New D-π-A-type chromophores that simultaneously incorporate N,N-dimethylaminophenyl moiety as the terminal electron-donating group and either (5,5-dimethylcyclohex-2-en-1-ylidene)malononitrile (DCM-1) or (6-methyl-4H-pyran-4-ylidene)malononitrile (DCM-2) unit as the terminal electron-withdrawing group were synthesized. Vinylene moiety and azo group served as the π-spacer. A comparative analysis of optical and electrochemical properties of the synthesized chromophores revealed that the replacement of the DCM-1 unit with the DCM-2 moiety led to chromophore band gap broadening and a decrease in the molar extinction coefficient value; while the replacement of the DCM-1 unit with the DCM-2 one in the chromophores bearing the vinylene π-spacers led to a sharp increase in the fluorescence quantum yield.
我们合成了新的 D-π-A 型发色团,这些发色团同时包含 N,N-二甲基
氨基苯基作为末端电子供体,以及 (5,5 二甲基环己-2-烯-1-亚基)
丙二腈 (DCM-1) 或 (6-甲基-
4H-吡喃-4-亚基)
丙二腈 (DCM-2) 单元作为末端电子吸收基团。
乙烯基和偶氮基团作为π-间隔物。对所合成发色团的光学和电
化学性质进行的比较分析表明,用 DCM-2 基团取代 DCM-1 单元会导致发色团带隙变宽,摩尔消光系数值降低;而在带有
乙烯基 π-垫片的发色团中,用 DCM-2 取代 DCM-1 单元会导致荧光量子产率急剧增加。
