We present a spectroscopic investigation on the effect of changing the position where carbazole is attached to biphenyl in carbazolebiphenyl (CBP) on the triplet state energies and the propensity to excimer formation. For this, two CBP derivatives have been prepared with the carbazole moieties attached at the ( para ) 4- and 4 ′ -positions ( p CBP) and at the ( meta ) 3- and 3 ′ -positions ( m CBP) of the biphenyls. These compounds are compared to analogous m CDBP and p CDBP, i.e. two highly twisted carbazoledimethylbiphenyls, which have a high triplet energy at about 3.0 eV and tend to form triplet excimers in a neat film. This torsion in the structure is associated with localization of the excited state onto the carbazole moieties. We find that in m CBP and p CBP, excimer formation is prevented by localization of the triplet excited state onto the central moiety. As conjugation can continue from the central biphenyls into the nitrogen of the carbazole in the para -connected p CBP, emission involves mainly the benzidine. By contrast, the meta -linkage in m CBP limits conjugation to the central biphenyl. The associated shorter conjugation length is the reason for the higher triplet energy of 2.8 eV in m CBP compared with the 2.65 eV in p CBP.

The transient produced on flash excitation of degassed solutions of thymine in acetonitrile has been characterized as the triplet excited state of thymine. This triplet state has a lifetime of 14 ± 1 μs and the associated dimerization rate was found to be 5.3 ± 0.3 × 108 M−1 s−1. The triplet state of thymine could be quenched by 2,4-hexadien-1-ol with a rate constant of 8.1 ± 0.6 × 109 M−1 s−1.

Photoexcitation spectra of triplet (T1← S0) zero-phonon lines and phonon sidebands in different anthracene electron donor-acceptor (EDA) complex crystals (A-PMDA, A-TCNB, A-TCPA) have been analyzed between 1.3 K and 50 K at high spectral resolution. From the electron-phonon coupling strength at T = 0 K values of the charge-transfer (CT) character in the range between 6% and 10% are calculated. The differences in these values are found to be correlated with the energetic positions of the triplet state, which are explained within the framework of the Mulliken theory.

<p>The present study aims to provide a solid ground for the identification, characterization and controlled design of pro-aromatic quinoidal organic compounds holding conjugated rings with Hückel and/or Baird (singlet and triplet) excited state aromatic character, and expects to become a reference work for future studies on Baird-aromaticity. Concretely, we explore a wide range of compounds with a central conjugated ring of different sizes and symmetric exocyclic substitutions. We employ a combination of different computational tools and we also introduce a new energy-based approach for the quantification of the Baird-aromatic character. </p> <p> </p> The key findings of this study indicate that Baird aromaticity is achieved in pro-aromatic quinoidal compounds having small anionic rings or in electron deficient rings with the proper exocyclic substitution. Low-lying states of these systems show very strong hole/electron overlaps, implying that their aromaticity cannot be related to intramolecular charge transfer.
