Lithiation of 2-(2-bromophenyl)-dioxolane (1) followed by reaction with dimesitylboron fluoride afforded 2-(2-dimesitylborylphenyl)-dioxolane (2) which was deprotected to afford 2- dimesitylboryl-benzaldehyde (3). Compound 3 reacts with aliphatic amines such as n-butylamine and ethanolamine to afford the corresponding imines 2-(dimesitylboryl)benzylidenebutylamine (4) and 2-(dimesitylboryl)benzylideneethanolamine (5), respectively. Structural studies indicate coordination of the imine-nitrogen atom to the boron center. Imines 4 and 5 emit a green fluorescence near 510 nm with quantum yields approaching 10%. TD-DFT calculations suggest that this emission arises from an intramolecular charge-transfer excited state

<p>We present a benchmark study of the performance of various recently presented EOM-pCCD-based methods to model ground and excited state properties of a set of f0 actinide species that feature different types of electronic excitations, like local excitations or charge transfer. Our data suggests that the recently developed EOM-pCCD-LCCSD method outperforms conventional approaches like EOM-CCSD reducing the standard error by a factor of 2 (to 0.25 eV). Thus, EOM-pCCD-LCCSD can be considered as an alternative to model excited states in challenging systems, especially those who feature a double electron transfer for which EOM-CCSD typically fails.</p>

Ground State Dipole Moments

The solvatochromic fluorescence behaviour of mono-carbonyl curcumin analogues has been studied in ten different solvents ranging from non-polar to polar. The solvent effect on the spectral properties of analogues has been discussed. The ground state dipole moments were estimated experimentally by Bilot-Kawski equation which is a function of Stokes shift with the solvent polarity parameters and Guggenheim method and theoretically by TD-DFT studies. The excited state dipole moment was determined using Bilot-Kawski equations. The excited state dipole moments for the two molecules were found to be higher than their corresponding ground state dipole moments. Theoretically Frontier molecular orbital (HOMO/ LUMO) energies were determined by Gaussian 09 W software using TD-DFT.

The fluorescent base guanine analog, 8-vinyl-deoxyguanosine (8vdG), is studied in solution using a combination of optical spectroscopies, notably femtosecond fluorescence upconversion and quantum chemical calculations, based on time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) and including solvent effect by using a mixed discrete-continuum model. In all investigated solvents, the fluorescence is very long lived (3–4 ns), emanating from a stable excited state minimum with pronounced intramolecular charge-transfer character. The main non-radiative decay channel features a sizeable energy barrier and it is affected by the polarity and the H-bonding properties of the solvent. Calculations provide a picture of dynamical solvation effects fully consistent with the experimental results and show that the photophysical properties of 8vdG are modulated by the orientation of the vinyl group with respect to the purine ring, which in turn depends on the solvent. These findings may have importance for the understanding of the fluorescence properties of 8vdG when incorporated in a DNA helix.
