Influence of Substituent and Benzoannulation on Photophysical Properties of 1-Benzoylmethyleneisoquinoline Difluoroborates

A series of 1-benzoylmethyleneisoquinoline difluoroborates were synthesized, and their photophysical properties were determined. The effect of the substituent and benzoannulation on their properties was investigated to make a comparison with recently published results focused on related quinolines. The photophysical properties of isoquinoline derivatives differ from those of quinolines, and the most pronounced differences are found for the fluorescence quantum yields. Both experimental and theoretical approaches were used to explain the observed photophysical properties.

Two-photon absorption of BF2-carrying compounds: insights from theory and experiment

This communication presents a structure–property study of a few novel pyridine-based difluoroborate compounds with a N–BF2–O core, which exhibit outstanding fluorescence properties. To exploit their potential for two-photon bioimaging, relationships between the two-photon action cross section and systematic structural modifications have been investigated and unravelled.

Substituent effects on the photophysical properties of fluorescent 2-benzoylmethylenequinoline difluoroboranes: A combined experimental and quantum chemical study

Abstract In this study, we demonstrate a successful synergy between theory and experiment and report on the photophysical properties of a recently synthesized series of substituted 2-benzoylmethylenequinoline difluoroboranes with a view towards the effect of substitution on their properties. In general difluoroboranes are known to have a bright fluorescence but for some analogs the properties are not fully understood. Quantum chemistry methods have been applied in order to explain a complex structure of the absorption and emission spectra and to gain an insight into the charge redistribution upon the excitation of the investigated molecules. We demonstrate that the spectra of this important…
