The bulky tetraphenylethylene groups were attached at the periphery of the thieno-[3,4-b]-pyrazine core to form the non-planar molecules, as efficient solid- state emitting materials. The peripheral groups were grafted to the emissive core through either a conjugated acetylene bond, or a non-conjugated ether bond. These molecules exhibit strnng red fluorescence in both dilute solutions and in thin films with large Stokes shifts of over 100 nm. The cyclic voltammetry measurements showed the reversible oxidation and reduction behavior for both compounds. All these properties indicate the two compounds are possible functional materials for use in ontoelectronic devices.展开更多

The phase composition and crystal structure of this material were analyzed with XRD method for its composition and the existence form of Sm atom. We aimed to exactly determine the phase composition of this fluorescence material and the doping position and environment of rare-earth Sm atom in the system because these factors have significant effects on the properties. The analytical results show that the Sm atoms dope in Ca2O26Si6Sm8 lattice in the form of atomic site-occupation in three different space positions with different occupancy rates. Therefore, based on the XRD analytical results, the fluorescence material of Sm doped Si-Ca-Mg system with high performance can be synthesized.展开更多

However, it remains highly challenging to develop a versatile methodology for constructing highly emissive metallacycles with targeted functionalities and therefore soughtafter properties. Herein, we report a general strategy to construct a series of highly emissive perylene diimide-based metallacycles via the self-assembly of perylene diimide-based tetrapyridyl ligand with different dicarboxylic ligands featuring fixed angles and cis-Pt(PEt_(3))_(2)(OTf)_(2). Single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses verify the formation of bowtie-like metallacycles with two triangular cavities. Notably, the fluorescence quantum yields of most assemblies exceed 98%, amongst the highest values for metallacycles.Additionally, such metallacycles exhibit sensitive fluorescence responses toward picric acid with a detection limit of 2.8 × 10^(-6)mol/L. This study not only provides a rational strategy for preparing highly emissive bowtie-shaped metallacycles, but also sheds light on their usage in the detection of picric acid and associated compounds.展开更多

Herein, we introduce tunable near-infrared fluorescent gold nanodots (AuNDs) protected by branched polyethylenimine (PEI) modified by surface segmental attachment of sulfhydryl groups (PEI-SH), abbreviated as PEI-SH-AuNDs, for simultaneous gene delivery and cell imaging. The modified PEI endows the resultant PEI-SH-AuNDs with the following excellent advantages. Sulfhydryl groups of PEI-SH anchor to the surface of AuNDs, and such polycations with amine groups give PEI-SH-AuNDs remarkable stability. The cationic polymer PEI-SH with positive charges enables PEI-SH-AuNDs to perform gene delivery, and the gene transfection efficiency can reach 22.8%. Moreover, the fluorescence of PEI-SH-AuNDs is tunable from visible red light (wavelength 609 nm) to NIR light (wavelength 811 run) via an increase in the size of AuNDs. PEI-SH-AuNDs yielded gene transfection efficiency similar to that of commercial PEI, but showed much lower cytotoxicity and much greater red-shift fluorescence. With excellent photoluminescent properties, such multifunctional fluorescent PEI-SH-AuNDs hold promise in applications to bioimaging and as ideal fluorescent probes for tracking gene transfection behavior.展开更多

文摘A three-dimensional(3D)zinc metal-organic framework(MOF),Zn4(μ4-O)(bcd)3(complex 1)has been synthesized by using 1-[bis(4-carboxylphenyl)methyl]-1,3-diazole(H2 bcd)and Zn(NO3)2·6 H2O under hydrothermal conditions.The structure has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses and further characterized by elemental analyses,IR spectra,powder X-ray diffraction(PXRD)and thermogravimetric analyses(TGA).Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses reveal that complex 1 crystallizes in trigonal system,space group R3 with a=23.0521(6),b=23.0521(6),c=15.3326(6)A,γ=120°,V=7056.2(4)A^3,Z=6,C54H36N6O13Zn4,Mr=1242.37,Dc=1.754 g/cm^3,F(000)=3756,the final R=0.0411 and wR=0.1007 for 2743 observed reflections(I>2σ(I)).Complex 1 consists of a 3D network constructed by four nuclear clusters Zn4(μ4-O)(COO)6 N3 and the bcd2-ligand.Interestingly,1 exhibits strong luminescent emission in solid state at room temperature and could be used as a qualitative fluorescence enhancing sensor for ammonia vapor in air.

