ABSTRACT
The UV-vis electronic absorption and fluorescence emission properties of 8-halogenated (Cl, Br, I) difluoroboron dipyrrin (or 8-haloBODIPY) dyes and their 8-(C, N, O, S) substituted analogues are reported. The nature of the meso-substituent has a significant influence on the spectral band positions, the fluorescence quantum yields, and lifetimes. As a function of the solvent, the spectral maxima of all the investigated dyes are located within a limited wavelength range. The spectra of 8-haloBODIPYs display the narrow absorption and fluorescence emission bands and the generally quite small Stokes shifts characteristic of classic difluoroboron dipyrrins. Conversely, fluorophores with 8-phenylamino (7), 8-benzylamino (8), 8-methoxy (9), and 8-phenoxy (10) groups emit in the blue range of the visible spectrum and generally have larger Stokes shifts than common BODIPYs, whereas 8-(2-phenylethynyl)BODIPY (6) has red-shifted spectra compared to ordinary BODIPY dyes. Fluorescence lifetimes for 6, 8, and 10 have been measured for a large set of solvents and the solvent effect on their absorption and emission maxima has been analyzed using the generalized Catalán solvent scales. Restricted rotation about the C8-N bond in 7 and 8 has been observed via temperature dependent (1)H NMR spectroscopy, whereas for 10 the rotation about the C8-O bond is not hindered. The crystal structure of 8 demonstrates that the short C8-N bond has a significant double character and that this N atom exhibits a trigonal planar geometry. The crystal structure of 10 shows a short C8-O bond and an intramolecular C-H···π interaction. Quantum-chemical calculations have been performed to assess the effect of the meso-substituent on the spectroscopic properties.
