Anthrathiadiazole Derivatives: Synthesis,Physical Properties and Two-photon Absorption

Anthrathiadiazole is a key synthon for the construction of large azaacenes, however, the attachment of different substituents onto the skeleton of anthrathiadiazole is difficult but highly desirable because it could be easy to enrich the structures of azaacenes. Here, it is demonstrated that anthrathiadiazole derivatives with −Br, −CN, and −OCH₃ groups could be easily constructed through a simple [4+2] cycloaddition reaction between a,a,a’,a’-tetrabromo-o-xylenes derivatives and benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole-4,7-dione. The structures of the as-prepared compounds with different substituents were carefully characterized. Moreover, the basic physical properties of the as-prepared anthrathiadiazole derivatives were fully investigated, where the cyano-substituted derivative (BTH - CN) has the highest stability and the methoxy-substituted derivative ( BTH - OCH₃) is easy to be oxidized. Moreover, the two-photon absorption (TPA) characteristics of different anthrathiadiazoles are also studied by using the femtosecond Z-scan technique. The results show that the fused anthrathiadiazole skeletons possess large TPA cross-section values δ₂ in the range of 3000–5000 GM, where the nature, position and strength of the substituted groups have strong effect on these values.

Structure and Two-photon Excited Blue Fluorescence of an Asymmetrical Substituted Stilbene

In common fluorescence process, molecular excitation is caused by the absorption of at least a single photon with shorter wavelength. When certain laser is used as the pump source, some compounds can be excited by simultaneous absorption of at least two photons and then the emission of up-converted fluorescence may occur. This process is called two-photon excited fluorescence (TPEF)1,2. Because of several advantages of TPEF, including intrinsic high three-dimensional resolution and the p…     

Theoretical Studies on One-photon and Two-photon Absorption Properties of Pyrene-core Derivatives

The analytic response theory at density functional theory level is applied to investigate one-photon and two-photon absorption properties of a series of recently synthesized pyrene-core derivatives. The theoretical results show that there are a few charge-transfer states for each compound in the lower energy region. The one-photon absorption properties of the five investigated compounds are highly consistent with those given by experimental measure-ments. The two-photon absorption intensities of the compounds are greatly enhanced with the increments of the molecular sizes, in which the two-photon absorption cross section of the four-branched compound is about 5.6 times of that of the mono-branched molecule. Further-more, it is shown that the two-photon absorption properties are sensitive to the geometrical arrangements.
