Self-Organization of Spheroidal Molecular Assemblies in Polar Solvents
摘要:
[GRAPHICS]We report a number of 1:1 noncovalent complexes composed of a symmetrical trisphosphonate and various symmetrical trisammonium or trisamidinium compounds. The spheroidal complexes show high thermodynamic stability, with association constants K-a reaching 10(6) M-1 in methanol and in some cases even exceeding 10(3) M-1 in water. The observed K-a values correlate well with the different degree of preorganization of the complexation partners.

In this paper we describe a convenient and convergent approach to the synthesis of novel and highly luminescent (diphenylvinyl)benzene (DPVB)-based conjugated star-shaped molecules, which can be used as emitting dyes in doped OLEDs. The versatility of this synthetic route allows tuning of the HOMO–LUMO energy levels of the materials by means of the introduction of different electroactive peripheral groups. Two related star-shaped dyes have been prepared, one with amine and one with alkoxy end groups, and have been characterized using optical spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. The energy levels of the dyes are found to lie within the band gap of a polyfluorene (PF) derivative such that energy transfer from the photoexcited PF to the dyes takes place. In OLEDs that contain 1 wt% of dye in PF, the emission is predominantly from the dye. Although the EL spectra are similar for the two dyes, other device characteristics differ greatly. OLEDs using the amine-terminated dye have a luminance that is a few orders of magnitude lower than that based on the alkoxy-terminated dye. The differences are explained by the positioning of the HOMO and LUMO levels of the two dyes compared to those of PF. The dye with the amine end group can act as a deep trap for holes, reducing charge transport in the film.

[structure: see text]. A novel convergentsyntheticroute for the preparation of functionalized and fluorescent stilbenoid dendrons built on the 1,3,5-benzene core and endowed with a periphery of dibutylamino groups has been developed. Long alkyl chains have been incorporated on the peripheral amino moieties to increase the solubility of the final products. Good donor ability of the new dendrimers
triphenylamine-containing BTD branches. All the BTD-based dyes displayed intense orange-red color fluorescence in a region of 550-689 nm, which was obtained by single-photon excitation with good fluorescent quantum yield up to 0.98 as well as by two-photon excitation. Large two-photonabsorption (TPA) cross-sections (110-800 GM) of these BTD dyes were evaluated by open aperture Z-scan technique with a
We present a simple and versatile access to spheroidal molecular assemblies with pronounced stability in highly polar solvents. These complexes are composed of doubly and triply charged complementary building blocks based on ammonium or amidinium cations and phosphonate anions. Their high thermodynamic stability is best explained by the formation of a cyclic array of alternating positive and negative charges interconnected by a regular network of hydrogen bonds. Association constants reach 10(6) M-1 in methanol and often surpass 10(3) M-1 in water. The broad range of binding energies correlates well with the varying degree of preorganization of both complex partners. As a byproduct of these investigations, new recognition motifs for histidine and arginine esters and the unsubstituted guanidinium ion are proposed. The additional introduction of methyl groups in the 2-, 4-, and 6-positions of the central benzene ring in either cations or anions causes a marked drop in the corresponding K-a values of 1 order of magnitude; the related rotational barriers were estimated at 0.3-2.1 kcal/mol. Spontaneous formation of defined 2:1 complexes from three components has also been observed.
