Photophysical processes of a copolymer containing 1,1'-binaphthyl-2,2'-diamino and carbazolyl units

The photophysical processes of copolymer formed by copolymerization of 2,2'-dimethacrylamido-1,1'-binaphthyl (DMBN) with vinylcarbazole (VCZ) have been carefully studied. The results show that when the solution of copolymer (DMBN-VCZ) in THF located in low concentration range (< 10(-3) mg/ml), the fluorescence emission is in good agreement with that of DMBN monomer and the excimer is formed with gradual increase in concentration of copolymer (DMBN-VCZ). The fluorescence of copolymer (DMBN-VCZ) can be quenched both by electron donors and acceptors where the quenching effects follow the Stern-Volmer equation. The dimolecular exciplex between copolymer (DMBN-VCZ) and N,N-dimethylaniline (DMA) are formed and the triple exciplexes are also observed in the same system.     

Exciplex formation in aromatic copolymers and photoinduced electron transfer from exciplex to acceptor

The exciplex formation in 9-vinylphenanthrene-p-N,N-dimethylaminostyrene copolymers, its characteristics, and the electron transfer process in polar solvents were studied. The copolymer exhibited a more intense intramolecular exciplex fluorescence than the low-molecular-weight model system, phenanthrene-N,N-dimethylaniline, in which the intermolecular exciplex formation occurred. Intensities of the exciplex fluorescence, which were unchanged regardless of the copolymer composition, led us to speculate that the efficient energy migration takes place from an excited phenanthrene unit to an exciplex forming site on the polymer chain. The electron transfer in the copolymer-p-dicyanobenzene system was studied in polar media. The formation of p-dicyanobenzene anion radical was measured by flash photolysis and electron spin resonance (ESR). p-Dicyanobenzene anion radical was generated by the electron transfer process via exciplex and the direct electron transfer process from the excited phenanthrene unit in the copolymer.

Donor-acceptor complexes of excited states on silica surface and in hexane solution at liquid nitrogen temperature

It is shown that an exciplex between pyrene (Py) and N,N-dimethylaniline (DMA) forms at low temperature (77 K) on the nonporous silica surface and in a solid hexane solution. The fluorescence lifetime of pyrene in the adsorption state increases when the quencher concentration grows at 77 K. The exciplex fluorescence spectra in the adsorption state shifts to a blue wavelength range when the temperature decreases as a result of the dipole-dipole interaction of the exciplex with the hydroxy groups of the silica surface. On the basis of the model suggested the hydroxyl group concentration on the dehydrated at 770 K silica surface has been estimated.     

Photophysical processes of 1,3-dicarbazolypropane

The photophysical processes of 1,3-dicarbazolypropane (DCZP), which possesses two fluorogen, carbazoly, and one carbonic chain composed of three carbon atoms, were studied. The formation of intermolecular excimer, intramolecular excimer and triple exciplexes have been investigated in the system of DCZP and 1,4-dinitrilebenzene (DNB) with steady state fluorescence spectroscopy. The experimental results show that with the addition of DNB into the lower concentration solution of DCZP in benzene, the fluorescence of intramolecular excimer of DCZP, (D-D)*, is quenched while the ((D-D)A)* type triple exciplex (one molecule of DCZP with one molecule of DNB) is formed and with the addition of DNB into higher concentration solution of DCZP, the formation of (DDA)* type triple exciplex (two molecules of DCZP with one molecule of DNB) is also confirmed.     

EXCIPLEX FORMATION INFLUENCED BY ISOMERS——EXCIPLEX FORMED FROM DIMETHYL TEREPHTHALATE AND PHTHALATE WITH 9-ETHYL CARBAZOLE

Both dimethyl terephthalate (DMTP) and dimethyl phthalate are able to form exciplex with 9-ethyl carbazole (EtCz) but the fluorescence quenching constant of DMTP to EtCz is larger than that of DMP to EtCz. The peak positions of the fluorescence bands of the exciplex formed from DMTP and DMP with EtCz are also different. The former gives a peak at shorter wavelength region. Either the exciplex formation rate constant k_3 or the exciplex dissociation rate constant k_4 is not alike. Both of these constants of DMTP are larger than those of DMP. All these results are difficult to explain with the established theory, so a new model which could be used to explain the results satisfactorily is supposed.     

