要旨

In search of white light emitting fluorophores, a hydrazine bridged Schiff base compound, bis(3-pyrrolyl BODIPY), was synthesized by condensing readily available α-formyl 3-pyrrolyl BODIPY with hydrazine hydrate in CH3OH under reflux for 5 h followed by recrystallization. Bis(3-pyrrolyl BODIPY) was thoroughly characterized by HR-MS, 1D and 2D NMR, and X-ray crystallography. The X-ray structure revealed that the 3-pyrrolyl BODIPY units in the dyad were arranged trans to each other with respect to the hydrazine moiety. Bis(3-pyrrolyl BODIPY) showed absorption bands in the region of 390–705 nm and exhibited multiple fluorescence bands in the region of 395–720 nm at different excitation wavelengths. The protonated derivative of bis(3-pyrrolyl BODIPY) generated by the addition of TFA to its CH2Cl2 solution showed significant changes in the optical properties and generated white fluorescence under UV light with specific emission bands observed in blue, green, and red regions, indicating that bis(3-pyrrolyl)BODIPY is a single white light emitting halochromic fluorophore under acidic conditions. DFT and TD-DFT studies justify the structural and electronic properties of the protonated derivative of bis(3-pyrrolyl BODIPY) exhibiting white light emission.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
