The D-π-A type phosphonium salts in which electron acceptor (A=-+ PR3 ) and donor (D=-NPh2 ) groups are linked by polarizable π-conjugated spacers show intense fluorescence that is classically ascribed to excited-state intramolecular charge transfer (ICT). Unexpectedly, salts with π=-(C6 H4 )n - and -(C10 H6 C6 H4 )- exhibit an unusual dual emission (F1 and F2 bands) in weakly polar or nonpolar solvents
D-π-A型phospho盐,其中电子受体(A =-+ PR3)和施主(D = -NPh2)通过可极化的π-共轭间隔基连接,显示出强烈的荧光,这通常归因于激发态分子内电荷传输(ICT)。出乎意料的是,在弱极性或非极性溶剂中,具有π=-(C6 H4)n-和-(C10 H6 C6 H4)-的盐表现出不同寻常的双重发射(F1和F2谱带)。时间分辨荧光研究显示从F1到F2发射的连续时间演变,这可以通过ICT驱动的抗衡离子迁移来合理化。通过光诱导ICT,抗衡离子从-+ PR3移至-NPh2,然后返回基态,从而实现离子转移循环。增加溶剂极性使溶剂稳定成为主要因素,并实际上停止了离子迁移。
