Abstract

New D–π–A chromophores containing terminal electron-donating triphenylamine and electron-withdrawing 2-(5,5-dimethylcyclohex-2-en-1-ylidene)propanedinitrile (DCM-1) or 2-(6-methyl-4H-pyran-4-ylidene)propanedinitrile (DCM-2) fragments separated by π-conjugated 1,2-di(thiophen-2-yl)ethene spacer have been synthesized. Comparison of the optical and electrochemical properties of the synthesized compounds has shown that the band gap increases in going from DCM-1 to DCM-2 from 1.83 to 2.15 eV. Apart from the narrow band gap, these compounds are characterized by a large Stokes shift (>100 nm) and high absorbance (25000–65000 L·mol–1·cm–1) in the visible region (λ 420–660 nm); therefore, they can be regarded as potential light storage materials and labels and probes for biomedical studies.
