Phenylene Alkylene Dendrons with Site-Specific Incorporated Fluorescent Pyrene Probes
摘要:
[GRAPHICS]This report deals with the synthesis and the spectroscopic properties of two second generation (G2) dendrons with site-specific incorporated phenyl pyrene derivatives as solvatochromic fluorescent probes. The generations that do not carry the probe are equipped with volume dummies, pyrene moieties that do not show a solvatochromic effect. Two complementary G2 phenylene alkylene dendrons were synthesized using Suzuki-Miyaura cross coupling. Most of the reactions used in the 10-step sequence generating the target compounds proceeded in good yields. The incorporated probes can be selectively photoexcited and show solvatochromic shifts that are of the same magnitude as for the free probes in a homogeneous solvent environment. In addition to the chargetransfer fluorescence, a broad emission band is observed that is assigned to an intramolecular exciplex formation between the aryl pyrene chromophores.

Synthesis and Spectroscopic Properties of Arene-Substituted Pyrene Derivatives as Model Compounds for Fluorescent Polarity Probes
In this paper, the syntheses of a variety of substituted phenyl pyrenes 5a−n by Suzuki cross-coupling and of two decoupled analogues 10 and 17 are reported. These compounds have been investigated by fluorescence spectroscopy. The solvatochromism of their emission bands (Stokes shift) and the quantum yields in methylcyclohexane and acetonitrile have been determined. Furthermore, the crystal structure
