This synthesis involves the crosslinking of polyethyleneimine (PEI) with glutaraldehyde (GA), followed by <i>in situ</i> polymerization of an acrylic acid-based monomer. The nanoparticles are formed through self-assembly driven by <i>in situ</i> electrostatic complexation, resulting in unique photoluminescence properties. This process involves the negatively charged polymer, formed via graft and homo-polymerization, interacting with the pre-existing positively charged PEI. The nanoparticles consist solely of heteroatomic bonds like C−O, C−N, C=O, and C=N. The restriction of vibrational and rotational relaxation of these bonds within the nanoscale poly-ionic complex enhances their photoluminescence properties. For example, glutaraldehyde-crosslinked polyethyleneimine/poly(methacrylic acid) (gPEI/PMAA) nanoparticles produced by this method demonstrate outstanding properties including a narrow size distribution with an average diameter of 35 nm, excitation-dependent fluorescence with a green emission peak at 527 nm when excited at 480 nm, and a high quantum yield of up to 23.6 % (±1.2 %). The green fluorescence property of the nanoparticles can be used in the generation of white LED light through incorporating them with silicone and coating them onto a blue light LED chip. This study represents a significant improvement in the fluorescence properties of PEI-based materials and opens up new possibilities for their applications in various fields.</p>","PeriodicalId":10108,"journal":{"name":"ChemPhotoChem","volume":"9 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cptc.202400149","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143380042","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such specific solvatochromism is termed organohalogenochromism (OHC), which has been recently recognized as a photophysical phenomenon. However, few studies have been carried out on the elucidation of OHC and thus there is a limited insight into the mechanism for expression of OHC, although the phenomenon not only is of a great scientific interest in photochemistry, photophysics, analytical chemistry, and synthetic organic chemistry but also has great potential for development of colorimetric detection technique for organohalogen compounds; this technique is expected to be facile operation and simple analysis with sufficient accuracy, high sensitivity, and fast response, and thus allows visualization and real-time monitoring for toxic volatile organohalogen compounds (VOHCs). In this Concept, we first review OHC of dyes which have been reported so far. Second, the elucidation of OHC based on the interactions between dye and organohalogen molecules are discussed. In particular, we propose the explanation for a pronounced OHC of donor-π-acceptor-type cationic dye from the viewpoint of halogen bond (XB) between halogenated solvents and counter anion of cationic dye.

However, the mechanofluorochromic (MFC) response was unremarkable upon applying external mechanical stress. Even though some show MFC features, there was no optical shift under ambient light. In this paper, we developed a novel C₃-symmetric molecule, TAC₃, containing the TG core linked with conformationally twisted thiophene-linked anthracenyl terminals. Three conformationally deformed hands in TAC₃ respond against external mechanical stimuli with a redshifted absorption and emission, easily detectable through the naked eye. Although MFC features were reported before for such C₃-symmetric molecules, the change in absorbance was not identified. In addition, TAC₃ could selectively detect Pd²⁺ through extreme emission quenching (green to black). The mechanochromism and sensing outcomes are elucidated by the experimental and theoretical support. Compared to the previous reports, the notable 2 : 3 (metal: ligand) binding due to geometric restriction creating a specific pocket size for Pd⁺² is unusual for this system.

When these chromophores are bonded directly to photo-switchable molecules they can function as antenna systems to indirectly induce photochemical transformations in isomerizable groups after energy transfer. Recently, we developed an antenna–molecular switch system based on a pyrrolo–pyrrole two-photon active chromophore. When this antenna section is functionalized with symmetrically situated azo-sections as N,N’-pyrrolic-substituents, these azo molecular switches can be efficiently transformed from their <i>E</i> to their <i>Z</i> isomers after non-linear light absorption by the antenna, followed by indirect excitation of the azo-sections. In this contribution we present a case-study of one of these systems through femtosecond-resolved fluorescence to observe the dynamics involved in the excitation and relaxation steps within the antenna section, as well as the energy transfer pathways. By time-resolving the emission signals we observed that the energy transfer can occur in parallel with the relaxation within the first singlet vibronic states localized at the pyrrolo–pyrrole antenna. In fact, the antenna-to-azo section energy transfer shows a biphasic nature. At early times, during the relaxation within the antenna, there is an initial population of azo-section excited molecules. In addition, after the system has evolved to the fully relaxed S₁ state at the antenna section, the energy transfer has components related to thermal fluctuations which increase the couplings with the receiver states at the azo-switches giving transfer rates of the order of 10¹⁰ s⁻¹ at room temperature. The characterization of these relaxation and energy transfer steps, as well as the role of the solvent in these processes, gives insights for the development of future molecules with indirect two-photon isomerization properties using this kind of pull-push-pull two-photon active antenna. Due to their two-photon reactive properties, these systems can have applications in schemes where highly localized photo-isomerization is required.</p>","PeriodicalId":10108,"journal":{"name":"ChemPhotoChem","volume":"9 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143117845","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
