Article Abstract
Starting from 3-alkoxy-2-aryl-substituted pyrroles and aromatic aldehydes, a collection of new dipyrrins was prepared. Under the standard conditions of Treibs, these were converted into the corresponding boron dipyrrins (BODIPYs). Compounds of this type with alkoxy groups at C-3 position of both pyrrole subunits are new and hence the photophysical properties of this collection of novel dipyrrins and BODIPY dyes were investigated. The dipyrrins show absorption maxima up to 596 nm and emissions of up to 677 nm. For the BODIPY series a remarkable effect of the alkoxy groups was identified, resulting in red shifts for absorptions and emissions. The compound substituted with two 2-thien-2-yl groups and a meso-C F substituent shows an absorption maximum at 725 nm and emits at 754 nm and thus is a new representative of a near-IR BODIPY dye related to certain aza-BODIPYs. Our results demonstrate the influence of the alkoxy groups on the spectroscopic data and reveal the potential of 3-alkoxy-2-aryl-substituted pyrroles for the design of new fluorophores.

The high potential of non-covalent arene-fluoroarene intermolecular interactions in the design of liquid crystals lies in their ability to strongly promote self-assembly, improve the order and stability of the supramolecular mesophases, and enable tuneability of the optical and electronic properties, which can potentially be exploited for advanced applications in display technologies, photonic devices, sensors, and organic electronics. We recently successfully reported the straightforward synthesis of several mesogens containing four lateral aliphatic chains and derived from the classical triphenylene core self-assembling in columnar mesophases based on this paradigm. These mesogenic compounds were simply obtained in good yields by the nucleophilic substitution (SFAr) of various types of commercially available fluoroarenes with the electrophilic organolithium derivatives 2,2'-dilithio-4,4',5,5'-tetraalkoxy-1,1'-biphenyl (2Li- ).

Cyanostilbene (CS)-related conjugated groups can be considered as dual functional groups of AIEgen and mesogen to construct photoluminescent liquid crystals, and it is essential to study the relationship between their molecular structures and compound properties systematically. In this paper, we designed and synthesized linear and bent-shaped CS derivatives containing ester- and amide-connecting groups and different substituted numbers of alkoxy tails. Their phase behaviors and photophysical properties were investigated in depth.

Previous studies have demonstrated that the donor (D)-acceptor (A) structure enables conjugated polymers (CPs) to effectively inhibit charge recombination, reduce exciton binding energy to a minimum, and broaden the light absorption spectrum, ultimately enhancing photocatalytic activity. Besides, side chain engineering is an effective approach to enhance photocatalytic performance by regulating surface chemistry and energy band structure of CPs. Herein, three D-A type CPs, namely TPD-T, TPD-MOT and TPD-DOT, were designed and synthesized using thieno[3,4-c]pyrrole-4,6-dione (TPD) as A units and thiophene with different alkyl/alkoxy groups side chain (as 3-octylthiophene (T), 3-methoxythiophene (MOT) and 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (DOT)) as D units, via an atom- and step-economic CH/CH cross-coupling polycondensation.

Nickel/photoredox dual catalyzed cross-coupling of aryl halides with alkylboron compounds is one of the effective methodologies for the construction of C(sp)-C(sp) bonds. Although elegant results have been achieved by using alkyl trifluoroborates as alkyl radical precursors, the generation of alkyl radicals from readily available alkyl boronic esters is still limited due to their high oxidation potential. We disclosed here that activation of alkyl boronic esters by MeOLi is highly efficient for the generation of alkyl radicals under photocatalysis conditions.

The research and development of push-pull tetraene chromophores (PPT-phores) have contributed greatly to the field of organic electro-optic (EO) materials and devices since the inauguration of CLD-1 in 2001. This study is thus a systematic contribution to synthesize and characterize a series of centro-arylated PPT-phores based on strong electron-donating tetrahydroquinolinyl groups and variable strong electron-accepting tricyanofuran derivatives. In particular, we report the crystallographic data to show various packing modes of these PPT-phores with detailed information about bond length alternation and intermolecular interactions, the optical absorption edges of guest-host polymers by the Tauc model, and the anisotropy and dispersion of Pockels tensors for the poled polymers by attenuated total reflection spectroscopy.
