)水平上通过轨线面跳跃方法模拟了硝酸甲酯的非绝热动力学. 结果证实该体系存在快速的非绝热动力学过程,导致了体系回到电子基态. 当动力学从S₁和S₂电子态开始时,光解产物是CH₃O+NO₂,这个发现与实验研究的结果以及更高精度的XMS-CASPT2水平上模拟出的结果一致. 在ADC(2)水平上,当动力学从S₃态开始时,光解产物依然是CH₃O+NO₂. 该研究表明：ADC(2)方法可用于研究硝酸甲酯在长波下的光解机理,然而无法用于理解其在短波段下的光解动力学. 本文为在ADC(2)水平上处理类似化合物的光诱导过程提供了有价值的信息.     

4-硝基联苯酚三重态质子化和去质子化过程中瞬态物种的指认

近年利用超快光谱技术对于4-硝基联苯酚(HO-Bp-NO₂)的研究发现，其在单重态和三重态时均会发生光致质子耦合电子转移(PCET)反应. 其瞬态吸收光谱450 nm处有一个独特的尖锐吸收带，但无羟基取代的对硝基联苯(Bp-NO₂)未观察到此现象. 本文利用酸性溶液作为外加可控质子供体，通过在强酸(∽10^-1 mol/L)和弱酸(∽10^-4 mol/L)溶液中的光谱和动力学结果，指认这个新吸收带为开壳层单重态O-Bp-NO₂H. 它是HO-Bp-NO₂的互变异构体，由三重态HO-Bp-NO₂中硝基氧得质子后羟基快速去质子产生. 动力学分析表明，非质子极性溶剂中三重态HO-Bp-NO₂与基态母体间还会发生PCET或先质子后电子转移生成自由基·O-Bp-NO₂. 这一反应与O-Bp-NO₂H竞争，导致其产率较低. 这些结果阐明了三重态HO-Bp-NO₂在非质子极性溶剂中的失活机制.

Transient absorption spectroscopy of a monofullerene C<Subscript>60</Subscript>-bis-(pyropheophorbide <Emphasis Type="Italic">a</Emphasis>) molecular system in polar and nonpolar environments

The population dynamics of the excited and ground states of the monofullerene-bis (pyropheophorbide a) complex (FP1) were studied in polar (DMF) and nonpolar (toluene) solvents using picosecond transient absorption techniques. A strong quenching of the fluorescence signal of FP1 was observed in both solvents, in comparison to the fluorescence of bis (pyropheophorbide a) (P2). This quenching is due to an intramolecular photoinduced electron transfer from the pyropheophorbide a (pyroPheo) moiety to the fullerene C₆₀ monoadduct. In DMF the charge-separated (CS) state of FP1 has a lifetime of 0.32 ns and undergoes a direct transition to the ground state, resulting in a very low value of photosensitised singlet oxygen generation. In toluene, energy transfer from the first excited triplet state of pyroPheo, which has been populated via relaxation of the CS state, generates a considerable amount of singlet oxygen. The lifetime of the CS state in the nonpolar solvent was estimated to be 0.29 ns. It was also shown that in both DMF and toluene the first excited singlet state as well as the triplet state of the fullerene moiety in FP1 are not occupied.

Singlet and Triplet State Properties and Singlet Oxygen Yield of an Amino-Acyl-Quinoxalinone Yellow Dye

Amino-acyl-quinoxalinone yellow dyes are cyclised analogues of the yellow azomethine dyes developed for, and still used in, silver halide colour photography. Unlike image azomethine dyes, which are rapidly deactivated in their excited states by torsion about the azomethine bond, amino-acyl-quinoxalinone dyes have an interesting photophysics because torsion is not possible due to their cyclised structure. We report results from studies on singlet and triplet state properties, and singlet oxygen yields, of the yellow dye, 7-diethylamino-3-(2,2-dimethyl-propionyl)-5-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-quinoxalin-2-one, in polar and nonpolar solvents. The dye photophysics is characterised by a weak fluorescence, with a solvent dependent emission yield (Φ_F?≈?0.002–0.004), and short singlet state lifetime (τ_expt?≈?20–50 ps), both increasing by a factor of ≈2 in going from polar acetonitrile to non-polar dioxane as solvent. DFT ZINDO calculations show a transition involving significant electron transfer from the diethyl-amino group into the carbonyl region of the molecule. In solution, in the presence of oxygen, the triplet state decays almost exclusively by oxygen quenching, and singlet oxygen is produced in high yield (Φ_??≈?0.5–0.55). The triplet state absorbs across the 450–750 nm region with maxima around 480 and 650 nm, and moderate molar absorption coefficients (ca. 6000–8000 M^?1 cm^?1). In a glass at 77 K, triplet decay gives a red phosphorescence, with λ_max?≈?640–650 nm, and a ?≈?0.25 s lifetime. If singlet oxygen yields are a good indication of triplet yields, then internal conversion and intersystem crossing occur with roughly equal efficiency.

