The composite material of perylene bisimide dye in MCM-41 and its photophysical and photochemical properties

The mesoporous material MCM-41 was synthesized by a hydrothermal method, and perylene bisimide dye was incorporated into its channels by impregnation. The absorption, FTIR, fluorescence emission, and decay spectra of perylene bisimide dye in CHCl₃ and in MCM-41 were studied to investigate the effect of the one-dimensional channel of MCM-41 on the photophysical and photochemical properties of the dye. The results indicated that the nanochannels of MCM-41 shifted the absorption and emission maxima to red and broadened the spectra, with loss of vibrational structure. The fluorescence decay curves fitted a double-exponential function and the lifetime of perylene bisimide dye in MCM-41 was prolonged. The huge surface area of the mesoporous molecular sieve MCM-41 prevented aggregation of dye molecules, which can thus be used at high concentration.     

NSAID naproxen in mesoporous matrix MCM-41: drug uptake and release properties

Hexagonally ordered mesoporous silica material MCM-41 (S_BET?=?1090?m²/g, pore size?=?31.2 ?) was synthesized and modified by 3-aminopropyl ligands. The differences in an uptake and subsequent release of anti-inflammatory drug naproxen from unmodified and amino modified MCM-41 samples were studied. The prepared materials were characterized by high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), nitrogen adsorption/desorption, Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), thermoanalytical methods (TG/DTA) and elemental analysis. The amount of the drug released was monitored with thin layer chromatography (TLC) with densitometric detection in defined time intervals. The amounts of the released naproxen from mesoporous silica MCM-41/napro and amine-modified silica sample A-MCM-41/napro were 95 and 90% of naproxen after 72?h. In this study we compare the differences of release profiles from mesoporous silica MCM-41 and mesoporous silica SBA-15.     

Incorporation of porphyrins into mesopores of MCM-41

To introduce porphyrins such as the alcoholic-hydroxyl-group-appended free base porphyrin derivative (HP) of 5-[4-(3-hydroxylpropyloxycabonyl)phenyl]-10,15,20-triphenylphorphine into mesopores of MCM-41, samples were treated with 0-4.0 mmol dm-3 HP toluene solutions and the materials obtained were characterized by various means. The framework structure of MCM-41 was not altered by the treatment. With increasing HP concentration, the specific surface area and pore size decreased; in contrast, the number of HP molecules in the material increased almost linearly from 0 to 0.17 groups nm-2. These facts reveal that the HP molecules are incorporated into mesopores of MCM-41. IR results indicated that the hydroxyl group of the HP molecule reacts with surface free SiOH groups of the MCM-41 by a dehydration reaction. Diffuse reflection UV-vis spectra of the HP-introduced material were almost the same as that of pure HP molecules. The Beers plot suggested that the HP molecules in the material are dispersed at an HP concentration less than 1.0 mmol dm-3, and above that concentration, aggregation or flattening of the HP molecules on the MCM-41 surface takes place.

Single molecule photobehavior of a chromophore interacting with silica-based nanomaterials

Single molecule studies of the free DY-630-MI and interacting with MCM-41 and (Al)MCM-41, show the conformational diversity of the molecule. The free dye is characterized by a single broad (fwhm = 0.7 ns) lifetime distribution histogram centered on 1.47 ns, which is also reflected in the broadness of the polarization value distribution histogram, covering almost the full range of values from -1 to 1. The fluorescence intensity traces of the free DY-630-MI show strong blinking behavior and weak photostability. Upon interaction with the mesoporous silica nanomaterials, MCM-41 and (Al)MCM-41, the dye molecule becomes more stable, with less blinking present in the fluorescence traces. The lifetime distribution histogram in the case of DY-630-MI/MCM-41 complexes is fitted by 3 Gaussians, indicating 3 distinct interaction sites. The Gaussian with the largest amplitude is centered on 2.19 ns, consistent with the confinement effect of MCM-41 and in agreement with the ensemble average studies. The polarization value distribution histogram becomes narrower in comparison with the free molecule and is more biased towards the positive limit. Replacing few Si(4+) ions with Al(3+) ones in the regular MCM-41 changes the local electrostatic field within the nanotube. This atomic substitution in the nanohosts results in a more selective orientation of the dye molecules, giving two populations with time constants 1.56 and 2.10 ns.     

