Four asymmetric bis-branched triphenylamine derivatives with charge transfer from one branch to the other: Two-photon emissions and bio-imaging applications
摘要:
Four asymmetric bis-branched triphenylamine-cored compounds with different electron-withdrawing groups have been synthesized and their optical properties have been systematically investigated. The two-photon absorption cross-section (sigma(2PA))values were measured by two-photon excited fluorescence which revealed that the four compounds possessed large sigma(2pA) values from 2011 to 4173 GM in the near infrared region. Theoretical calculations revealed that the compounds were all provided with interesting intramolecular charge transfer generated from one branch to the other which contributed to the large sigma(2PA) values. Cytotoxicity tests indicated that all these compounds had good biocompatibility for living cells, both one- and two-photon fluorescence microscopy studies showed the potential application of the four new compounds in cell imaging due to the large sigma(2pA) and appropriate biocompatibility.

Methoxy supported, deep red emitting mono, bis and tris triphenylamine-isophorone based styryl colorants: Synthesis, photophysical properties, ICT, TICT emission and viscosity sensitivity
摘要:
A novel strategy for the synthesis of triphenylamine based and methoxy supported deep red emitting push-pull chromophores is developed. The methoxy groups though not in conjugation with the acceptor exhibited a red shifted absorption and emissions (670 nm) as compared to the unsubstituted analogues due to the improved donating ability of triphenylamine. The dyes show high molar extinction coefficients (1, 65,800 M-1 cm(-1)) and as the number of withdrawing groups increases the molar extinction coefficient and emission intensity increase. Positive solvatochromism (96 nm) was observed which is well supported by linear and multi-linear regression. The mono styryl dyes showed enhancement of fluorescence while the di and tri-styryl dyes show quenching of fluorescence in polar solvents, which is correlated with the intramolecular charge transfer and twisted intramolecular charge transfer. Viscosity induced emission enhancement has also been observed. The experimental. findings were correlated theoretically by using Density Functional theory computations. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd.