     

Solvent Effects on the Spectroscopic Properties of Styrylquinolinium Dyes Series

The study on the relationship between the structure and spectroscopic properties of styrylquinolinium dyes were carried out by measuring the electronic visible absorption, steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence spectra of quinoline based hemicyanine dyes. The influence of the solvent on absorption and emission spectra and the solvatochromic properties, observed for both ground and first excited states, for all the dyes were applied for the evaluation of their excited state dipole moments. The ground state dipole moments of dyes under the study were established by applying ab initio calculations. The measured, using solvatochromic methods, excited state dipole moments of tested hemicyanines are in the range from 5.38 to 18.90 D and the change in the dipole moments caused by excitation were found to differ from 1.88 to 6.64 D. It was observed that for all tested dyes the dipole moments of the excited states were higher than those of a ground states. The fluorescence lifetime measurements with picosecond resolution was performed for entire series of hemicyanine dyes possessing different dialkylamino groups attached to the phenyl ring. The average lifetimes of the dye fluorescence, determined from the measured data by multi-order exponential decay curve fitting, were in the range from about 120 to 1200 ps at the fluorescence peak wavelength. The fluorescence lifetime measurements were performed for dyes in ethyl acetate solutions. The time-resolved fluorescence spectra measurements allowed to propose the mechanism of the dyes excited states deactivation.     

B-type delayed fluorescence of rubreneperoxide in solution.

B-type of delayed fluorescence was observed for the first time for rubreneperoxide. Rubreneperoxide molecules were excited in a two step process. In the first step an excited singlet S₁ is created, which undergoes intersystem crossing to T₁; then T-T absorption creates an excited triplet rubreneperoxide molecule, which returns to the first excited singlet level by intersystem crossing. The recreated first excited singlet of rubreneperoxide decays back to the ground state by emitting B-type of delayed fluorescence.     

Fluorescence quenching in laser dyes by absorption from an excited singlet state

The effects of absorption of pump radiation from the first excited singlet state on the fluorescence quantum yield are calculated by numerical solution of simple rate equations, and compared with experiments performed earlier for the dye 7-diethylamino-4-methyl-coumarin at N₂-laser pumping. Analytical solutions for high and low pump intensities are found for the case of an optically thin solution.     

Vibronic Structures of the Ground and Excited Singlet Electronic States of Dimethylnaphthalenes Cooled in a Supersonic Jet

Abstract

Fluorescence excitation and dispersed fluorescence spectra of jet-cooled naphthalene and 2,6-, 2,7-dimethylnaphthalenes have been measured. The frequencies of optical active vibrations in the ground and first excited singlet states have been determined. The new technique for calculation of planar vibration frequencies of polycyclic benzenoid hydrocarbons in the excited electronic states has been developed. The vibration frequencies in the ground and first excited singlet states of these molecules were calculated using the developed technique and the Ohno's model. The interpretation of vibronic spectral lines based on the comparison of the calculated and experimental data was made. The calculation rms errors for the vibration frequencies in the ground electronic states of the investigated molecules do not exceed 20 cm^?1 and are approximately 1.5 times higher for excited states without additional adjustment of parameters for individual molecules.     

Time-resolved study of intramolecular charge transfer fluorescence in 1,2,3,4-tetrachloro-11H-isoindolo-[2, 1-a]-benzimidazol-11-one

Fluorescent properties of 1,2,3,4-tetrachloro-11H-isoindolo-[2,1-a]-benzimidazol-11-one (TCIB) in various organic solutions are described. Detailed investigation of the fluorescence from the solutions revealed that it was ascribable to the electronic transition from the lowest singlet excited state of an isolated molecule to its ground state, though the fluorescence spectrum was broad and structureless and the Stokes’ shift was about 1 eV. The absorption peak of TCIB was relatively insensitive to change in solvent polarity, whereas its fluorescence peak shifted to the red with an increase in the polarity. This finding suggests that the dipole moment of the molecule in the ground state is almost zero, and that the excited state has a non-zero dipole moment, which coincides with the predicted semiempirical molecular orbital calculation. Fluorescence quantum efficiency decreased with increase of solvent polarity. The efficiency was reduced by a factor of 39 in going from n-hexane solution to acetonitrile solution. The radiative rate constant also decreased with increase of solvent polarity. However, its reduction was very moderate; the reduction factor was only 2.5 for acetonitrile solution as compared with n-hexane solution. This finding indicates that the emitting state of the title compound is influenced by a solvent-dependent non-radiative mechanism, for which solvent-sensitive intersystem-crossing deactivation is tentatively proposed.
