A series of 5,15 push–pull <i>meso</i>-diarylzinc(II) porphyrinates, carrying one or two −COOH
or −COOCH<sub>3</sub> acceptor groups and a −OCH<sub>3</sub> or a −N(CH<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub> donor group, show
in <i>N</i>,<i>N</i>-dimethylformamide and CHCl<sub>3</sub> solutions a negative and solvent-dependent second-order nonlinear-optical
(NLO) response measured by the electric-field-induced second-harmonic
generation (EFISH) technique, different from the structurally related
zinc(II) porphyrinate carrying a −N(CH<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub> donor group and a −NO<sub>2</sub> acceptor group, where a
still solvent-dependent but positive EFISH second-order response was
previously reported. Moreover, when a −N(CH<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub> donor group and a −COOH acceptor group are part of
a sterically hindered 2,12 push–pull β-pyrrolic-substituted
tetraarylzinc(II) porphyrinate, the EFISH response is positive and
solvent-independent. In order to rationalize these rather intriguing
series of observations, EFISH measurements have been integrated by
electronic absorption and IR spectroscopic investigations and by density
functional theory (DFT) and coupled-perturbed DFT theoretical and <sup>1</sup>H pulsed-gradient spin-echo NMR investigations, which prompt
that the significant concentration effects and the strong influence
of the solvent nature on the NLO response are originated by a complex
whole of different aggregation processes induced by the −COOH
group
Assessment of DFT Functionals for QTAIM Topological Analysis of Halogen Bonds with Benzene
Halogen
bonding, a noncovalent interaction between a halogen atom
and a nucleophilic site, is receiving a growing attention in the chemical
community stimulating a large number of theoretical investigations.
The density functional theory (DFT) approach revealed to be one of
the most suitable methods owing to its accuracy and low computational
cost. We report here a detailed analysis of the performance of an
extensive set of DFT functionals in reproducing accurate binding energies
and topological properties for the halogen-bonding interaction of
either NCX or PhX molecules (X = F, Cl, Br, I) with the aromatic system
of benzene in the T-shaped configuration. It was found that the better
performance for both sets of properties is provided by a small subset
of functionals able to take into account, implicitly or explicitly
(by inclusion of an additive pairwise potential), the dispersion contribution,
that is, ωB97X, M06-2X, M11, mPW2PLYP-D, and B2PLYP-D3
Direct Evidence of Torsional Motion in an Aggregation-Induced Emissive Chromophore
The
aggregation induced emission (AIE) behavior shown by organic
chromophores is very interesting for the development of efficient
solid state devices. The restriction of intramolecular rotation is
by far the most frequently assumed mechanism to explain this behavior;
by blocking or reducing this rotation, upon rigidification of the
environment, molecular luminescence is restored. By means of ultrafast
pump–probe spectroscopy combined with density functional theory
(DFT) and time-dependent DFT calculations, we show direct evidence
of intramolecular rotation in a simple push–pull organic chromophore,4-diethylamino-2
benzylidene malonic acid dimethyl ester, possessing AIE properties.
The spectral evolution of the stimulated emission band of the chromophore
in the first 45 ps after photoexcitation is fully consistent with
the presence of a torsional relaxation toward the equilibrium geometry
of the excited state, taking place on time scales that depend on the
solvent viscosity. The structural features of the excited state fully
account for the different photoluminescence efficiencies observed
in solvents with different viscosities
Light-Induced Regiospecific Bromination of <i>meso</i>-Tetra(3,5-di-<i>tert</i>-butylphenyl)Porphyrin on 2,12 β‑Pyrrolic Positions
The
antipodal introduction of two bromine atoms on the 2,12 β-pyrrolic
position of 5,10,15,20-tetra(3,5-di-<i>tert</i>-butylphenyl)porphyrin
was successfully achieved by a light-induced reaction of the substrate
with excess NBS. Complexation with Ni<sup>II</sup> of the major regioisomer
led to good quality crystals, suitable for X-ray structure determination
with unprecedented probability levels. The regiospecific character
of the synthetic procedure and the exactness of the bromine atom position
assignment were thus confirmed, suggesting an unexpected electrophilic
aromatic substitution pathway rather than a free-radical halogenation
process. A QTAIM topological analysis on the DFT-optimized wave function
of the monosubstituted free-base porphyrin intermediate carrying a
bromine atom in C2 β-pyrrolic position confirmed the largest
negative charge for the C12 carbon atom in antipodal position, in
agreement with the proposed electrophilic aromatic substitution mechanism