Adsorption of crystal violet dye from aqueous solution using mesoporous materials synthesized at room temperature

In this work, batch adsorption experiments are carried out for crystal violet dye using mesoporous MCM-41 synthesized at room temperature and sulfate modified MCM-41 prepared by impregnation method using H₂SO₄ as sulfatising agent. The surface characteristics, pore structure, bonding behavior and thermal degradation of both the MCM-41 samples are characterized by nitrogen adsorption/desorption isotherms, X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA). The adsorption isotherm, kinetics and thermodynamic parameters are investigated for crystal violet (CV) dye using the calcined and sulfated MCM-41. Results are analysed using Langmuir, Freundlich and Redlich-Peterson isotherm models. It is found that the Freundlich model is an appropriate model to explain the adsorption isotherm. The highest adsorption capacity achieved is found to be 3.4×10⁻⁴ mol g⁻¹ for the sulfated MCM-41. The percentage removal of crystal violet dye increases with increase in the pH for both the MCM-41 adsorbents. Kinetics of adsorption is found to follow the second-order rate equation. From the thermodynamic investigation, it is evident that the adsorption is exothermic in nature.     

Bright photoluminescent hybrid mesostructured silica nanoparticles

Bright photoluminescent mesostructured silica nanoparticles were synthesized by the incorporation of fluorescent cyanine dyes into the channels of MCM-41 mesoporous silica. Cyanine molecules were introduced into MCM-41 nanoparticles by physical adsorption and covalent grafting. Several photoluminescent nanoparticles with different organic loadings have been synthesized and characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, high resolution transmission electron microscopy and nitrogen physisorption porosimetry. A detailed photoluminescence study with the analysis of fluorescence lifetimes was carried out to elucidate the cyanine molecules distribution within the pores of MCM-41 nanoparticles and the influence of the encapsulation on the photoemission properties of the guests. The results show that highly stable photoluminescent hybrid materials with interesting potential applications as photoluminescent probes for diagnostics and imaging can be prepared by both methods.

Design and Synthesis of a Highly Sensitive Off–On Fluorescent Chemosensor for Zinc Ions Utilizing Internal Charge Transfer

Fluorescence imaging is a powerful tool for the visualization of biological molecules in living cells, tissue slices, and whole bodies, and is important for elucidating biological phenomena. Furthermore, zinc (Zn²⁺) is the second most abundant heavy metal ion in the human body after iron, and detection of chelatable Zn²⁺ in biological studies has attracted much attention. Herein, we present a novel, highly sensitive off–on fluorescent chemosensor for Zn²⁺ by using the internal charge transfer (ICT) mechanism. The rationale of our approach to highly sensitive sensor molecules is as follows. If fluorescence can be completely quenched in the absence of Zn²⁺, chemosensors would offer a better signal‐to‐noise ratio. However, it is difficult to quench the fluorescence completely before Zn²⁺ binding, and most sensor molecules still show very weak fluorescence in the absence of Zn²⁺. But even though the sensor shows a weak fluorescence in the absence of Zn²⁺, this fluorescence can be further suppressed by selecting an excitation wavelength that is barely absorbed by the Zn²⁺‐free sensor molecule. Focusing on careful control of ICT within the 4‐amino‐1,8‐naphthalimide dye platform, we designed and synthesized a new chemosensor ( 1 ) that shows a pronounced fluorescence enhancement with a blueshift in the absorption spectrum upon addition of Zn²⁺. The usefulness of 1 for monitoring Zn²⁺ changes was confirmed in living HeLa cells. There have been several reports on 4‐amino‐1,8‐naphthalimide‐based fluorescent sensor molecules. However, 1 is the first Zn²⁺‐sensitive off–on fluorescent sensor molecule that employs the ICT mechanism; most off–on sensor molecules for Zn²⁺ employ the photoinduced electron transfer (PeT) mechanism.     

Photostability of novel copolymers functionalized with laser dyes based on modified rhodamine 6G and 1,8-naphthalimide

Modified rhodamine 6G molecules (Rh-Al or Rh-Aln) with polymerizable double bonds had been copolymerized with 1,8-naphthalimide derivatives. In copolymers PRNAM, naphthalimide moieties are connected to rhodamine moieties at nitrogen atom of rhodamine moiety, and in copolymers PRNM naphthalimide moieties are connected to rhodamine moieties at ester group of rhodamine moiety. We report on their photostability in liquid solution and in solid film. The photodegradation kinetics of novel copolymers functionalized with laser dyes based on modified rhodamine 6G and 1,8-naphthalimide has been studied by UV-VIS absorption spectroscopy. The results show that the rates of the photofading reactions of these novel copolymers follow quasi-first-order. The photostability of the copolymers functionalized with laser dyes in solid films is better than that in solutions. The different type of the copolymer shows the different photostability.     

Aminopyrene functionalized mesoporous silica for the selective determination of resorcinol

Aminopyrene was convalently anchored onto the surface of mesoporous MCM-41 silica by post-grafting. This organic-inorganic hybrid has been applied as sensing material to phenols determination. Experimental results reveal that the functionalized material presents good sensitivity and selectivity towards resorcinol and can be used for resorcinol determination in water at pH 6.0. The fluorescence intensity of aminopyrene functionalized mesoporous silica decreases proportionally to the logarithm of resorcinol concentration in water. The linear range for resorcinol detection lies in 4.79-163 μM with a detection limit of 2.86 μM (S/N = 3).     