Magnetic field effect on fluorescence in a mixture of N-ethylcarbazole and dimethyl terephthalate in a polymer film in the presence of electric fields

Magnetic field effects on the fluorescence spectrum and on the electrofluorescence spectrum (plots of the electric field-induced change in fluorescence intensity as a function of wavelength) have been examined in electron donor and acceptor pairs of N-ethylcarbazole (ECZ) and dimethyl terephthalate (DMTP) in polymer films at different ratios of donor/acceptor concentration. In the mixture having a high concentration of ECZ, electric field-induced quenching of the exciplex fluorescence originating from the photoinduced electron transfer becomes less efficient in the presence of a magnetic field. In the mixture having a low concentration of ECZ, on the other hand, no magnetic field effect was observed in the electrofluorescence spectrum, indicating that the hole carrier plays an important role in synergy effects of magnetic and electric field effects on exciplex fluorescence. In the absence of the applied electric field, the magnetic field does not affect either exciplex fluorescence with a peak at 450 nm or LE fluorescence emitted from the locally excited state of ECZ but enhances the broad emission with a peak at approximately 380 nm, probably assigned to the fluorescence of another type of exciplex between ECZ and DMTP. Thus, two kinds of magnetic field effects on fluorescence have been observed in a mixture of ECZ and DMTP in a polymer film.     

Magnetic field effect in fluorescence of excited fluorophore equilibrated with exciplex that reversibly dissociates into radical-ion pair undergoing the spin conversion

The fluorescence of the photoexcited electron acceptor, (1)A?, and the exciplex, (1)[D(+δ)A(-δ)] formed at contact of (1)A? with an electron donor (1)D, is known to be very sensitive to a magnetic field, assisting the spin conversion in the resulting geminate radical ion pair (RIP), (1, 3)[D(+)...A(-)]. The relative increase of the fluorescence in the highest magnetic field compared to the lowest one, known as the magnetic field effect, crucially depends on the dielectric constant of the solvent, ?. This phenomenon first studied experimentally is at first reproduced here theoretically by means of the so called integral encounter theory. It was shown to be very sensitive to the position of the exciplex energy level relative to the levels of exciplex precursors and the charged products of its dissociation. The results obtained strongly depend on the dielectric properties of the solvents as well as on the exciplex and RIP formation rates.

EXCIPLEX FORMATION OF A POLYESTER WITH A TEREPHTHALATE MAIN CHAIN HAVING A PENDANT N, N-DIMETHYLAMINO GROUP

The fluorescence behaviours of a new polymer poly [oxy-2 (4-N, N-dimethylaminobenzyl) propane-1 , 3-diyloxy-terephthaloyl] (Ⅰ) in solution were studied. Inter-and intra -molecular exciplex is formed between the singlet excited state of N, N- dimethylanilino group (abbreviated to DMA) and the ground state of terephthalate group (abbreviated to TP). The intensity ratio of the long wavelength exciplex fluorescence to the short wavelength emission of DMA group is used as an index for the inter-and intra-molecular interaction of chromophores. The results are compared with model polymer polyoxy-2-(4-N ,N-dimethylaminobenzyl) propanc-1 , 3-diyloxyadipoyl (Ⅱ), model monomer compound 4-N, N-dimethylaminobenzylmethyl terephthalate(Ⅲ) and diethyl 2-( 4-N, N-dimethylaminobenzyl) malonate (Ⅳ). Polymer association derived by electron donor and acceptor interaction (EDA) is further verified as a key role in the interpolymer exciplex formation . The fluorescence decay time of (Ⅰ) and monomer (Ⅲ) are measured in solutions.     

