运用量子化学理论计算方法结合现代光谱技术对激发态分子内质子转移(Excited state intramolecular proton transfer,ESIPT)化合物DHBIA{N,N'-di[3-hydroxy-4-(2'-benzothiazole)phenyl]5-tert-butyl-isophthalic amide}的激发态光物理行为进行了深入研究.研究表明:该化合物的醇式激发态很容易发生分子内C—N单键的快速扭转,使分子构型发生大幅扭曲,并显现出明显的扭曲的分子内电荷转移(Twisted intramolecular charge transfer,TICT)特征,激发态的这种构型弛豫导致的非辐射失活与质子转移过程相竞争,导致了激发态质子转移效率的降低以及相应酮式结构发光物种的大幅减少,从而致使化合物稀溶液的发光极为微弱.这种TICT特征也正是导致该化合物具有聚集发光增强性质的重要原因之一.

Analyzing excited-state processes and optical signatures of a ratiomeric fluorine anion sensor: a quantum look

Recently, the spectroscopic signatures of a benzoselenadiazole derivative have been investigated in the framework of designing a new ratiometric fluoride sensor(Saravanan et al., Org Lett, 2014, 16: 354–357). It was suggested that this sensor is undergoing excited-state intramolecular proton transfer. In this work, we provide a new look at these experimental data, using a state-of-the-art time-dependent density functional theory approach to mimic the spectroscopic signatures. New insights about the nature of the excited-state processes are obtained.     

Excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) from phenol OH (OD) to adjacent “aromatic” carbons in simple biphenyls

This work reports results of further studies on a new class of excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT), from phenol OH to adjacent aromatic carbon atoms of suitably designed biphenyl systems. For this purpose, a number of 2-phenylphenols 3–6 with methyl and methoxy substituents on the adjacent proton accepting phenyl ring were synthesized. In particular, we were also interested in studying the effect of an acetyl (ketone) substituent on the proton accepting ring (biphenyl 7) and the effect on the photochemistry when the ketone is reduced to alcohol (biphenyl 8). All compounds except for 7 were found to undergo deuterium exchange (Ф_ex = 0.019–0.079) primarily at the 2′-position on photolysis in 1:3 D₂O–CH₃CN. This is consistent with a reaction mechanism involving initial ESIPT from the phenol OH to the 2′-position of the adjacent phenyl ring, to generate a biphenyl quinone methide intermediate which rapidly tautomerizes back to starting material. Biphenyl 8 also undergoes a competing photosolvolysis reaction (overall loss of water). Both photosolvolysis and ESIPT reactions react via isomeric quinone methide intermediates and are best interpreted as arising from an excited singlet state that possesses a large degree of charge transfer character, from the phenol ring to the attached phenyl ring. The failure of 7 to react may be due to two possible reasons: (i) high intersystem crossing rate to a non-polarized triplet excited state and/or (ii) a polarized singlet state that is now much more basic at the carbonyl oxygen. The results are consistent with qualitative examination of calculated HOMOs and LUMOs (AM1).     

A study on multifunctional protein fibre with UV protection,moth repellency and antibacterial properties using ESIPT core containing benzimidazole and benzothiazole based functional acid azo dyes

Water soluble fluorescent acid azo dyes with benzimidazole and benzothiazole component having excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) core were synthesised by diazo coupling. The structure of the dyes were analysed and confirmed by Fourier Transform Infrared – spectroscopy (FT-IR), elemental analysis, ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR analysis. Absorption and emission characteristics of the dyes were studied in different polarity solvents shown bathochromic (red) shift as solvent polarity increases. Wool and silk fabric dyed with synthesised dyes displayed high exhaustion, uniform dyeing and good wet fastness properties. The dyed substrate showed green and purple fluorescence under UV light (366 ​nm) along with UV protection. Dyed wool fabric was also assessed for antibacterial activity by calculation of bacterial reduction Staphylococcus Auerus (Gram positive), Klebsiella Pneumonia (Gram negative) bacteria. The dyed wool were also examined for the resistivity against insect pests Anthrenus Flavipies (Le Conte) by calculation of the fabric weight loss, Mortality of moth and visible assessment of fabric attacked by moth after 14 days in given conditions. Consequently, it was demonstrated that wool fabric dyed with Benzimidazole and benzothiazole based acid dyes had various functionalities, such as UV protection, antibacterial activity and mild moth repellency.     

A CASSCF-CASPT2 study of the excited-state intramolecular proton transfer reaction in 1-amino-3-propenal using different active spaces

In this work we analyze how the choice of the active space in the CASSCF (the complete-active-space multiconfiguration self-consistent-field method) and CASPT2 (the second-order perturbation theory based on the CASSCF reference wave function) calculations affects the computed potential energy curves (PECs) for the intramolecular proton transfer reaction in the ground state and the two lowest lying singlet excited states of 1-amino-3-propenal. As anticipated, the results revealed that, qualitatively, the proton transfer in the different states can be correctly described even by minimal active spaces, which include the orbitals involved in the electronic excitation of the considered state and the antibonding sigma orbital corresponding to the bond formed by the molecule with the migrating hydrogen atom. However, quantitatively, the relative energies of the two tautomers and the energy barriers computed at the CASSCF level change when the active space is increased, indicating importance of the dynamic electron correlation. Introducing the dynamic correlation effects via CASPT2 makes the calculated energy parameters more uniform among the different active spaces. The analysis suggested certain optimal active spaces for studying proton transfer reactions in systems similar to 1-amino-3-propenal. The PEC calculations for excited states showed that the results are sensitive to the molecular geometries used in the calculations, particularly near the transition point. ©1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Multiple Hydrogen Bonds Promoted ESIPT and AIE‐active Chiral Salicylaldehyde Hydrazide

The simpler, the better! A series of simple and highly fluorescent salicylaldehyde hydrazide molecules (41 samples) have been designed and prepared. Even though these soft materials contain a very small π‐conjugated system, they can go through multiple intramolecular and intermolecular hydrogen bonds promoted excited‐state intramolecular proton‐transfer (ESIPT) to display strong blue, green, yellow, and orange aggregation‐induced emission (AIE) with large Stokes shifts (up to 184 nm) and high fluorescence quantum yields (Ф up to 0.20). Unusual mechanochromic fluorescence enhancements are also found in some solid samples. Through coordination, hydrogen and halogen bonds, these flexible molecules can be used as Mg²⁺ (Ф up to 0.46) probes, universal anion (Ф up to 0.14) and unprotected amino acids (Ф up to 0.16) probes, and chiral diamine (enantiomeric selectivity and Ф up to 0.36 and 0.062, respectively) receptors. Combining their advantages of AIE and biocompatibility, these low cytotoxic dyes have potential application in living cell imaging. Furthermore, the effects of different functional groups on the molecule arrangement, ESIPT, AIE, probe, and chiral recognition properties are also examined, which provide a simple and bright paradigm for the design of multiple‐stimuli‐responsive smart materials.