Design and synthesis of core and peripherally functionalized with 1,8-naphthalimide units fluorescent PAMAM dendron as light harvesting antenna

This paper reports on the design, synthesis and spectral characteristics of a novel PAMAM dendron (7), core and peripherally functionalized with 1,8-naphthalimide fluorophores. The novel compound 7 was configured as light harvesting antenna where the system surface is functionalized with “donor” dyes (blue emitting 1,8-naphthalimides) that are capable of absorbing light and efficiently transferring the energy to a single “acceptor” dye (yellow-green emitting 1,8-naphthalimide) in the focal point of the dendron. The overlap between the emission of the donor and the absorbance of the acceptor was more than 95%. As a result of the energy transfer, the blue emission intensity of the periphery in the donor–acceptor system was decreased with 93%, while the yellow-green core fluorescence enhancement (λ_ex = 360 nm) of the system was more than 26 times with respect to the fluorescence intensity of the comparative yellow-green emitting 1,8-naphthalimide. This indicates efficient energy transfer between the donor and acceptor dye fragments and that the novel compound 7 would be able to act as a highly efficient light harvesting antenna.     

Synthesis of a Naphthalimide Functionalized Calix[4]arene; A Host Type Fluorophore for Inclusion Compounds in Organic Medium

This article reports the synthesis and the properties of 5,11,17,23-tetra(t-butyl)-25,27-bis-(ethoxy-1,8-naphthalimide)-26,28-hidroxy-calix[4]arene and the formation of an inclusion compound in organic medium. This functionalized calix[4]arene was conceived as the association of a potential host species with a good fluorophore for optical sensoring purposes. Calix[4]-NI as we will call it, maintains its ‘cone-pinched’ configuration and exhibits typical naphthalimide fluorescence bands in non-polar solvents. Its ability to interact with guest species via hydrogen bonding in its endo-hydrophilic cavity to form inclusion compounds was verified with absorption and fluorescence measurements using N-ethanol-1,8-naphthalimide as guest species, which was projected to fit exactly the host cavity and to interact with its naphthalimide π electrons. For this reason, it was possible to follow the formation of the inclusion compound with electronic spectroscopy.     

Gatekeeping layer effect: a poly(lactic acid)-coated mesoporous silica nanosphere-based fluorescence probe for detection of amino-containing neurotransmitters

We have synthesized a poly(lactic acid) coated MCM-41-type mesoporous silica nanosphere (PLA-MSN) material can serve as a fluorescence sensor system for detection of amino-containing neurotransmitters in neutral aqueous buffer. Utilizing the PLA layer as a gatekeeper, we investigated the molecular recognition events between several structurally simple neurotransmitters, i.e., dopamine, tyrosine, and glutamic acid and a pore surface-anchored o-phthalic hemithioacetal (OPTA) group, which functions as a fluorescence-sensing group that can react with the neurotransmitters with primary amine groups and form the corresponding fluorescent isoindole products. The poly(lactic acid) layer of the PLA-MSN sensor showed a unique "sieving" effect that regulates the rates of diffusion of the amino acid-based neurotransmitters into the sensor mesopores of the material.     

New green fluorescent polymer sensors for metal cations and protons

A new 4-(N-methylpiperazine)-N-allyl-1,8-naphthalimide with intense yellow-green fluorescence has been synthesized. Then it has been copolymerized with styrene and methylmetacrylate. The photophysical characteristics of the fluorescent dye and its copolymers (poly(St-co-NI) and poly(MAA-co-NI)) have been determined viewing their sensor properties for protons and transition metal cations (Cu²⁺, Fe³⁺ and Zn²⁺). Fluorescence enhancement is the photophysical response of the 4-(N-methylpiperazine)-N-allyl-1,8-naphthalimide to the presence of metal cations and protons, while fluorescence quenching is observed for both copolymers.     

Synthesis and fluorescence of N-substituted-1,8-naphthalimides

Functionalized bimodal mesoporous silicas as carriers for controlled aspirin delivery

The bimodal mesoporous silica modified with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane was performed as the aspirin carrier. The samples’ structure, drug loading and release profiles were characterized with X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, N₂ adsorption and desorption, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, TG analysis, elemental analysis and UV-spectrophotometer. For further exploring the effects of the bimodal mesopores on the drug delivery behavior, the unimodal mesoporous material MCM-41 was also modified as the aspirin carrier. Meantime, Korsmeyer-Peppas equation f_t=ktⁿ was employed to analyze the dissolution data in details. It is indicated that the bimodal mesopores are beneficial for unrestricted drug molecules diffusing and therefore lead to a higher loading and faster releasing than that of MCM-41. The results show that the aspirin delivery properties are influenced considerably by the mesoporous matrix, whereas the large pore of bimodal mesoporous silica is the key point for the improved controlled-release properties.
