The fluorescence characteristics of 4-substituted chloro and fluorobenzenes I and II were studied in isooctane and acetonitrile solutions. It was found that all compounds exhibit a weak (substituent and solvent dependent) fluorescence in the range 305-370 nm with quantum yields 1.2 . 10-2-2.3 . 10-1. The relation between the substituent nature and fluorescence band position may be quantified by log νf~ = ρσp + log νf~0, the magnitude of the shift paralleling the donor strength of the substituent. Fluorescence quantum yields are increased approximately by a factor 2 on going from isooctane to acetonitrile and solvent-induced shifts are proportional to the static dipole moment change Δμ which occurs upon excitation. Radiative decay rate varies only slightly around a mean value of 5 . 107 s-1 and shows no substantial difference between chloro (I) and fluoro (II) derivatives. The non-radiative decay rate (of the order ~ 109 s-1) was found to be about 5 times higher in the case of chloro compounds due to the more efficient S1 - Tn intersystem crossing.

A design strategy for (porphinato)zinc-based fluorophores that possess large near infrared fluorescence quantum yields is described. These fluorophores are based on a (5,15-diethynylporphinato)zinc(II) framework and feature symmetric donor or acceptor units appended at the meso-ethynyl positions via benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole moieties. These (5,15-bis(benzo[c][1′,2′,5′]thiadiazol-4′-ylethynyl)-10,20-bis[2′,6′-bis(3″,3″-dimethyl-1″-butyloxy)phenyl]porphinato)zinc(II) (4), (5,15-bis[4′-(N,N-dihexylamino) benzo[c][1′,2′,5′]thiadiazol-7′-ylethynyl]-10,20-bis[2′,6′-bis(3″,3″-dimethyl-1″-butyloxy)phenyl]porphinato)zinc(II) (5), (5,15-bis([7′-(4″-n-dodecyloxyphenylethynyl)benzo[c][1′,2′,5′]thiadiazol-4′-yl]ethynyl)-10,20-bis[2′,6′-bis(3″,3″-dimethyl-1″-butyloxy)phenyl]porphinato)zinc(II) (6), (5,15-bis([7′-([7″-(4″ ′-n-dodecyloxyphenyl)benzo[c][1″,2″,5″]thiadiazol-4″-yl]ethynyl)benzo[c][1′,2′,5′]thiadiazol-4′-yl]ethynyl)-10,20-bis[2′,6′-bis(3″,3″-dimethyl-1″-butyloxy)phenyl]porphinato)zinc(II) (7), 5,15-bis ([7′-(4″-N,N-dihexylaminophenylethynyl)benzo[c][1′,2′,5′]thiadiazol-4′-yl]ethynyl)-10,20-bis[2′,6′-bis(3″,3″-dimethyl-1″-butyloxy)phenyl]porphinato)zinc(II) (8), and (5,15-bis([7′-(4″-N,N-dihexylaminophenylethenyl)benzo[c][1′,2′,5′]thiadiazol-4′-yl]ethynyl)-10,20-bis[2′,6′-bis(3″,3″-dimethyl-1″-butyloxy)phenyl]porphinato)zinc(II) (9) chromophores possess red-shifted absorption and emission bands that range between 650 and 750 nm that bear distinct similarities to those of the chlorophylls and structurally related molecules. Interestingly, the measured radiative decay rate constants for these emitters track with the integrated oscillator strengths of their respective x-polarized Q-band absorptions, and thus define an unusual family of high quantum yield near infrared fluorophores in which emission intensity is governed by a simple Strickler–Berg dependence.

The non-radiative decay of substituted dicyano-distyrylbenzenes in solution increase with the Franck–Condon energy, being opposite to the conventional energy gap law.

The phosphorescence spectra, mean lifetimes of phosphorescence and ratios of phosphorescence/ fluorescence quantum yields have been measured for 5-phenyltetrazole and its three methyl derivatives in a polyvinyl alcohol film over the temperature range of (77-250) K. Temperature responses of the non-radiative intersystem crossing constant. KST, and the non-radiative triplet state deactivation constant, km, have been investigated on the basis of these measurements. The energy of activation for the non-radiative transitions has been determined. With the methyl 5-phenyltetrazoles, the thermal deactivation of the triplet state, contrary to the intersystem crossing, has been found to be influenced by the position of the methyl substituent in the phenyl ring.
