Tuning photophysical properties of triphenylamine and aromatic cyano conjugate-based wavelength-shifting compounds by manipulating intramolecular charge transfer strength

, p. 1 - 9 (2013)
A series of triphenylamine-based aromatic cyano compounds have been synthesized as red-emitting fluorophores with large Stokes shifts in both solution (>100 nm in CHCl3) and solid state (>150 nm in film). Intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) properties of the synthesized compounds are examined using UV-Vis absorptions, photoluminescence measurements and solvatochromic studies. Our studies suggest that Stokes shifts of these compounds can be fine-tuned by manipulating the ICT strength between donor and acceptor with various electronic donating groups, and the largest Stokes shifts are typically associated with compounds that have the strong ICT characters. The observed spectroscopic properties of the compounds are consistent with theoretical calculations using density function theory (DFT) or time-dependent density function theory (TD-DFT). The calculations suggest that the ICT occurs from localized HOMO to localized LUMO with magnitudes of 60-80%. The relative quantum yields of these fluorophores in solution are various and highly solvent dependent. In solid state, the quantum yields of the compounds are significantly increased and some can reach to 0.40.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has long been shown to be a powerful therapeutic modality for cancer. However, PDT is undiversified and has become stereotyped in recent years. Exploration of distinctive PDT methods is thus highly in demand but remains a severe challenge. Herein, an unprecedented 1+1+1>3 synergistic strategy is proposed and validated for the first time. Three homologous luminogens with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) characteristics were rationally designed based on a simple backbone. Through slight structural tuning, these far-red/near-infrared AIE luminogens are capable of specifically anchoring to mitochondria, cell membrane, and lysosome, and effectively generating reactive oxygen species (ROS). Notably, biological studies demonstrated combined usage of three AIE photosensitizers gives multiple ROS sources simultaneously derived from several organelles, which gives superior therapeutic effect than that from a single organelle at the same photosensitizers concentration. This strategy is conceptually and operationally simple, providing an innovative approach and renewed awareness of improving therapeutic effect through three-pronged PDT.
