Popis: A PASE (pot, step, atom, economic) synthetic approach to 5-aryl-6-arylthio-2,2′-bipyridine and 6-arylthio-2,5-diarylpyridine ligands/fluorophores has been reported via SNH in 6-aryl-5H-1,2,4-triazines/aza-Diels-Alder reaction sequence. In this article, the “1,2,4-triazine” methodology was successfully used for the synthesis of C6-thiophenol-substituted (2,2′-bi)pyridines as it is well known that thio-substituted (bi)pyridines and their aza-analogs are of wide practical interest. The photophysical properties of the obtained compounds are studied and compared with those reported earlier for 6-substituted 2,2′-bipyridines. The influence of the nature of substituents in the 6-arylthio(bi)pyridine core on the photophysical properties is discussed. It was observed that the new compounds exhibited promising photophysical properties and could be considered as potential push-pull fluorophores. In addition, they demonstrated greater Stokes shift values compared to the previously described 6-H, 6-arylamino and 6-pentafluoro-2,2′-bipyridines and higher fluorescence quantum yields values compare to pentafluorophenyl-substituted 2,2′-bipyridines. Depending on a nature of (bi)pyridine fluorophore LE (locally excited) and/or ICT (intramolecular charge transfer) state were prevailing in emission spectra.
