生色团连接的苯骈三氮唑衍生物的激发态分子内质子转移

用从头算和密度泛函理论研究了对硝基二苯乙烯作为生色团连接的2-(2-羟基-苯基)-苯骈三氮唑的衍生物2-羟基-5-[对硝基-二苯乙烯基-氧亚甲基]-苯基-(2H-苯骈三氮唑)(C1)和4′-硝基-3,4-二[2-羟基-(2H-苯骈三氮唑)-苄氧基]-二苯乙烯(C2)发生激发态分子内质子转移(ESIPT)的可能性.系统研究了C1和C2发生ESIPT的互变异构体的基态与激发态的性质变化,包括相关的键长、键角等结构参数,Mulliken电荷和偶极矩,前线轨道以及势能曲线.计算结果表明,对于C1来讲,酮式(keto)的基态(K)不存在稳定结构,因此发生基态分子内质子转移(GSIPT)可能性很小.酮式的激发态(K*)的氢键强度要远强于烯醇式(enol)的激发态(E*)的氢键强度.分子在光致激发后,质子供体所带负电荷减小而质子受体所带负电荷增加.在K*,HOMO→LUMO的电子跃迁导致电子密度从"酚环"向质子化杂环转移.E*→K*跃迁只需要克服较小的能垒(约41 kJ.mol-1).计算结果表明C1发生ESIPT的可能性很大.C2由于具有高能量,其具有基态的单质子转移特征的异构体EK(同时含烯醇E与酮K结构)、具有基态的双质子转移特征的异构体2K(含有双酮结构),以及具有双酮结构特征的激发态2K*均无法获得它们的稳定结构,因此,基态分子内单或双质子转移和激发态分子内双重质子转移发生的可能性极小.然而,由于双烯醇式的激发态(2E*)和EK的激发态(EK*)存在稳定结构,且2E*→EK*跃迁具有低能垒,因此C2有可能发生激发态分子内单重质子转移.本文进一步计算了两个分子的紫外-可见吸收光谱与荧光发射光谱,获得了具有较大斯托克位移的ESIPT的荧光发射峰.

Theoretical studies of conjugation and substituent effect on intramolecular proton transfer in the ground and excited states

The ground- and excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (GSIPT and ESIPT) for 8-hydroxy-4H-naphthalen-1-one (HNA), 5-hydroxynaphthoquinone (HNQ), 1-hydroxy-anthraquione (HAQ), 7-hydroxy-1-indenone (7HIN), 5,8-dihydroxynaphthoquinone (DHNQ) and 4,9-dihydroxyperylene-3,10-quinone (DHP) are studied at B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) and TD B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level. The calculated results show that the PES of GSIPT for HNA, HNQ and HAQ exhibit a single minimum in the enol zone, while for 7-HIN, DHNQ and DHP exhibit a double minimum and a high barrier between the two minima. The barrierless ESIPT for HNA is predicted, however, the PES of ESIPT for HNQ, HAQ, 7HIN, DHNQ and DHP exhibit a high barrier in the S₁ tautomerism.     

Excited state intramolecular proton transfer in 5-hydroxy flavone: A DFT study

Potential energy surfaces (PES) for the ground and excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) processes in 5-hydroxy-flavone (5HF) were studied using DFT-B3LYP/6-31G(d) and TD-DFT/6-31G(d) level of theory, respectively. Our calculations suggest the non-viability of ground state intramolecular proton transfer (GSIPT) in 5HF. Excited states PES calculations support the existence of ESIPT process in 5HF. ESIPT in 5HF has been explained in terms of HOMO, LUMO electron density of the enol and keto tautomer of 5HF. PES scan by phenyl group rotation suggests that the twisted form, i.e., phenyl group rotated by 18.7° out of benzo-γ-pyrone ring plane is the most stable conformer of 5HF.     

DFT based computational study on the excited state intramolecular proton transfer processes in o-hydroxybenzaldehyde

Potential energy (PE) curves for the intramolecular proton transfer in the ground (GSIPT) and excited (ESIPT) states of o-hydroxybenzaldehyde (OHBA) were studied using DFT-B3LYP/6-31G(d) and TD-DFT-B3LYP/6-31G(d) level of theory, respectively. Our calculations suggest the non-viability of ground state intramolecular proton transfer in this compound. Excited states PE calculations support the ESIPT process in OHBA. The contour PE diagram and the variation of oscillator strength along the proton transfer co-ordinate support the dual emission in OHBA. Our calculations also support the experimental observations of Nagaoka et al. [S. Nagaoka, U. Nagashima, N. Ohta, M. Fujita, T. Takemura, J. Phys. Chem. 92 (1988) 166], i.e. normal emission of the title compound comes from S(2) state and the red-shifted proton transfer band appears from the S(1) state. ESIPT process has also been explained in terms of HOMO and LUMO electron density of the enol and keto tautomer of OHBA and from the potential energy surfaces.     

