Spectral properties of a water soluble metal free tetracarboxyphenoxy bisnaphthalophthalocyanine (3) were studied in water and organic solvents. It was found that in protic solvents, complex 3 was highly aggregated. The surfactant, Triton X100, and bovine serum albumin (BSA) do not effect disaggregation while cetyl trimethylammonium chloride (CTAC) caused the molecule to disaggregate. The fluorescence quantum yields were higher in the presence of CTAC. Studying the interaction of BSA with complex 3 using fluorometry revealed that BSA is highly quenched by the latter. A 1:1 stoichiometric binding ratio between BSA and the Pc was found. Triplet quantum yields in water containing CTAC were higher than in organic solvents.

AbstractPeripherally and non-peripherally tetrasubstituted-[(N-methyl-2-pyridylthio)]phthalocyaninato magnesium (II) (5 and 6) and chloro aluminium (III) (7 and 8) tetraiodide have been synthesized and characterized. The photophysical properties of the complexes in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and aqueous medium in the presence and absence of cremophore EL have been studied. These complexes show high solubility in aqueous medium though they were aggregated. The triplet state quantum yields (FT) and the triplet lifetimes (tT) were found to be higher in DMSO with ΦT ranging from 0.32 to 0.51, while tT ranged from 282 to 622 ms in DMSO, compared to aqueous medium (pH 7.4 buffer) where ΦT ranged from 0.15 to 0.19 and tT from 26 to 35 ms. Addition of cremophore EL in aqueous solution resulted in partial disaggregation and increased photoactivity. The fluorescence lifetimes of the complexes showed strong dependence on their immediate environment. The ionic magnesium(II) and aluminium(III) phthalocyanines strongly bind to bovine serum albumin (BSA).

The photophysical properties of tetrakis(1,1-dimethyl-2-trimethylammonium)ethylphthalocyaninato zinc(II) tetraiodide (I) – a water-soluble cationic phthalocyanine – are presented in the presence of human serum albumin (HSA) and in micelles of sodium dodecylsulfate ( SDS ) and hexadecyltrimethylammonium chloride ( CTAC ). Spectrophotometric measurements showed that the surfactants SDS and CTAC induce monomerization of I, although the latter less efficiently than the former. This effect is less pronounced in the presence of HSA. The strength of this effect is evaluated through dimerization constants, which are Kd = (5 ± 1) × 105 m−1 in SDS , (1.5 ± 0.5) × 106 M −1 in CTAC , and (1.8 ± 0.9) × 106 M −1 in HSA. Fluorescence experiments confirm that aggregation of I drops as the concentration of surfactant is raised. Triplet quantum yields also decreased upon aggregation and were Φ T = 0.59, 0.16, and < 0.01 in SDS , CTAC , and HSA, respectively. These results indicate that the affinity of I for the environment is not just due to ionic interactions; hydrophobic interactions play an equally important role.

The complexes are characterized by 1 H NMR, IR and UV-vis spectroscopies. Their photophysical properties are presented where moderate fluorescence quantum yields (0.14-0.19) and lifetimes were determined. Varied triplet quantum yields were obtained and the triplet lifetimes (40-100 μs) were short.

Perylene Bisimides

Perfluorinated liquids can exhibit immiscibility with organic solvents and water, and provide orthogonal opportunities in chemistry. Examples of emissive dyes that display only fluorous phase solubility are limited, despite the many potential applications. Perylene bisimides are among the most versatile dyes and are known for their outstanding stability and high quantum yields. Herein, we report the synthesis of two new “fluorofluorescent” perylene bisimide dyes, designed to be soluble in the fluorous phases. These two dyes possess unique photophysical properties, including dramatic increases in fluorescence quantum yields when treated with Brønsted acids as well as aggregation in the fluorous phase.

AbstractA rapid access to a series of N-heteroarene fluorophores has been developed on the basis of the palladium-catalyzed direct oxidative C–H/C–H coupling of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines with thiophenes/furans. The photophysical properties–structure relationship was systematically investigated. The resulting N-heteroarene fluorophores present color-tunable emissions (λem: 431–507 nm in CH2Cl2) and high fluorescence quantum yields (up to 91% in CH2Cl2).

New indeno[1,2-c]pyran-3-ones bearing different substituents at the pyran moiety were synthesized and their photophysical properties were investigated. In solution all compounds were found to be blue emitters and the trans isomers exhibited significantly higher fluorescence quantum yields (relative to 9,10-diphenylanthracene) as compared to the corresponding cis isomers. The solid-state fluorescence spectra revealed an important red shift of λmax due to intermolecular interactions in the lattice, along with an emission-band broadening, as compared to the solution fluorescence spectra.

