The aggregation ability and exciton dynamics of dyes are largely affected by properties of the dye monomers. To facilitate aggregation and improve excitonic function, dyes can be engineered with substituents to exhibit optimal key properties, such as hydrophobicity, static dipole moment differences, and transition dipole moments. To determine how electron donating (D) and electron withdrawing (W) substituents impact the solvation, static dipole moments, and transition dipole moments of the pentamethine indocyanine dye Cy5, density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent (TD-) DFT calculations were performed. The inclusion of substituents had large effects on the solvation energy of Cy5, with pairs of withdrawing substituents (W-W pairs) exhibiting the most negative solvation energies, suggesting dyes with W-W pairs are more soluble than others. With respect to pristine Cy5, the transition dipole moment was relatively unaffected upon substitution while numerous W-W pairs and pairs of donating and withdrawing substituents (D-W pairs) enhanced the static dipole difference. The increase in static dipole difference was correlated with an increase in the magnitude of the sum of the Hammett constants of the substituents on the dye. The results of this study provide insight into how specific substituents affect Cy5 monomers and which pairs can be used to engineer dyes with desired properties.

A manifold of singlet, triplet, and quintet electronic states of the sulfur monoiodide cation (SI+) correlating with the two lowest-lying dissociation channels is characterized theoretically at a high level of theoretical treatment (SA-CASSCF/MRCI+Q/aug-cc-pV5Z) for the first time. Potential energy curves, also including the effect of spin-orbit couplings, are constructed and the associated spectroscopic parameters and dissociation energies determined. As to the molecular polarity, we computed the dipole moment as a function of the internuclear distance and the associated vibrationally averaged dipole moments. Transition dipole moment functions were also constructed, and transition probabilities, as expressed by the Einstein coefficients for spontaneous emission, were evaluated for selected pairs of states that we identify as more easily accessible to experimental investigation. An analysis of the bonding in this system is also presented. Together with previous studies on neutral and cationic sulfur-monohalides, one has a comprehensive view of this series of molecules.

AbstractSome bulk quantities appropriate for the description of electro-optical absorption measurements on macroscopic systems are defined and their properties are discussed. Based on three molecular models (Lorentz model, Onsager model in spherical approximation and in ellipsoidal approximation) model molar quantities are introduced, which depend on intrinsic properties of the molecule (dipole moments and polarizabilities in the ground and excited state, transition dipole moment and transition polarizability). The relations will be applied for the evaluation of the results of electro-optical absorption measurements on Michler's ketone in cyclohexane in a wavenumber interval near 30 · 105 m-1 . The angles between the dipole moments in the ground and the excited state and the transition dipole moment will be determined; the magnitude of the dipole moment in the corresponding excited state is μaG = 30 · 10-30 Cm. The data show that the symmetry of a solute Michler's ketone molecule most probably corresponds, at least approximately, to the pointgroup Cs.

The one-photon absorption (OPA) properties of tetrabenzoporphyrins (TBPs) and phthalocyanines (Pcs) were studied using the semiempirical ZINDO method and time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT), respectively. The compared results confirmed that the semiempirical ZINDO method was reasonably reliable when calculating the OPA of tetrabenzoporphyrins and phthalocyanines. On the basis of the OPA properties obtained from the ZINDO method, two-photon absorption (TPA) properties of two series of molecules were investigated, using ZINDO and sum-over-states (SOS) methods. The results showed that the TPA cross-sections of all molecules were in the range of 220.6 × 10–50 – 345.9 × 10–50 cm4·s·photon–1, which were in the same order of magnitude as the values reported in the literature. The relatively larger δ(ω) value for Pcs with respect to that for corresponding TBPs originates from larger intramolecular charge transfer, which can be characterized by the difference of dipole moment between S0 and S1 and the transition dipole moment between S1 and S5.Key words: two-photon absorption, ZINDO, sum-over-states, tetrabenzoporphyrin, phthalocyanines.