文摘Near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent metal nanodots may have significant advantages in biological detection and bioimaging. Herein, we introduce tunable near-infrared fluorescent gold nanodots (AuNDs) protected by branched polyethylenimine (PEI) modified by surface segmental attachment of sulfhydryl groups (PEI-SH), abbreviated as PEI-SH-AuNDs, for simultaneous gene delivery and cell imaging. The modified PEI endows the resultant PEI-SH-AuNDs with the following excellent advantages. Sulfhydryl groups of PEI-SH anchor to the surface of AuNDs, and such polycations with amine groups give PEI-SH-AuNDs remarkable stability. The cationic polymer PEI-SH with positive charges enables PEI-SH-AuNDs to perform gene delivery, and the gene transfection efficiency can reach 22.8%. Moreover, the fluorescence of PEI-SH-AuNDs is tunable from visible red light (wavelength 609 nm) to NIR light (wavelength 811 run) via an increase in the size of AuNDs. PEI-SH-AuNDs yielded gene transfection efficiency similar to that of commercial PEI, but showed much lower cytotoxicity and much greater red-shift fluorescence. With excellent photoluminescent properties, such multifunctional fluorescent PEI-SH-AuNDs hold promise in applications to bioimaging and as ideal fluorescent probes for tracking gene transfection behavior.

文摘Benzo-21-crown-7(B21 C7)is one of the most important crown ethers,which not only shows excellent physicochemical properties but also exhibits promising binding capability with dialkylammonium salts.In this paper,we designed and synthesized a fixed-tetraphenylethylene(FTPE)motif bridged ditopic benzo-21-crown-7 molecule(H).The fixed tetraphenylethylene motif endows H with aggregation induced emission(AIE)prope rty.In the presence of a ditopic dialkylammonium salt guest molecule(G),a fluorescent supramolecular polymer with golden luminescent property could be fabricated.This B21 C7-based host-guest supramolecular polymer with golden fluorescence may have potential application in dynamic luminescent materials.

文摘Four types of unprecedented and chemodivergent reactions betweenα-diketones and alkynylα-diketones have been achieved under the catalysis of phosphine and Br?nsted base,respectively,leading to the rapid construction of four different classes of biologically important but synthetically challenging molecular scaffolds including 2-hydroxyfuran-3(2H)-ones,4-hydroxy-2-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-3-ones,1,3-diaryl cyclobutanes,and 4-(furan-2(3H)-ylidene)cyclopent-2-enones.The formation of the products includes two novel rearrangement processes,and further transformations on the products can be easily achieved to deliver value-added substances such as highly functionalized cyclopentanes.Moreover,the 2-hydroxyfuran-3(2H)-one products display promising photophysical properties such as green luminescence under UV light and aggregation-induced emission effect,showing the practical application value of this work.The great potential ofα-diketones in both synthetic chemistry and material science has been unambiguously demonstrated.

文摘A pure-blue light-emitting material is one of the key components in the preparation of organic lightemitting diode(OLED)displays.Although highefficiency blue OLEDs have been realized in thermally activated delayed fluorescence(TADF)materials,they need to be dispersed into suitable hostmaterials.Hence,exploring efficient nondoped,pure-blue luminous molecules is important.

文摘Under hydrothermal environment,we synthesized lanthanide ions doped sodium yttrium fluoride(NaYF4:Er,Tm@NaYF4:Ce,Tb) luminescent microcrystals via an epitaxial growth technique.The structure and morphology of these microcrystals were examined by SEM,TEM,EDS and XRD measurements.These particles show dual-mode emissions with red upconversion(UC) and green down conversion(DC) as single particles level.The mean length and diameter of these microparticles increase from 0.43 to2.26 μm and from 1.33 to 1.86 μm,respectively.Most interestingly,the photoluminescence properties of NaYF4:Er,Tm@NaYF4:Ce,Tb phosphor crystals are highly dependent on the crystallite size.The microcrystals fluoresce emit dual-mode emissions when they are solid or dispersed in solvents.Benefiting its intensive fluorescence and uniform morphology,these materials hold great potential for security and anti-counterfeiting applications.
