Aryl pyrimidones are pharmacologically relevant compounds whose optical properties have only been partially explored. We report the synthesis and optical characterization of a series of aryl- and diaryl-2(1H)-pyrimidones. The electronic transitions of these chromophores are modulated by the extent of conjugation between the pendant phenyl ring and the pyrimidone core as well as the presence of electron-donating auxochromes. Monoprotonation of the pyrimidone ring results in large hyperchromic and bathochromic shifts as well as switching of fluorescence making these phenyl pyrimidones of interest as sensory materials.
A simple approach to aggregation-induced emission in difluoroboron dibenzoylmethane derivatives
摘要:
The first example of an AIE active BF(2)dbm derivative with a single dimethylamino group connecting to the phenyl ring was revealed. It also showed capability of sensing HCI gas both in solution and in the solid state. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
The first 1,3-boronate rearrangement to ketones is reported. The reaction is driven by visible light irradiation, leading to various β-keto tertiary alcohols under metal-free conditions. The excited state overcomes the energy barrier for the rearrangement, and mechanistic studies have excluded a free-radical reaction pathway.