Detection of nucleic acids in situ: novel oligonucleotide analogues for target-assembled DNA-mounted exciplexes

This research describes the effects of structural variation and medium effects for the novel split-oligonucleotide (tandem) probe systems for exciplex-based fluorescence detection of DNA. In this approach the detection system is split at a molecular level into signal-silent components, which must be assembled correctly into a specific 3-dimensional structure to ensure close proximity of the exciplex partners and the consequent exciplex fluorescence emission on excitation. The model system consists of two 8-mer oligonucleotides, complementary to adjacent sites of a 16-mer DNA target. Each probe oligonucleotide is equipped with functions able to form an exciplex on correct, contiguous hybridization. This study investigates the influence of a number of structural aspects (i.e. chemical structure and composition of exciplex partners, length and structure of linker groups, locations of exciplex partner attachment, as well as effects of media) on the performance of DNA-mounted exciplex systems. The extremely rigorous structural demands for exciplex formation and emission required careful structural design of linkers and partners for exciplex formation, which are here described. Certain organic solvents (especially trifluoroethanol) specifically favour emission of the DNA-mounted exciplexes, probably the net result of the particular duplex structure and specific solvation of the exciplex partners. The exciplexes formed emitted at approximately 480 nm with large Stokes shifts ( approximately 130-140 nm). Comparative studies with pyrene excimer systems were also carried out.     

Formation of Exciplexes in Films of Polyimides,Polyamides, and Polyquinazolones Derived from Aromatic and Heteroaromatic Diamines

The emission bands exchibited by films of polyimides derived from 1,3-bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenoxy)benzene dianhydride, hexafluoroisopropylidenedibenzene-3,3′,4,4′-tetracarboxylic dianhydride, and aromatic and heteroaromatic diamines, and also of polyamides and polyquinazolones derived from the same amines are exciplex bahnds. With polyamides, complexes in the ground state are formed. The fluorescence of the photoconductivity sensitizer Rhodamine 6G is quenched in films of these polymers by the exciplex mechanism.

Spectroscopy,photophysics and photochemistry of 1,3-diketoboronates VI: The exciplexes of 2-naphthyl-substituted 1,3-diketoboronates

The fluorescence quenching of 2-naphthyl-substituted 1,3-diketoboronates (2-NDKB) by naphthalene in heptane is accompanied by exciplex emission. The exciplex formation occurs irreversibly because of the high electron affinity of 2-NDKB. In one case the exciplex fluorescence decay reveals the existence of ground state rotamers.

QUENCHING OF INTRAMOLECULAR AMINE-HYDROCARBON EXCIPLEX FLUORESCENCE BY WATER

Abstract— The quenching of intramolecular exciplex fluorescence in 2,6-bis(methylamino)naphtha]ene, (II), 2,6-bis(/V-methyl, methylamino)naphthalene, (III) and 2,6-bis(N-dimethy], methylamino)naphthalene, (IV) by water was investigated. Exciplex fluorescence intensity decreased continuously with increase in water concentration; while monomer fluorescence intensity remained constant up to 25% of water, followed by a rapid increase in intensity.
Absorption spectra showed that specific interaction occurred between water and ground state amine molecules at high concentrations (25% by volume) of water. These observations were interpreted in terms of a static quenching involving the interaction of water with the ground-state amine and a dynamic quenching involving the interactions of water with the exciplex. Our observations explain the greater efficiency of exciplex-fluorescence quenching by protic polar solvents.     

Copolymer Formation Between Two N‐Substituted Anilines—Electrochemical and Spectroelectrochemical Studies

Abstract

Electrochemical polymerization of diphenylamine, DPA with N‐methyl aniline, NMA was performed using cyclic voltammetry in a 4?M sulfuric acid medium. The electrochemical parameters representing the polymer deposition showed a strong dependence on the molar concentration ratios of DPA or NMA in the feed. In situ spectroelectrochemical studies were performed during the electropolymerization with different molar concentration feed ratios of DPA. The results reveal the formation of intermediates together with DPA and NMA units. Derivative cyclic voltabsorptograms (DCVAs) were deduced at the wavelength of absorbance corresponding to the intermediates and explained with redox characteristics in cyclic voltammogram. Results from cyclic voltammetry and spectroelectrochemical studies favor copolymer formation between DPA and NMA. Copolymers were prepared for different molar concentrations feed ratios of DPA and the composition of the monomer units in the copolymers were determined. Reactivity ratios of DPA and NMA were deduced using Fineman–Ross and Kelen–Tudos methods and correlated with the results from cyclic voltammetry and spectroelectrochemical studies.
