The synthesis of new benzothiazole push-pull systems as candidates for NLO-phores is described. Spectral (UV/VIS and solvatochromic) and theoretical studies (electronic properties based on semiempirical AM1 and PM3 methods) of the prepared compounds were carried out. The structure and physico-chemical parameters affecting the push-pull character and intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) of the studied compounds have been investigated and compounds with enhanced hyperpolarizability β have been predicted. The benzothiazolium salts were found to be much more effective NLO-phores in comparison with the corresponding neutral benzothiazoles. The 4-NPh2 group is the most effective donor. The extension of conjugated bridge improves the studied NLO characteristics. An additional acceptor group bonded to the heterocycle causes a red shift of λmax but does not increase hyperpolarizability.

Research activities in the field of imidazole-derived push–pull systems featuring intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) are reviewed. Design, synthetic pathways, linear and nonlinear optical properties, electrochemistry, structure–property relationships, and the prospective application of such D-π-A organic materials are described. This review focuses on Y-shaped imidazoles, bi- and diimidazoles, benzimidazoles, bis(benzimidazoles), imidazole-4,5-dicarbonitriles, and imidazole-derived chromophores chemically bound to a polymer chain.

Intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) compounds have attracted wide attention for their potential applications in optoelectronic materials and devices such as fluorescent sensors, dye-sensitized solar cells, organic light emitting diodes and nonlinear optics. In this work, we have synthesized a new ICT compound, dimethyl-[4-(7-nitro-benzo[1,2,5]thiadiazol-4-yl)-phenyl]-amine (BTN), and have fabricated it into low dimensional micro/nano structures with well-defined morphologies. These self-assembled nanostructures exhibit high efficiency solid state fluorescence via an aggregation induced emission mechanism, which overcomes the defect of fluorescence quenching caused by aggregation in the solid state of traditional luminescent materials. We also explored and studied the nonlinear optical properties of this material through the Z-scan method, and found that this material exhibits large third-order nonlinear absorption and refraction coefficients, which promises applications of the materials in the fields of nonlinear optics and optoelectronics.

Abstract DFT calculations were performed to study the nanostructures obtained by the multifunctionalization of one and two acetylsalicylic acid radicals on fullerene ylide. The increase in the number of aspirin molecules functionalized on fullerene ylide increases the energy stability of the formed nanostructures. The analysis of the vibrational spectra of these nanostructures shows that the formed systems are stable and present some vibrational modes in accordance with the experimental data. The degree of solubility and polarity of these nanostructures increases with the number of functionalized molecules. Multifunctionalization considerably improves the nonlinear optical properties of the modeled nanostructures. With functionalization of isolated aspirin molecule, the electronic properties are very improved, not too much passing to multifunctionalization. The formed nanostructures are soft, more electrophilic and more reactive than the aspirin molecule, but with multifunctionalization the charge transfer decreases.

The molecular vibrations of 3-methoxy-2,4,5-trifluorobenzoic acid (MFBA) were studied by recording the FTIR and FT-Raman spectra and the vibrational frequencies have been compared with the DFT-B3LYP calculations. The optimized structural characteristics of the molecule have been studied by both calculated and experimental data. NBO analyses and the LUMO-HOMO energy gap of the molecule shows the intramolecular charge transfer interaction. Further, the nonlinear optical properties of MFBA have been investigated from the calculated values of first hyperpolarizability and total dipolemoment. The electrostatic potential and Mulliken charges of MFBA have also been performed.