A series of novel blue-light-emitting 2H-imidazo[5,1-a]isoquinolinium chloride derivatives were synthesized by the reaction of isoquinoline with trifluoroacetimidoyl chlorides and isocyanides in dry CH2Cl2 in excellent yields. Fluorescence studies showed that the compounds absorb UV radiation and then emit blue light at about 481 nm with moderate to good fluorescence quantum yields. These compounds also showed high Stokes shifts, and can be used to develop ­ultrasensitive fluorescent molecular probes to study a variety of biological events and processes.

A robust transition-metal-free strategy is presented to access novel β-carboline-tethered benzothiophenone derivatives from 1(3)-formyl-β-carbolines using elemental sulfur activated by Et3N/DMSO. This expeditious catalyst-free reaction proceeds through the formation of β-carboline-based 2-nitrochalcones followed by an incorporation of sulfur to generate multifunctional β-carboline-linked benzothiophenones in good to excellent yields. The synthetic strategy could also be extended towards the synthesis of β-carboline-linked benzothiophenes. Moreover, the afforded products emerged as promising fluorophores and displayed excellent light-emitting properties with quantum yields (ΦF) up to 47%.

This paper deals with a series of new unsymmetrically substituted mesoporphyrins: 5-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-10,15,20-tris-phenyl-21,23-H-porphyrin (TPPOHO), 5-(3-hydroxyphenyl)-10,15,20-tris-phenyl-21,23-H-porphyrin (TPPOHM), 5-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-10,15,20-tris-phenyl-21,23-H-porphyrin (TPPOHP), 5-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-10,15,20-tris-butyl-21,23-H-porphyrin (TBPOHO), and their parent nonsubstituted compounds, respectively, 5,10,15,20-tetrakis-phenyl-21,23-H-porphyrin (TPP) and 5,10,15,20-tetrakis-butyl-21,23-H-porphyrin (TBP). Several photophysical studies were carried out to access the influence of the unsymmetrical substitution at the porphyrinic macrocycle on porthyrin's photophysical properties, especially porthyrin's efficiency as singlet oxygen sensitizers. The quantum yields of singlet oxygen generation were determined in benzene (ΦΔ(TPP) = 0.66 ± 0.05;ΦΔ(TPPOHO) = 0.69 ± 0.04;ΦΔ(TPPOHM) = 0.62 ± 0.04;ΦΔ(TPPOHP) = 0.73 ± 0.03;ΦΔ(TBP) = 0.76 ± 0.03;ΦΔ(TBPOHO) = 0.73 ± 0.02) using the 5,10,15,20-tetraphenyl-21,23-H-porphine (ΦΔ(TPP) = 0.66) and Phenazine (ΦΔ(Phz) = 0.83) as reference compounds. Their fluorescence quantum yields were found to be (Φf(TPPOHO) = 0.10 ± 0.04;Φf(TPPOHM) = 0.09 ± 0.03;Φf(TPPOHP) = 0.13 ± 0.02;Φf(TBP) = 0.08 ± 0.03 andΦf(TBPOHO) = 0.08 ± 0.02 using 5,10,15,20-tetraphenyl-21,23-H-porphine as referenceΦf(TPP) = 0.13). Singlet state lifetimes were also determined in the same solvent. All the porphyrins presented very similar fluorescence lifetimes (mean values ofτS(withO2, air equilibrated) = 9.6 ± 0.3 nanoseconds and (withoutO2, argon purged) = 10.1 ± 0.6 nanoseconds, resp.). The phosphorescence emission was found to be negligible for this series of unsymmetrically substituted mesoporphyrins, but an E-type, thermally activated, delayed fluorescence process was proved to occur at room temperature.

The synthesis of novel, symmetrical zinc(II) phthalocyanine (ZnPc) bearing four ethynylcyclohexyloxy terminal moieties was achieved by cyclotetramerization of novel 4-(2-ethynylcyclohexyloxy) phthalonitrile in pentanol in the presence of DBU and zinc acetate without any protective/deprotective chemistry. Subsequently, this new zinc(II) phthalocyanine derivative was reacted with 6-azido-hexanoic acid under "click-chemistry" conditions to give phthalocyanine-hexanoic acid conjugates linked by 1,2,3-triazole units. The new compounds have been characterized by using elemental analyses, UV-vis, FTIR, 1 H NMR and mass spectroscopic data. The aggregation properties of the compounds were investigated in different concentrations. General trends are also described for fluorescence quantum yields and lifetimes of novel zinc derivatives in tetrahydrofuran. The fluorescence of the tetrasubstituted zinc(II) phthalocyanine complexes is effectively quenched by 1,4-benzoquinone (BQ) in THF.
