Synthesis and Characterization of New Conjugated Fluorenyl-Porphyrin Dendrimers for Optics
Résumé
A new family of conjugated meso-tetraphenylporphyrin-based dendrimers with four (TPP1, TPP2), eight (TPP3, TPP4, TPP5) and up to sixteen (TPP6) fluorenyl groups has been synthesized and fully characterized. These tetraphenylporphyrin-cored dendrimers present peripheral alkynyl π-conjugated dendrons with fluorenyl termini. The meso-aryl rings of these porphyrins are functionalized either in para- (TPP1, TPP2, and TPP3) or meta-positions (TPP4, TPP5, and TPP6). Their detailed luminescence properties are discussed in reference to two porphyrins lacking fluorenyl dendrons (TPP-H1,2,3 and TPP-H4,5,6 ). A strong dependence of their luminescence quantum yield and lifetime on their structures is stated, their nonlinear optical properties were also discussed
