The Synthesis, Characterization, Crystal Structure and Photophysical Properties of a New Meso-BODIPY Substituted Phthalonitrile

Abstract

A b s t r a c t A n e w h i g h l y f l u o r e s c e n t difluoroboradipyrromethene (BODIPY) dye (4) bearing an phthalonitrile group at meso-position of the chromophoric core has been synthesized starting from 4-(4-mesodipyrromethene-phenoxy)phthalonitrile (3) which was prepared by the oxidation of 4-(2-meso-dipyrromethanephenoxy)phthalonitrile (2). The structural, electronic and photophysical properties of the prepared dye molecule were investigated. The final product exhibit noticeable spectroscopic properties which were examined by its absorption and fluorescence spectra. The original compounds prepared in the reaction pathway were characterized by the combination of FT-IR, 1 H and 13 C NMR, UV-vis and MS spectral data. It has been calculated; molecular structure, vibrational frequencies, 1 H and 13 C NMR chemical shifts and HOMO and LUMO energies of the title compound by using B3LYP method with 6-311++G(dp) basis set, as well. The final product (4) was obtained as single crystal which crystallized in the triclinic space group P-1 with a=9.0490 (8) Å, b=10.5555 (9) Å, c= 11.7650 (9) Å, α=77.024 (6)°, β=74.437 (6)°, γ=65.211 (6)°a nd Z=2. The crystal structure has intermolecular C-H···F weak hydrogen bonds. The singlet oxygen generation ability of the dye (4) was also investigated in different solvents to determine of using in photodynamic therapy (PDT).

Deep Learning Algorithm Classifies Heartbeat Events Based on Electrocardiogram Signals

“…The padding type is “same.” The dropout layer is also set in the blocks, and the dropout rate is 0.5. This was an effective means to solve the overfitting problem ( Srivastava et al, 2014 ). As mentioned earlier, BiLSTM can be more effective in discerning feature difference and recognizing categories for the feature matrix of the ECG signal.…”

“…The photophysicochemical features of all the stated macromolecules were examined according to the methods described in Refs. (35)(36)(37)(38)(39). The related methods and equations have been extensively explained in the "Supporting Information" section.…”

Current Advances in the Synthesis of Valuable Dipyrromethane Scaffolds: Classic and New Methods

“…Aiming to synthesize a 5,10-diacyltripyrrane, an essential intermediary synthon for the preparation of a 5,10-diacylcalix[4]pyrrole, Mahanta and Panda were able to unexpectedly isolate acyldipyrromethane 32 with a yield up to 31% (Figure 2), following the trifluoroacetic acid (TFA)-catalyzed reaction of 2,3-butanedione and excess pyrrole [41]. Yildiz et al have described the synthesis, characterization, crystal structure and theoretical calculations of two new meso -borondipyrromethene (BODIPY) incorporating a phthalonitrile moiety [42,43]. Crucial for their detailed report was the preparation of meso -phenoxyphthalonitrile dipyrromethanes 33 and 34 (Figure 2), which were attained in 53% and 61% yields, respectively, after typical room temperature condensation of suitable and previously obtained aldehydes with excess pyrrole in the presence of TFA.…”
