n-n-dimethylalanine and fluorene

The photophysical processes of 9,9-bis[4'-[2''-phenyl-5''-(3'''-(methacryl-amido)phenyl)]-1'',3'',4''-oxadiazolylphenyl]fluorene (F-MAOP) formed by Heck reaction of 9,9-bis(4'-iodophenyl)fluorene (F-IP) and 2-phenyl-5-[3'-(methacrylamido)phenyl]-1,3,4-oxadiazole (OXD) have been carefully studied. The results show that the compound emits blue and blue-violet light and the emission spectra exhibit obvious solvent effect. With the increase of polarity of solvents, the fluorescence spectra change obviously and appear blue shift at room temperature. In addition, the light-emitting can be quenched by both electron donor (N,N-dimethylaniline, DMA) and electron acceptor (C60). When N,N-dimethylaniline is gradually added into the solution of F-MAOP, the emission intensities of fluorescence are unusually increased. But when the concentration of DMA beyond a certain scope, the emission intensities of fluorescence are gradually decreased. The dimolecular exciplex between F-MAOP and C60 are formed and the quenching effect follows the Stern-Volmer equation. Moreover, interaction between F-MAOP and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is also studied by fluorescent quenching.
