2,2â²:6â²,2â³-Terpyridine (tpy) was found to exhibit remarkably efficient fluorescence in organic solutions when substituted by 6-amino (2, λfl
= 384 nm, Φ
= 0.70, dichloromethane) and 6,6â³-diamino (3, λfl
= 386 nm, Φ
= 0.48, dichloromethane) groups. The fluorescence maxima of 6-amino tpys were shifted to longer wavelengths as the solvent polarity increased, whereas the absorption maxima were little affected. In protic solvents, the fluorescence was largely quenched. The absorption and fluorescence bands of 2 and 3 were observed in the same region as those of 6-amino-2,2â²-bipyridine, but at much longer wavelengths compared to 2-aminopyridine. These results and detailed
analysis of the absorption and fluorescence spectra reveal that the photophysical properties of tpys could be interpreted as resulting from a contribution of the two bipyridyl units within the tpy structures that share the center pyridyl ring; the 6-aminobipyridyl unit appeared to be the fluorescent chromophore of 2 and 3. Semi-empirical molecular orbital calculations supported the above conclusion.
研究发现,2,2â²:6â²,2â³-三吡啶(thyy)在有机溶液中被 6-氨基(2,δ "fl = 384 nm,δ = 0.70,二氯甲烷)和 6,6â³-二氨基(3,δ "fl = 386 nm,δ = 0.48,二氯甲烷)基团取代后,会表现出显著的高效荧光。随着溶剂极性的增加,6-氨基 tpys 的荧光最大值向更长波长移动,而吸收最大值则几乎不受影响。在质子溶剂中,荧光在很大程度上被淬灭。2 和 3 的吸收带和荧光带与 6-氨基-2,2â²-联吡啶的吸收带和荧光带位于同一区域,但与 2-氨基吡啶相比,波长要长得多。这些结果以及对吸收光谱和荧光光谱的详细分析揭示,噻哌噻嗪的光物理特性可以解释为噻哌噻嗪结构中的两个共用中心吡啶环的双吡啶基单元的贡献;6-氨基双吡啶基单元似乎是 2 和 3 的荧光发色团。半经验分子轨道计算支持上述结论。
