Electrochemical Characteristics of a Triphenylamine Derivative by Microelectrode Voltammetry

With the objective of understanding the kinetic redox properties of triphenylamine derivatives in association with chemical reactions, for their future application in functional organic semiconductor devices, the electrochemical characteristics of 4‐(2,2‐diphenylethenyl)‐N,N‐bis(4‐methylphenyl)‐benzenamine (TPA) were evaluated. Based on cyclic voltammograms of TPA on Pt disk electrodes with diameters of 300 μm and 10 μm at slow and fast scan rates in an acetonitrile solution, the TPA^.+ is stable, while the TPA²⁺ is unstable. Importantly, the unstable TPA²⁺ appears to break down by a subsequent chemical reaction. A Cottrell plot analysis from chronoamperometry of a solution containing TPA reveals that both the first and second oxidations are one‐electron reactions. Concerning the stabilization mechanism of the first oxidation state of TPA, the results of molecular orbital calculations indicate that the electrons of the HOMO level are distributed in the triphenylamine group, which induces a resonance‐stabilized TPA^.+. Based on these results, TPA/TPA^.+ is suggested to have a sufficient stability for further application in organic semiconductor devices.     

Triphenylamine derivatized phenylacetylene macrocycle with large two-photon absorption cross-section

A phenylacetylene macrocycle (PAM) derivative containing triphenylamine as the framework was synthesized in one-step Sonogashira coupling. The photophysical and electrochemical properties were investigated in details. This hexamer shows significant enhancement in two-photon absorption cross-section relative to reported PAM derivatives.     

A triphenylamine based multi-analyte chemosensor for Hg and Cu ions in MeCN/H2O

A novel triphenylamine based oxidative chemosensor TOC was synthesized. The chromogenic and fluorogenic behaviors of TOC towards Hg²⁺ and Cu²⁺ ions in a binary mixture of MeCN/H₂O (9/1) were dramatically different. TOC displays colorimetric ‘naked eye’ recognition of Hg²⁺ and fluorogenic ‘turn on’ response towards Cu²⁺ via a unique cyclization reaction using two different detection modes. Moreover, TOCAZOL obtained from the oxidative cyclization reaction of TOC with Cu(ClO₄)₂ can be used as a selective fluorescent sensor toward Hg²⁺ ion.

以三苯胺为单体, 无水三氯化铁为催化剂, 二甲醇缩甲醛为外交联剂, 通过机械球磨不同比例的三苯胺、 三氯化铁和二甲醇缩甲醛, 合成了PAF-106s(PAF-106a~PAF-106c, PAF: porous aromatic framework). 红外光谱、 元素分析、 X射线光电子能谱和固体核磁共振波谱等表征结果证明发生了聚合反应. 氮气吸附结果表明, 三苯胺、 三氯化铁和二甲醇缩甲醛的比例影响PAF-106s的多孔性能. 三氯化铁和三苯胺摩尔比从3∶1增加到12∶1时, PAF-106c的BET比表面积从PAF-106a的135 m²/g增加到280 m²/g. 引入二甲醇缩甲醛后, PAF- 106d~PAF-106g的BET比表面积随三氯化铁和二甲醇缩甲醛摩尔比的增加而逐渐降低. 在273和298 K下, 测试了PAF-106c的C2烃吸附性能, 并采用理想吸附溶液理论计算了C₂H₂/C₂H₄和C₂H₆/C₂H₄分离比.     

Acid-induced tunable white light emission based on triphenylamine derivatives

A series of triphenylamine (TPA) derivatives with various substituent groups were prepared and showed different absorption and fluorescence characteristics due to the substituent effect. On account of the existence of pyridine units, these TPA derivatives exhibited acid-induced tunable multicolor fluorescence emission including white light emission. In addition, acid-induced fluorescence regulation of these compounds has been also realized in the solid state, which enable them to be successfully constructed the stimuli-responsive fluorescent films and fluorescent inks for inkjet printing.

A novel near infrared ratiometric fluorescent chemosensor based on triphenylamine, thiophene and benzothiadiazole has been developed.

Fluorenylvinylenes bridged triphenylamine-based dyes with enhanced performance in dye-sensitized solar cells

We have synthesized a series of new dipolar organic dyes Bn (n=0, 1, 2) employing triarylamine as the electron-donor, 2-cyanoacrylic acid as the electron-acceptor, and fluorenevinylene as the conjugated bridge, which were used as sensitizers in dye-sensitized solar cells. It is found that the solar-energy-to-electricity conversion efficiencies of the prepared DSSCs are in the range of 2.79-5.56%, which reach 35-70% of a standard device based on N719 fabricated and measured under the same conditions. The DSSC sensitized with B1 with balanced length of conjugated bridge shows the highest photo-to-electrical energy conversion efficiency and the open-circuit photovoltage (V_oc) of 0.86 V.