Theoretical study of benzotriazole UV photostability: ultrafast deactivation through coupled proton and electron transfer triggered by a charge-transfer state

A theoretical CASSCF study of the reaction path for excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) for a model system derived from the UV absorber 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl) benzotriazole without the fused benzo ring on the triazole has been carried out. A planar reaction path can be optimized but is shown to have no physical significance. The true reaction path involves twisted geometries. Adiabatic proton transfer is triggered by a charge-transfer from the phenol to the triazole group, and is followed by radiationless decay at the keto form. Along the nonplanar reaction path, there is a coupled proton and electron transfer in a manner similar to tryptophan. This rationalizes unexpected experimental results on the effect of electron withdrawing substituent groups on the photostability. The coupled proton and electron transfer is followed by a barrierless relaxation in the ground state to recover the enol form. An alternative photostabilization pathway from a phenyl localized state has also been documented and is similar to the channel 3 decay pathway in benzene photochemistry. Additionally, a long-lived intermediate for a twisted intramolecular charge-transfer (TICT) state has been identified as the species potentially responsible for the increase of blue fluorescence in strongly polar media.     

The invalidity of intermolecular proton transfer triggered twisted intramolecular charge transfer in excited state for 2-(4′-diethylamino-2′-hydroxyphenyl)-1H-imidazo-[4,5-b]pyridine

The excited-state dynamics of the excited-state proton transfer and intramolecular twisted charge transfer (TICT) reactions of a molecular photoswitch 2-(4′-diethylamino-2′-hydroxyphenyl)-1H-imidazo-[4,5-b]pyridine (DHP) in aprotic and alcoholic solvents have been theoretically investigated by using time-dependent density functional theory. The excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) reaction of DHP proceeding upon excitation in all the solvents has been confirmed, and the dual emission has been assigned to the enol and keto forms of DHP. However, for methanol and ethanol solvents within strong hydrogen-bonded capacity, the intermolecular hydrogen bonds between DHP and methanol/ethanol would promote an excited-state double proton transfer (ESDPT) along the hydrogen-bonded bridge. Importantly, the previous proposed ESDPT-triggered TICT mechanism of DHP in methanol and ethanol was not supported by our calculations. The twist motion would increase the total energy of the system for both the products of ESIPT and ESDPT. According to the calculations of the transition states, the ESDPT reaction occurs much easier in keto form generated by ESIPT. Therefore, a sequential ESIPT and ESDPT mechanism of DHP in methanol and ethanol has been reasonably proposed.     

溶剂效应和取代基效应对2-(2-氨基苯基)苯并噻唑光谱性质及激发态分子内质子转移的影响

合成了多种2-(2-氨基苯基)苯并噻唑(APBT)氨基氢原子被供电子及吸电子基团取代的衍生物, 并用紫外光谱﹑荧光光谱等方法和密度泛函理论(DFT)计算研究了溶剂效应和取代基效应对衍生物的光谱性质及激发态分子内质子转移(ESIPT)的影响规律. 结果表明, 相比于非极性溶剂环己烷, 随溶剂极性的增加及APBT-溶剂分子间氢键的形成, APBT的紫外-可见最大吸收峰和荧光最大发射峰均发生了一定程度的红移, 并对APBT的ESIPT产生了影响. 在APBT分子的氨基氮原子上引入不同的吸电子或斥电子取代基, 对氮原子的电荷性质有较大的影响. 在环己烷溶剂中, 甲基取代后的APBT仅有单重荧光发射峰, 体系未发生ESIPT过程; 而COCH₂Cl等吸电子基团能促进APBT的ESIPT, 其荧光发射光谱出现了明显的双重峰, 表明体系发生了激发态分子内质子转移反应. 量子化学的理论计算较好地验证了光谱实验结果.     

Femtosecond dynamics on 2-(2'-hydroxy-4'-diethylaminophenyl)benzothiazole: solvent polarity in the excited-state proton transfer.

Detailed insights into the excited-state enol(N*)-keto(T*) intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) reaction in 2-(2'-hydroxy-4'-diethylaminophenyl)benzothiazole (HABT) have been investigated via steady-state and femtosecond fluorescence upconversion approaches. In cyclohexane, in contrast to the ultrafast rate of ESIPT for the parent 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl)benzothiazole (>2.9+/-0.3 x 10(13) s(-1)), HABT undergoes a relatively slow rate (approximately 5.4+/-0.5 x 10(11) s(-1)) of ESIPT. In polar aprotic solvents competitive rate of proton transfer and rate of solvent relaxation were resolved in the early dynamics. After reaching the solvation equilibrium in the normal excited state (N(eq)*), ESIPT takes place with an appreciable barrier. The results also show N(eq)*(enol)<-->T(eq)*(keto) equilibrium, which shifts toward N(eq)* as the solvent polarity increases. Temperature-dependent relaxation dynamics further resolved a solvent-induced barrier of 2.12 kcal mol(-1) for the forward reaction in CH(2)Cl(2). The observed spectroscopy and dynamics are rationalized by a significant difference in dipole moment between N(eq)* and T(eq)*, while the dipolar vector for the enol form in the ground state (N) is in between that of N(eq)* and T(eq)*. Upon N-->N* Franck-Condon excitation, ESIPT is energetically favorable, and its rate is competitive with the solvation relaxation process. Upon reaching equilibrium configurations N(eq)* and T(eq)*, forward and/or backward ESIPT takes place with an appreciable solvent polarity induced barrier due to differences in polarization equilibrium between N(eq)* and T(eq)*.
