Detection of boronic acids through excited-state intramolecular proton-transfer fluorescence.

ABSTRACT: Boronic acids are versatile reagents for the chemical synthesis of organic molecules. They and other boron-containing compounds can be detected readily by the interruption of the excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) of 10-hydroxybenzo[h]quinolone. This method is highly sensitive and selective, and useful for monitoring synthetic reactions and detecting boron-containing compounds on a solid support.

Excited State Dynamics of Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence from an Excited State Intramolecular Proton Transfer System.

Project description:We describe the photophysical processes that give rise to thermally activated delayed fluorescence in the excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) molecule, triquinolonobenzene (TQB). Using transient absorption and time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy, we fully characterize prompt and delayed emission, phosphorescence, and oxygen quenching to reveal the reverse intersystem crossing mechanism (rISC). After photoexcitation and rapid ESIPT to the TQB-TB tautomer, emission from S1 is found to compete with thermally activated ISC to an upper triplet state, T2, very close in energy to S1 and limiting photoluminescence quantum yield. T2 slowly decays to the lowest triplet state, T1, via internal conversion. In the presence of oxygen, T2 is quenched to the ground state of the double proton transferred TQB-TC tautomer. Our measurements demonstrate that rISC in TQB occurs from T2 to S1 driven by thermally activated reverse internal conversion from T1 to T2 and support recent calculations by Cao et al. (Cao, Y.; Eng, J.; Penfold, T. J. Excited State Intramolecular Proton Transfer Dynamics for Triplet Harvesting in Organic Molecules. J. Phys. Chem. A 2019, 123, 2640-2649).

Fluorescence Lifetimes of NIR-Emitting Molecules with Excited-State Intramolecular Proton Transfer.

Project description:Molecular probes based on the excited-state intramolecular proton-transfer (ESIPT) mechanism have emerged to be attractive candidates for various applications. Although the steady-state fluorescence mechanisms of these ESIPT-based probes have been reported extensively, less information is available about the fluorescence lifetime characteristics of newly developed NIR-emitting dyes. In this study, four NIR-emitting ESIPT dyes with different cyanine terminal groups were investigated to evaluate their fluorescence lifetime characteristics in a polar aprotic solvent such as CH2Cl2. By using the time-correlated single-photon counting (TCSPC) method, these ESIPT-based dyes revealed a two-component exponential decay (τ1 and τ2) in about 2-4 nanoseconds (ns). These two components could be related to the excited keto tautomers. With the aid of model compounds (5 and 6) and low-temperature fluorescence spectroscopy (at -189 ℃), this study identified the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) as one of the major factors that influenced the τ values. The results of this study also revealed that both fluorescence lifetimes and fractional contributions of each component were significantly affected by the probe structures.

A designed protein binding-pocket to control excited-state intramolecular proton transfer fluorescence.

Project description:Excited-state intramolecular proton transfer involves a photochemical isomerization and creates the opportunity for the emission of two distinct wavelengths of light from a single fluorophore. The selectivity between these two wavelengths of emission is dependent on the environment around the fluorophore and suggests the possibility for ratiometric monitoring of protein microenvironments. Unfortunately, nonspecific binding of ESIPT fluorophores does not often lead to dramatic changes in the ratio between the two wavelengths of emission. A protein binding pocket was designed to selectively discriminate between the two channels of emission available to an ESIPT fluorophore. This work is significant because it demonstrates that specific interactions between the protein and the fluorophore are essential to realize strong ratiometric differences between the two possible wavelengths of emission. The design strategies proposed here lead to an ESIPT fluorophore that can discern subtle differences in the interface between two proteins.

Intramolecular electron-induced proton transfer and its correlation with excited-state intramolecular proton transfer.

Project description:Electron-induced proton transfer depicts the proton motion coupled with the attachment of a low-energy electron to a molecule, which helps to understand copious fundamental chemical processes. Intramolecular electron-induced proton transfer is a similar process that occurs within a single molecule. To date, there is only one known intramolecular example, to the best of our knowledge. By studying the 10-hydroxybenzo[h]quinoline and 8-hydroxyquinoline molecules using anion photoelectron spectroscopy and density functional theory, and by theoretical screening of six other molecules, here we show the intramolecular electron-induced proton transfer capability of a long list of molecules that meanwhile have the excited-state intramolecular proton transfer property. Careful examination of the intrinsic electronic signatures of these molecules reveals that these two distinct processes should occur to the same category of molecules. Intramolecular electron-induced proton transfer could have potential applications such as molecular devices that are responsive to electrons or current.

Highly Efficient Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence from an Excited-State Intramolecular Proton Transfer System.

Project description:Thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials have shown great potential for highly efficient organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). While the current molecular design of TADF materials primarily focuses on combining donor and acceptor units, we present a novel system based on the use of excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) to achieve efficient TADF without relying on the well-established donor-acceptor scheme. In an appropriately designed acridone-based compound with intramolecular hydrogen bonding, ESIPT leads to separation of the highest occupied and lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals, resulting in TADF emission with a photoluminescence quantum yield of nearly 60%. High external electroluminescence quantum efficiencies of up to 14% in OLEDs using this emitter prove that efficient triplet harvesting is possible with ESIPT-based TADF materials. This work will expand and accelerate the development of a wide variety of TADF materials for high performance OLEDs.

