Dynamics of guest molecules in PHTP inclusion compounds as probed by solid-state NMR and fluorescence spectroscopy.

Partially deuterated 1,4-distyrylbenzene () is included into the pseudohexagonal nanochannels of perhydrotriphenylene (PHTP). The overall and intramolecular mobility of is investigated over a wide temperature range by (13)C, (2)H NMR as well as fluorescence spectroscopy. Simulations of the (2)H NMR spectral shapes reveal an overall wobble motion of in the channels with an amplitude of about 4 degrees at T = 220 K and 10 degrees at T = 410 K. Above T = 320 K the wobble motion is superimposed by localized 180 degrees flips of the terminal phenyl rings with a frequency of 10(6) Hz at T = 340 K. The activation energies of both types of motions are around 40 kJ mol(-1) which imply a strong steri…

Towards highly luminescent phenylene vinylene films

Abstract Fluorescence and electronic absorption spectra, fluorescence decay curves and fluorescence quantum yields of a series of oligo (p-phenylene vinylenes) are investigated in solution, nanoaggregates and vapour-deposited or cast ultrathin films. The film constituting molecules are varied in chain length and modified by electron donating and withdrawing substituents and bulky alkyl spacers. PPP-MO calculations serve to rationalize the resulting spectral changes. In dilute solutions, fluorescence yields of the short oligomers with alkyl or oxyalkyl substituents approach the region of unity. The yields decrease with chain length, reaching a long-chain limit of ΦF=0.4–0.7. Introduction of …

Fluoreszenz‐Untersuchungen an styrylsubstituierten Benzolen

Die Fluoreszenz-Abklingzeiten der stilbenartigen Verbindungen 1 – 4 zeigen, das die mittleren Lebensdauern dieser Molekule im elektronisch angeregten Singulettzustand um rund zwei Zehnerpotenzen hoher sind als bei trans-Stilben selbst. Anhand von UV-Absorptions-und Anregungsspektren wird das auf einen neu gefundenen S1-Zustand zuruckgefuhrt, der einem verbotenen Ubergang S0 S1 auf der langwelligen Seite der intensiven Absorption entspricht. Investigations on the Fluorescence of Styryl-substituted Benzenes Fluorescence decay measurements of the stilbene-like compounds 1 – 4 demonstrate that the average lifetimes of these molecules in the electronically excited singlet state are about 102 tim…
