ABSTRACT
In this work, the excited-state dynamics including intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) and the redshift of C540A have been investigated in a series of solvents on the basis of the Kamlet-Taft solvatochromic parameters (π*, α, ß) using femtosecond transient absorption spectra and systematic theoretical calculation. We demonstrate that the redshift of the emission peak has a linear relationship with the α and π* scales and the effect of the π* scale is slightly stronger than that of the α scale. Meanwhile, the ICT rates can be suggested as relevant to not only the α scale but also the π* scale. Additionally, C540A-AN has proved that the excited state molecules have a unique inactivation mechanism because of the dark feature of the S1 (CT) state. The valuable mechanistic information gleaned from the excited-state dynamics by the experimental and theoretical study would facilitate the design of organic materials for prospective applications in photochemistry and photobiology.
