Synthesis and fluorescence of dicyanoisophorone derivatives
摘要:
A class of dicyanoisophorone derivatives 1-5 with electron-donating groups has been prepared by a two-step condensation reaction. Fluorescence both in solution and in pure solid state are measured. It is found that dicyanoisophorone derivatives 1-5 exhibit fluorescence in both solution and pure solid state. An enhancement of fluorescence in solid state probably results from the aggregation-induced emission. It is also found that dicyanoisophorone derivatives 1-5 show large Stoke's shifts in solution as well as in pure solid state. The origin of fluorescence of dicyanoisophorone derivatives depends on the nature of substituents, with a strong push pull chromophores dicyanoisophorone system, red or orange solid-state fluorescence is obtained.
