Highly selective BODIPY-clickates for mercury sensing are reported. These BODIPY clickates exhibits emission in red region with unprecedented large Stokes shifts (116 and 154 nm) upon mercury ion binding due to the intramolecular charge transfer processes.

AbstractTwo electronic push–pull fluorophores consisting of a benzothiadiazole core and a terminal N,N-dimethylamino electron donating group were prepared. The effect of the terminal electron withdrawing group (–NO2 and –CN) on the spectroscopic, electrochemical, and spectroelectrochemical properties were examined. The fluorophores were solvatochromic with Stokes shifts upward of 9000 cm−1 being observed in aprotic solvents of varying polarity. It was found that the fluorophores fluoresced appreciably (86 % > Φfl > 18 %) in hexane, toluene, diethyl ether, dichloromethane, ethyl acetate, and THF. The fluorescence was quenched in acetonitrile, acetone, and DMSO. The fluorophores also fluoresced appreciably in thin films when embedded in poly(methyl methacrylate) and poly(dimethylsiloxane) matrices. Protonating the terminal amine with trifluoroacetic acid quenched the intramolecular charge transfer band, although the fluorophores remained fluorescent. The fluorophores could also be reversibly oxidized electrochemically. The resulting oxidized state was visually different than the neutral form. Electrochemical oxidation also led to reversible changes in both the fluorescence wavelength and intensity.

Several 2-(phenylethynyl)triphenylene derivatives bearing electron donor and acceptor substituents on the phenyl rings have been synthesized. The absorption and fluorescence emission properties of these molecules have been studied in solvents of different polarity. For a given derivative, solvent polarity had minimal effect on the absorption maxima. However, for a given solvent the absorption maxima red shifted with increasing conjugation of the substituent. The fluorescence emission of these derivatives was very sensitive to solvent polarity. In the presence of strongly electron withdrawing (–CN) and strongly electron donating (–NMe2) substituents large Stokes shifts (up to 130 nm, 7828 cm−1) were observed in DMSO. In the presence of carbonyl substituents (–COMe and –COPh), the largest Stokes shift (140 nm, 8163 cm−1) was observed in ethanol. Linear correlation was observed for the Stokes shifts in a Lippert–Mataga plot. Linear correlation of Stokes shift was also observed with E T(30) scale for protic and aprotic solvents but with different slopes. These results indicate that the fluorescence emission arises from excited state intramolecular charge transfer in these molecules where the triphenylene chromophore acts either as a donor or as an acceptor depending upon the nature of the substituent on the phenyl ring. HOMO–LUMO energy gaps have been estimated from the electrochemical and spectral data for these derivatives. The HOMO and LUMO surfaces were obtained from DFT calculations.

Two novel quinoxaline-bridged bisBODIPYs have been synthesized by the condensation of 2,3-bis(5-formylpyrrol-2-yl)quinoxaline with 3-ethyl-2,4-dimethylpyrrole followed by a modification using a Knoevenagel reaction. They were well characterized by X-ray diffraction, NMR, HRMS UV-vis and fluorescence spectroscopy. These two quinoxaline-bridged bisBODIPYs have unusual broad absorption bands, which are different from those of typical BODIPYs They exhibit broad red-shifted emission bands centered at around 610 nm and 730 nm respectively with larger Stokes shifts at the range of 1421–2136 cm[Formula: see text] Both bisBODIPYs show different extent solvent-dependent fluorescence and exhibit fluorescence quenching in polar solvents due to the existence of possible intramolecular charge transfer.

Intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) fluorescence has been widely investigated and exploited in sensor molecules. However, steric effects on the ICT fluorescence properties have rarely been reported so far, although research...
