Meso-substituted borondipyrromethene (BODIPY)-porphyrin compounds that include free base porphyrin with two different numbers of BODIPY groups (BDP-TTP and 3BDP-TTP) were designed and synthesized to analyze intramolecular energy transfer mechanisms of meso-substituted BODIPY-porphyrin dyads and the effect of the different numbers of BODIPY groups connected to free-base porphyrin on the energy transfer mechanism. Absorption spectra of BODIPY-porphyrin conjugates showed wide absorption features in the visible region, and that is highly valuable to increase light-harvesting efficiency. Fluorescence spectra of the studied compounds proved that BODIPY emission intensity decreased upon the photoexcitation of the BODIPY core, due to the energy transfer from BODIPY unit to porphyrin. In addition, ultrafast pump-probe spectroscopy measurements indicated that the energy transfer of the 3BDP-TTP compound (about 3 ps) is faster than the BDP-TTP compound (about 22 ps). Since the BODIPY core directly binds to the porphyrin unit, rapid energy transfer was seen for both compounds. Thus, the energy transfer rate increased with an increasing number of BODIPY moiety connected to free-base porphyrin.

ABSTRACTThe intramolecular photoinduced energy and electron transfer within a fullereneoligothiophene-fullerene triad with nine thiophene units (C60-9T-C60) and an oligo(p-phenylene vinylene)-fullerene dyad with four phenyl groups (OPV4-C60) is investigated with femtosecond pump-probe spectroscopy with sub-10 fs and 200 fs time resolution in solvents of different polarity. Photoexcitation of the π-conjugated oligomer moiety in the triad and dyad results in an ultrafast singlet-energy transfer reaction to create the fullerene singlet-excited state with a time constant of 150-190 fs, irrespective of the polarity of the medium. In a polar solvent, intramolecular electron transfer occurs from the oligomer moiety to the C60 moiety with a time constant of 10-13 ps as a secondary reaction, subsequent to the ultrafast singlet-energy transfer. The charge-separated state has a lifetime of 50-80 ps and recombines to the ground state.

Probe Spectroscopy

The construction and operating principles of a two-color pump/probe spectrometer are described. This instrument is capable of obtaining ground-state absorption spectra, both singlet-singlet and triplet-triplet excited-state absorption spectra, photoproduct spectra, and stimulated fluorescence spectra. In addition, time-dependent measurements can be made with an impulse response of 250 ps and a free temporal range of 13 ns.

In-depth photophysical studies of four flexible covalent cages bearing either two free-base porphyrins or one free-base porphyrin and one Zn(II) porphyrin, connected by linkers of different lengths, are reported. In the case of the cages with two free-base porphyrins, exciton coupling between the porphyrins is evidenced by large and split Soret bands in the absorption spectra, but the different length of the linkers has only a slight effect on their emission properties. Strong electronic interactions between the porphyrins are also evidenced for the cages that incorporate a free-base porphyrin and a Zn(II) porphyrin, with a more pronounced splitting of the Soret band for the system with longer linkers. In these cages, following excitation of the Zn-porphyrin component, an almost quantitative energy transfer to the free-base unit occurs, with a rate 1.4 times faster in the cage with longer linkers (1.4 × 10[Formula: see text] s[Formula: see text] vs. 1.0 × 10[Formula: see text] s[Formula: see text]. This difference might reflect the more flattened conformation adopted by the cage equipped with longer and more flexible linkers, the latter allowing for a shorter interplanar distance between the porphyrins. The results are discussed in terms of classical and short-range energy transfer mechanisms.
