Synthesis, photophysical and electrochemical properties of pyridine, pyrazine and triazine-based (D-π-)₂A fluorescent dyes.

ABSTRACT: The donor-acceptor-π-conjugated (D-π-)₂A fluorescent dyes OUY-2, OUK-2 and OUJ-2 with two (diphenylamino)carbazole thiophene units as D (electron-donating group)-π (π-conjugated bridge) moiety and a pyridine, pyrazine or triazine ring as electron-withdrawing group (electron-accepting group, A) have been designed and synthesized. The photophysical and electrochemical properties of the three dyes were investigated by photoabsorption and fluorescence spectroscopy, Lippert-Mataga plots, cyclic voltammetry and density functional theory calculations. The photoabsorption maximum (λ_max,abs) and the fluorescence maximum (λ_max,fl) for the intramolecular charge-transfer characteristic band of the (D-π-)₂A fluorescent dyes show ba
