Abstract:In this article, we employ a systematic approach to the computational quantum chemical study of the twophoton absorption (2PA) properties of 161 representative molecules containing a symmetrically substituted fluorene unit. The molecules studied contain meta-or para-substituted phenyl groups, five-and six-membered heterocycles, and benzo derivatives of five-membered heterocycles. The computational procedure employed to calculate the 2PA parameters was previously described [Chem. Mater. 2008, 20, 4142] and is … Show more
“…Figure 1b presents ac omparison of the emission spectra of MFDP in THF,c rystal V-MFDP,B -MFDP and G-MFDP.T he four emission spectra exhibited very different profiles and emission peaks ranging from 377 nm to 515 nm. On the basis of the reference, [51] we think that the emission of the THF solution peakeda t3 77 nm with av ibronic structure should originate from as ingle molecule of MFDP.O bviously,t he luminescence properties of the three crystal polymorphs are strictly related to their intermoleculari nteractions and molecular packingp atterns. In addition, compared with the three crystal polymorphs, the THFs olution of MFDP shows as hort fluorescence decay time (t ave = 0.23 ns), which should be attributed to the free MFDP single molecule ( Figure 1c).…”

Stimuli-responsive organic luminescence-switching materials have attracted much attention for ad ecade. Most of the reported examples display areversibletwo-color luminescence switching, and multicolor-switchingm aterials remain extremelyr are. Herein,w er eport as imple organic molecule, 4,4'-(9,9-dimethyl-9H-fluorene-2,7-diyl)dipyridine (MFDP), which exhibits three different crystal polymorphs (V-MFDP, B-MFDP and G-MFDP)w ith different luminescent colors. Furthermore, the three crystal polymorphs show ar e-versible tricolor fluorescent switching from violet to blue and to green upon physicals timuli. The single-crystal structures of the three polymorphs were obtained, and the results indicatet hat the stimuli-responsive properties of the three polymorphs come from the different stacking modes induced by intermoleculari nteractions. The competitionb etween weak p-p stacking and weak hydrogen bonding is the main reason for the the phase transformations among the three crystal polymorphs.Scheme1.The chemical structure and single-crystal structure of MFDP.[a] J.

“…The two-photon absorption (2PA) process has selection rules that are different from those of the traditional one-photon absorption (1PA) processes [1], 2PA is quadratically proportional to the intensity of the incident light, and hence, by focusing the long wavelength laser beam, one can precisely localize 2PA in a small volume, and penetrate deep inside the bulk of the material. These merits of 2PA materials endow their promising applications, such as manufacturing of optical limiting, 3-D microfabrication, photodynamic therapy, high-density optical storage, holographic data storage, frequency-upconverted lasing, and bioimaging [2].…”

“…Accordingly, to address the practical application requirements for two-photon absorption materials, this idea is based on the following considerations: (1) Triphenylamine is a unique molecule possessing useful functions such as redox activity, fluorescence due to the high oxidizability of the nitrogen center, and transportability of positive charge centers via the radical cation species. So the family of triphenylamine derivatives was widespread use as hole transporting materials, emitting layers in electroluminescent diodes, light harvesters in dye-sensitized solar cells, and nonlinear optical materials during the past few decades [14]; (2) The ethoxyl segment, compared to a phenyl group, has much more steric hindrance and hence might avoid p-p stack between the molecules and more powerfully prevent unfavorable chromophore aggregation.…”
Die Kombination von formkomplementären, bis‐monodentaten Liganden LA und LB mit PdII‐Kationen erlaubt das Selbstsortieren heteroleptischer Käfige der Formel cis‐[Pd2LA2LB2]. Wir berichten, wie solche Gebilde durch die Einführung kovalenter Brücken zwischen den Rückgraten zweier LA‐Einheiten diversifiziert werden können. Durch Lösungsmittel‐ und Gasteffekte wird gezeigt, dass die Flexibilität dieser Brücken die Zahl an Metallionen und Hohlräumen sowie die Topologie von vier Produkten bestimmt. Der Ligand LA1 mit flexiblem Linker reagiert in CH3CN mit seinem LB‐Pendant zu einem vierkernigen Dimer (D1). In DMSO wird ein dreikerniger Pseudotetraeder T1 gebildet. Das Produkt von starrem LA2 mit LB ähnelt D1, jedoch mit rotierter Ligandanordnung (D2). In Gegenwart eines Gastes wandelt sich D2 in Prisma P2 um. Wir zeigen, wie die Steuerung des Koordinationsmodus eines Liganden strukturelle Differenzierung auslösen und somit die Komplexität in der Metall‐vermittelten Selbstassemblierung erhöhen kann.
