We have presented the synthesis and characterization of three new bromo substituted stilbene derivatives, p-3,4,5-trimethoxy-p′- 2,3,4,5,6-pentabromostilbene （C1）, p-N,N-dimethylamino-p′-2,3,4,5,6-pentabromostilbe...We have presented the synthesis and characterization of three new bromo substituted stilbene derivatives, p-3,4,5-trimethoxy-p′- 2,3,4,5,6-pentabromostilbene （C1）, p-N,N-dimethylamino-p′-2,3,4,5,6-pentabromostilbene （C2） and p-N,N-diphenylamino-p′- 2,3,4,5,6-pentabromostilbene （C3） in this letter. The UV/vis absorption and photoluminescence were investigated in various solvents. The maximal absorption wavelength of C1 exhibited blue-shift to those of C2 and C3 in different solvents. No florescence emission could be detected for these compounds at room temperature. Singlet oxygen could be efficiently produced with these sensitizers under near-ultraviolet and visible light irradiation.展开更多

The fluorescence quantum yields (ΦF) and Stern-Volmer′s constant (KSV) for ZnTBPPc fluorescence quenching by benzoquinone in all the solutions followed a semi-empirical law that depends only on the solvent viscosity. ΦF values vary between 0.08 in tetrahydrofuran (THF) and 0.14 in dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO). Triplet quantum yields (ΦT) and lifetimes (τT) also exhibit clear solvent viscosity dependence with the values being higher in the most viscous solvents. The interaction of the ZnTBPPc triplet state with oxygen was found to be diffusion- controlled, but higher rate constants were observed in low-viscosity solvents like THF and toluene. Absolute values of singlet oxygen quantum yields (ΦΔ) were determined, and the values are comparable in all the solvents, which is attributed to the proximity of the ZnTBPPc triplet energies in different solvents.展开更多

It was found that the quantum yield of singlet oxygen produced via the photosensi- tization of EA was 0.98 with HB (0.84) as a reference. Furthermore, the semiquinone anion could be pro- duced via photosensitization of EA in oxygen-free solution. Besides, taking advantage of nanosecond time-resolved spectral technique, the transient triplet absorption spectra and the lifetime of EA in cyclo- hexane were determined by the use of the ground- state depletion method.展开更多
