Popis: | Substitution at tetraaryl cyclopentadienones is known to affect the photophysical properties of the molecules. In a joint experimental and theoretical investigation, a series of differently substituted tetraaryl cyclopentadienones are studied upon so far unprecedented negative solvatochromic effect and, the impact of substituents on the electrochemical behavior. The synthesis of a series of tetraaryl cyclopentadienones comprising different substitution patterns is reported. Their photophysical and electrochemical properties are investigated by UV/Vis spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry as well as by supporting quantum chemical simulations and reveal a distinct effect of substituents on the redox behavior of the molecules as well as the absorption properties of this class of compounds. While electrochemical data display a shift in reduction potential of up to 200 mV between the differently substituted cyclopentadienones, their photophysical investigations in differently polar solvents suggest a negative solvatochromic effect, although protic solvents induce a bathochromic shift. Crystal structure analyses of some derivatives confirm similarity with related cyclopentadienones while providing insight into intermolecular C���H������O and C���H�������� interactions in the solid state. publishedVersion |
