Microcrystals of an organic fluorescent dye grown in the presence of various PAMAM dendrimers: Control of the morphology and optical properties

Abstract: Microcrystals of a fluorescent dye, 4-n-octylamino-7-nitrobenzoxadiazole, were prepared by the reprecipitation method. Poly(amidoamine)dendrimers bearing anionic, cationic or neutral terminating groups were used as additives in the recrystallization medium. They directed the formation of thin plates or spindlelike microcrystals. The UV/vis absorption and emission properties were investigated on the microcrystal suspensions.

“…To do so, linear polymers such as poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) and calf thymus DNA were used. We report their effect upon the reprecipitation of the organic compound already used in previous works [14,15]. The latter is 4-octylamino-7-nitrobenzoxadiazole (1, Fig.…”

“…We recently showed for the first time that the shape and size of organic microcrystals could be nicely tuned by the presence of anionic dendrimers of the poly(amidoamine) series in the reprecipitation medium [14][15][16]. In the present work, we focused on whether dendrimers can be replaced by other macromolecules.…”

“…The compound was dissolved in a hydrophilic organic solvent, and this concentrated solution was poured into a large volume of water, which acted as a counter solvent for the target compound. Precipitation occurs, which can lead to microcrystal dispersion . It has been shown that several factors influence the size and morphology of the microcrystals …”
