Abstract
In the present work, four fluorescent organoboron esters have been prepared by a fast self-assembly-assisted synthesis, achieved in short reaction time. The resulting organoboron esters were elucidated by 1H and 11B NMR, as well as mass spectrometry, and for 3 was further confirmed by single-crystal diffraction method, where the solved crystal structure shows a tetracoordinate boron atom with a distorted tetrahedral geometry. The photophysical behavior of all derivatives was analyzed in a fresh solution, demonstrating the presence of negative solvatochromism. Additionally, phenylboronic acid derivative 2, featuring tert‑butyl groups, demonstrated superior photostability compared to their derivatives. Mass spectrometry analysis also indicated energetic stability of the molecular ion of compound 4. Notably, compound 2 exhibited good solubility, high photostability, thermal decomposition above 200 °C and adequate emissive properties, making it a promising fluorescent dye for fuel marking applications. Its exceptional photostability, positions molecule 2 as a promising candidate for fuel marker applications.
期刊介绍:
Materials Research Bulletin is an international journal reporting high-impact research on processing-structure-property relationships in functional materials and nanomaterials with interesting electronic, magnetic, optical, thermal, mechanical or catalytic properties. Papers purely on thermodynamics or theoretical calculations (e.g., density functional theory) do not fall within the scope of the journal unless they also demonstrate a clear link to physical properties. Topics covered include functional materials (e.g., dielectrics, pyroelectrics, piezoelectrics, ferroelectrics, relaxors, thermoelectrics, etc.); electrochemistry and solid-state ionics (e.g., photovoltaics, batteries, sensors, and fuel cells); nanomaterials, graphene, and nanocomposites; luminescence and photocatalysis; crystal-structure and defect-structure analysis; novel electronics; non-crystalline solids; flexible electronics; protein-material interactions; and polymeric ion-exchange membranes.
