A combined experiment and computation study of the fused polycyclic benzimidazole derivatives.

Novel fused polycyclic benzimidazole derivatives were synthesized from dimethyl 4,5-diaminophthalate/dimethyl 3,4-diaminophthalate with aromatic anhydride (a-b) by condensation. The UV-Visible absorption and fluorescence emission spectra of the dyes were studied in solvents of differing polarity. The dyes were characterized by the spectral analysis.

Novel twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) extended fluorescent styryl derivatives containing quinoline electron releasing moiety.

Novel extended fluorescent styryl derivatives were synthesized from (E)-3-(2-cyclopropyl-4-(4-fluorophenyl)quinolin-3-yl)acrylaldehyde containing quinoline ring with 4-fluorophenyl ring at the 4-position as an electron donor and different active methylene compounds as electron acceptors by conventional Knoevenagel condensation reaction. The UV-Visible absorption and fluorescence emission spectra of the dyes were studied in solvents of differing polarity and the compounds showed polarity sensitive emission properties. The dyes were characterized by the spectral analysis.

Photophysical properties of ESIPT inspired fluorescent 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-6-methylimidazo[4,5-f]isoindole-5,7(1H,6H)-dione and its derivative: experimental and DFT based approach.

The excited-state intramolecular proton transfer chromophores 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-6-methylimidazo[4,5-f]isoindole-5,7(1H,6H)-dione and 2-(4-(diethylamino)-2-hydroxyphenyl)-6-methylimidazo[4,5-f]isoindole-5,7(1H,6H)-dione are synthesized from 4,5-diamino-N-methylphthalimide. The photophysical behavior of the synthesized chromophores was studied using UV-visible and fluorescence spectroscopy in the polar and non-polar solvents. The synthesized o-hydroxyphenyl benzimidazole derivatives are fluorescent and very sensitive to the solvent polarity.
