Fluorescence and Dole Burning Depletion Spectra of Jet-Cooled 1-(1-Anthryl)-3-(M-(N,N-Dimethylamino)Phenyl)Propanes and 1-(9-Anthryl)-3-(M-(N,N-Dimethylamino)Phenyl)Propanes - Multiconformations and Exciplex Formation
Fluorescence excitation and hole burning depletion spectra of jet-cooled bichromophoric compounds, 1-(9- and 1-anthryl)-3-(m-(N,N-dimethylamino)phenyl)propanes (9-An-m-DMA and 1-An-m-DMA), indicate that two isomeric conformations of these compounds are involved in the ground state. Two distinct conformers (9a and 9b) of 9-An-m-DMA exhibit roughly equal intensity of excitation spectra, while one conformer is major (1a) and another is minor (1b) in 1-An-m-DMA. These ground-state conformers exhibit remarkably different excess vibrational energy (Delta E) dependence of the intramolecular charge transfer in the singlet excited state : the Delta E dependence of the exciplex fluorescence and decay times are considerably different between the two conformations. The facts seem attributable to the torsional conformation of the m-(N,N-dimethylamino)phenyl moiety concerning the trimethylene (An-C-1-C-2-C-3-m-DMA) of these compounds in the ground state, from which the geometrical transformations take place to the favorable conformers’ for the intramolecular charge transfer.
