On the Estimation of Excited-State Dipole Moments from Solvatochromic Shifts of Absorption and Fluorescence Spectra

Abstract: The effect of the solvent polarity parameters f (e, n) and j (e, n) appearing in solvatochromic theories, and the effect of the molecular shape of the Onsager cavity (sphere, ellipsoid of revolution) on the determined electric dipole moments m e in the singlet excited state are studied. It is found that the shape of the solute does not exhibit a significant effect on the determined values of m e , but only on the solvent parameters f (e, n) and j (e, n) as well as on the Onsager radius a. Passing from a sphere… Show more

“…The blue S 2 fluorescence of 247 in solution is essentially invariant to solvent polarity, but the NIR fluorescence seen in a nonpolar environment red shifts and becomes quenched as the polarity increases (Table S1) (19,20). Thus, 247 is a "sensitive fluorophore" (21) whose NIR emission color and intensity provides insight into its microenvironment within a biological system.…”

“…These equations are obtained by considering the solute polarizability ( α ) to be isotropic and the condition 2 α / a 3 = 1 . Here, ‘ a ’ refers to the solute Onsager cavity radius, and furthermore, n and ε are the refractive index and solvent dielectric constant, respectively.…”

“…Among the techniques available for elucidation of the ground and excited state dipole moments, the most accepted technique is based on Bilot-Kawski equation and Bakhshiev [58]. This solvatochromic method is based on the shifts in the absorption and emission maxima with polarity functions of solvents, expressed by the dielectric constant (ε) and refractive index (n) of the solvent medium.…”

“…The μ g and μ e values of a molecule can be determined by the solvent-polarity dependences of the absorption and fluorescence spectra on the basis of the simple quantummechanical second-order perturbation theory by BilotKawski et al by using the following solvent polarity parameters, f BK (ε, n)and g BK (ε, n) [45,58,59].…”
