4-(Diethylamino)salicylaldehyde-based twin compounds as NLO-active materials

2016

Abstract 4-(Diethylamino)salicylaldehyde-based twin compounds containing 1,3-indandione and 1,3-bisdicianovinylindane moieties were synthesized and their thermal, optical, photophysical, electrochemical, photoelectrical and nonlinear optical properties were studied. The synthesized compounds form glasses with the glass transition temperatures ranging from 79 to 103 °C. Photoluminescence spectra of the solutions of compounds exhibited red-shifts with the increase of the solvent polarity that was caused by the positive solvatochromic effect. The linear dependencies between the position of the photoluminescence maxima of compounds and the empirical parameter E T (30) of the different solvents …
