A series of dendritic ammonium salts have been designed and synthesized. Subsequently, they were used to construct the corresponding [2]rotaxanes by a template-directed clipping approach. Unusually, two unsymmetrical dendritic [2]rotaxanes containing fluorophore (pyrene units) were also obtained; their optical properties, such as UV/vis absorption and fluorescence, were measured. The results indicate that these two rotaxanes possess stronger intermolecular interaction in the solid state than in solution. As a result, solutions of high concentration readily formed the excimer. These special rotaxanes might be applied in dynamic fluorescence-reponsive materials, and the rotaxane structure will also be used as a strategy to adjust the aggregated behaviors of fluorescent molecules.
设计并合成了一系列树枝状铵盐。随后,通过模板导向的剪裁方法,用它们构建了相应的[2]轮烷。不同寻常的是,还得到了两种含荧光团(芘单元)的不对称树枝状[2]轮烷;测量了它们的光学性质,如紫外/可见吸收和荧光。结果表明,这两种轮烷在固态下比在溶液中具有更强的分子间相互作用。因此,高浓度溶液很容易形成准分子。这些特殊的轮烷可能应用于动态荧光响应材料,并且轮烷结构也将作为一种策略来调节荧光分子的聚集行为。
