Abstract: | Boron dipyrromethenes (BODIPYs) with bulky triphenylsilylphenyl(ethynyl) and triphenylsilylphenyl substituents on pyrrole sites were prepared via Hagihara-Sonogashira and Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling with ethynyl-terminated tetraphenylsilane and boronic acid-terminated tetraphenylsilane. The chromophores are designed to prevent intermolecular π-π stacking interaction and enhance fluorescence in the solid state. Single crystals of 1?a and 2?b for X-ray structural analysis were obtained, and weak π-π stacking interactions of the neighboring BODIPY molecules were observed. Spectroscopic properties of all of the dyes in various solvents and in films were investigated. Triphenylsilylphenyl-substituted BODIPYs generally show more pronounced increases in solid-state emission than triphenylsilylphenyl(ethynyl)-substituted BODIPYs. Although the simple BODIPYs do not exhibit any fluorescence in the solid state (Φ=0), arylsilyl-substituted BODIPYs exhibit weak to moderate solid-state fluorescence with quantum yields of 0.03, 0.07, 0.10, and 0.25. The structure-property relationships were analyzed on the basis of X-ray crystallography, optical spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and theoretical calculations. |
