Terthiophene Appended with Terpyridine Units as Receptors for Protons and Zn2+ Ions: Photoinduced Energy and Electron Transfer Processes

Abstract: Two ligands consisting of 2,2Ј:6Ј,2ЈЈ-terpyridine (tpy) and terthiophene units (3T) connected by a methyleneoxy (TTT) or an alkynyl bridge (TAT) show different photophysical properties: in the former there is no evidence of a ground state interaction between the two constituent chromophores and the expected 3T emission is observed. On the other hand, the latter exhibits strong π-conjugation between the two chromophores mediated by the alkynyl bridge: this results in a substantially redshifted absorption and an… Show more

“…86,204,205 Zn(II)-binding lowers the LUMO level of terpy , renders it an efficient e-acceptor to provide a PET pathway for the fluorophores in 20 (Fig. 24, left), 204 TTT , 86 and 21 , 206 which contains a 1,2,3-triazolyl analogue of terpy (“clickate”), to relax non-radiatively. The clickate/Zn(II) coordination is similar to that of terpy in both coordination geometry and associated fluorescence modulations.…”
