Synthesis, photophysical properties and DFT analysis of highly substituted pyrido carbazole-based “push pull” chromophores

Photophysical properties of photoactive molecules with conjugated push-pull structures.

The photophysical properties of two newly synthesized photoactive compounds with asymmetrical D-pi-A structure and symmetrical D-pi-A-pi-D structure are investigated in different aprotic solvents by steady-state and femtosecond fluorescence depletion measurements. It is found that the asymmetrical DA compound has larger dipole moment change than that of the symmetrical DAD compound upon excitat...

Design and Synthesis of Push–Pull Chromophores: Effects of Conjugation Types on the Optoelectronic Properties

Synthesis, Characterization and Photophysical Properties of Pyridine-Carbazole Acrylonitrile Derivatives

We synthesized three novel highly fluorescent compounds, 2-(2'-pyridyl)-3-(N-ethyl-(3'-carbazolyl))acrylonitrile, 2-(3"-pyridyl)-3-(N-ethyl-(3'-carbazolyl))acrylonitrile, and 2-(4-pyridyl)-3-(N-ethyl-(3'-carbazolyl))acrylonitrile by Knoevenagel condensation. The first two were synthesized without solvent in the presence of piperidine as a catalyst; the third was synthesized without a catalyst a...

Photophysical Property of Photoactive Molecules with Multibranched Push-Pull Structures†

The structure-property characteristics of a series of newly synthesized intramolecular chargetransfer (ICT) compounds, single-branch monomer with triphenylmethane as electron donor and 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole as acceptor, the corresponding two-branch dimer and threebranch trimer, have been investigated by means of steady-state and femtosecond timeresolved stimulated emission fluorescence depleti...

A boron-containing carbazole dimer: synthesis, photophysical properties and sensing properties.

A novel boron-containing π-conjugated compound has been synthesized by the introduction of electron-acceptors (dimesitylboron groups) at the 3,3'-positions of a carbazole dimer (electron-donor). The compound possesses excellent electrochemical properties and high fluorescence quantum yields. In addition, is a sensitive fluorescence sensor with remarkable colour changes and the results could ...
