Design of Near-Infrared Dyes Based on π-Conjugation System Extension 2. Theoretical Elucidation of Framework Extended Derivatives of Perylene Chromophore

Abstract: To design near-infrared (NIR) absorbing polyaromatic dyes, we have theoretically elucidated the electronic transition properties of the extended π-conjugation derivatives of 3,4,9,10-perylenetetracarboxylic dianhydride diimide (PTCAI). Framework extension along the molecular long axis, that is, to terrylene (TTCAI) and quaterrylene (QTCAI), causes a large bathochromic shift by the narrowing of the HOMO-LUMO gap. Despite the larger π-conjugation, framework expansion along the molecular short axis, that is, to b… Show more

“…The perylene imide dye displays an intense absorption band at around 530 nm, which corresponds to a p!p* transition, the vibronic bands of which are still visible in the spectrum of trimethylsilylacetylene-perylene imide 2. [51,52] Quaterthiophene exhibits a broad p!p* transition at www.chemeurj.org around 400 nm located in the same region as those of the extended TTF. The absorption bands of exTTF are also attributed to p!p* transitions characterized by significant charge transfer from the dithiolium units to the central aromatic core.…”

“…The chromophoric system of 1 is especially advantageous because the absorption in the VIS is based on only one electronic transition. This was established [27] by measurements of linear dichroism and different quantum-mechanical calculations [83]. The E vector of this transition is located on the connection line of the two imide N-atoms.…”

“…This increase in energy of the HOMOs is attributed to the increasing number of antibonding connections between the naphthalene moieties. [24] The calculated frontier orbitals of coronenebis(dicarbox-A C H T U N G T R E N N U N G imide) show already that CDI cannot be regarded as a simple analogue of rylenebis(dicarboximide)s (Figure 4).…”
