1,1′‐Binaphthyl Consisting of Two Donor–π–Acceptor Subunits: A General Skeleton for Temperature‐Dependent Dual Fluorescence

Abstract

Temperature‐dependent dual fluorescence with the  anti‐Kasha's rule is of great interest, but is a very challenging  property to achieve in small organic molecules. The highly sensitive  temperature‐dependent dual fluorescence of  2,2′‐bis(dimethylamino)‐6,6′‐bis(dimesitylboryl)‐1,1′‐binaphthyl (BNMe2‐BNaph),  which essentially consists of two donor–π–acceptor (D‐π‐A) subunits,  inspired the exploration of the importance of its structural features  and the general utility of this molecular design. The reference compound  MBNMe2‐BNaph, which lacks one electron‐accepting Mes2B, is found to show less sensitive temperature‐dependent dual fluorescence, suggesting that the structure of BNMe2‐Bnaph,  consisting of two symmetrical D‐π‐A subunits, is very important for  achieving highly sensitive temperature‐dependent dual fluorescence. In  addition, it is found that another two 1,1′‐binaphthyls, CHONMe2‐BNaph and CNNMe2‐BNaph, which also consist of two D‐π‐A subunits with Mes2B  groups replaced by CHO and CN, respectively, also show  temperature‐dependent dual fluorescence, with the fluorescence changing  in a similar manner to BNMe2‐BNaph, indicating the  general utility of the current molecular design for  temperature‐dependent dual fluorescence. Furthermore, the  temperature‐dependent dual fluorescence behaviors, such as the relative  intensities of the two emission bands, the separation of the two  emissions bands, and the sensitivity of the fluorescence intensity ratio  to temperature, are greatly influence by the electron acceptors.
