Near-infrared emissive bacteriochlorin-diketopyrrolopyrrole triads: Synthesis and photophysical properties
2019
International audience; The synthesis of unprecedented energy transfer triads containing a near-infrared (NIR) emissive bacteriochlorin subunit and two diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) moieties linked to each other via ethynyl or zero-carbon spacers is presented. Their optical and fluorescence properties were determined in CHCl3 and toluene. These photophysical measurements highlight the ability of DPP scaffold to act as an effective energy donor, which once excited in the range 450-550 nm resulting nearly exclusively NIR emission of hydroporphyrin (ETE > 96%). Since DPP dyes are valuable structurally tunable fluorophores that may be used in the construction of high-performance multicomponent pho…
Bacteriochlorin-diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) hybrids : New near-infrared fluorophores for biosensing/bioimaging applications
2020
Near-infrared (700-900 nm) absorbing and emitting organic-based fluorophores are valuable tools for bioimaging applications. Indeed, biological component absorption, diffusion and autofluorescence are quite low in this region (known as the first therapeutic window NIR-I), making tissues relatively transparent to these long wavelengths. Bacteriochlorins are porphyrins derivatives in which two double bonds are reduced. These molecules display a strong absorption and emission within NIR-I spectral range. DPPs are structurally simpler fluorophores displaying very interesting properties. They have high fluorescence quantum yields, are highly (photo)chemically and thermally stable. The aim of thi…
Coordination-Induced Spin-State Switching with Nickel Chlorin and Nickel Isobacteriochlorin
2015
We present the first coordination-induced spin-state switching with nickel chlorin and nickel isobacteriochlorin. The spin-state switching was monitored by UV-vis spectroscopy and NMR titration experiments. The association constants (K1 and K2) and thermodynamic parameters (ΔH and ΔS) of the coordination of pyridine were determined. The first X-ray analyses of a paramagnetic nickel chlorin and a nickel isobacteriochlorin provide further information about the structure of the octahedral complexes. Nickel chlorin and even more pronounced nickel isobacteriochlorin exhibit stronger coordination of axial ligands compared to the corresponding nickel porphyrin and thus provide the basis for more e…