Excited-state intramolecular proton-transfer reaction demonstrating anti-Kasha behavior.

Project description:We report unusual photophysical properties observed on two newly designed 3-hydroxychromone derivatives exhibiting the excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) reaction. The efficiency of ESIPT reaction is greatly enhanced upon excitation with high energy quanta to S n (n > 1) levels in low-polarity solvents. Based on detailed analyses of excitation and emission spectra as well as time-resolved emission kinetics we derive that conditions, in which this phenomenon contradicting Kasha's rule is observed, are quite different from that for observation of anti-Kasha emission.

Excited-state intramolecular proton transfer of 2-acetylindan-1,3-dione studied by ultrafast absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy.

Project description:We employ transient absorption from the deep-UV to the visible region and fluorescence upconversion to investigate the photoinduced excited-state intramolecular proton-transfer dynamics in a biologically relevant drug molecule, 2-acetylindan-1,3-dione. The molecule is a ß-diketone which in the electronic ground state exists as exocyclic enol with an intramolecular H-bond. Upon electronic excitation at 300?nm, the first excited state of the exocyclic enol is initially populated, followed by ultrafast proton transfer (?160 fs) to form the vibrationally hot endocyclic enol. Subsequently, solvent-induced vibrational relaxation takes place (?10 ps) followed by decay (?390 ps) to the corresponding ground state.

Polarized Helical Coumarins: [1,5] Sigmatropic Rearrangement and Excited-State Intramolecular Proton Transfer.

Project description:The tandem process of phenol addition to a cyclic α,β-unsaturated ester followed by intramolecular transesterification and [1,5] sigmatropic rearrangement affords a series of helical coumarins based upon a previously unknown 3-amino-7-hydroxybenzo[3,4]cyclohepta[1,2-c]chromen-6-one core. These novel polarized coumarins, possessing a β-ketoester moiety, have been employed to synthesize more rigid and helical coumarin-pyrazolones, which display green fluorescence. The enhanced emission of coumarin-pyrazolones in polar solvents depends on the nature of the S1 state. The coumarin-pyrazolones are predicted to have two vertical states close in energy: a weakly absorbing S1 (1LE) followed by a bright S2 state (1CT). In polar solvents, the 1CT can be stabilized below the 1LE and may become the fluorescent state. Solvatochromism of the fluorescence spectra confirms this theoretical prediction. The presence of an N-H···O═C intramolecular hydrogen bond in these coumarin-pyrazolone hybrids facilitates excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT). This process leads to a barrierless conical intersection with the ground electronic state and opens a radiationless deactivation channel effectively competing with fluorescence. Solvent stabilization of the CT state increases the barrier for ESIPT and decreases the efficiency of the nonradiative channel. This results in the observed correlation between solvatochromism and an increase of fluorescence intensity in polar solvents.

Large fluorescence response by alcohol from a bis(benzoxazole)-zinc(II) complex: the role of excited state intramolecular proton transfer.

Project description:The formation of a bis(HBO) anion is known to turn on the fluorescence to give red emission, via controlling the excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT). The poor stability of the formed anion, however, hampered its application. The anion stability is found to be greatly improved by attaching the anion to Zn(2+) cation (i.e., forming zinc complex), whose emission is at ?em ? 550 and 760 nm. Interestingly, addition of methanol to the zinc complex induces a remarkable red fluorescence (?em ? 630 nm, ?fl ? 0.8). With the aid of spectroscopic studies ((1)H NMR, UV-vis, fluorescence, and mass spectra), the structures of the zinc complexes are characterized. The emission species is identified as a dimer-like structure. The study thus reveals an effective fluorescence switching mechanism that could further advance the application of ESIPT-based sensors.

Theoretical research on excited-state intramolecular proton coupled charge transfer modulated by molecular structure.

Project description:At the TD-B3LYP/TZVP/IEFPCM theory level, we have theoretically studied the excited-state intramolecular proton coupled charge transfer (ESIPCCT) process for both 4'-N,N-diethylamino-3-hydroxyflavone (3HFN) and 2-{[2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)benzo[d]oxazol-6-yl]methylene}malononitrile (diCN-HBO) molecules. Our calculated hydrogen bond lengths and angles sufficiently confirm that the intramolecular hydrogen bonds O1-H1⋯O2 and O1-H1⋯N1 formed at the S0 states of 3HFN and diCN-HBO should be significantly strengthened in the S1 state, which is further supported by the results obtained based on the analyses of infrared spectra shifts, molecular orbitals and charge density differences maps. The significant strengthening of intramolecular hydrogen bonds O1-H1⋯O2 and O1-H1⋯N1 upon photoexcitation should facilitate the ESIPCCT process of the two title molecules. The scanned potential energy curves and confirmed excited-state transition states for both 3HFN and diCN-HBO show that the proton can be easily transferred from O1 to O2 (N1 for diCN-HBO) through the strengthened intramolecular hydrogen bonds upon photoexcitation to the S1 state.
