In the present study the authors investigated a set of three new zinc(II) phthalocyanines (zinc(II) tetranitrophthalocyanine (ZnTNPc), zinc(II) tetra(phenyloxy)phthalocyanine (ZnTPhOPc) and the tetraiodide salt of zinc(II)tetra(N,N,N-trimethylaminoethyloxy) phthalocyaninate (ZnTTMAEOPcI)) immobilized into Al-MCM-41 prepared via ship-in-a-bottle methodology. The samples were fully characterized by diffuse reflec...
The synthesis and a comprehensive spectroscopic and photophysical study are presented of four alternating binaphthyl−oligothiophene copolymers (DP: 10−15 repeat units) in solution at room and low temperature and in the solid state (thin films). Detailed results are presented on absorption, emission, and triplet−triplet absorption spectra together with all relevant quantum yields (fluorescence, intersystem cross...
The effect of side chain length of [pi]-conjugated poly(9,9-dialkylfluorene)s has been studied in semi-dilute (10 mg/mL) toluene solutions using small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) and 1H and 2H NMR spectroscopies. Under these conditions, SANS data indicate that poly(9,9-dinonylfluorene) and poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene) are dissolved down to the molecule level and appear as elongated one-dimensional chains (leng...
Values of binary mutual diffusion (interdiffusion) coefficients, obtained by using the Taylor dispersion method, for aqueous solutions of γ-cyclodextrin in the concentration range from (0.002 to 0.010) mol·dm−3 and temperatures (298.15 and 310.15) K are reported. From these experimental results, the hydrodynamic radius values for the γ-cyclodextrin are estimated. Also, the measured diffusion coefficients are us...
A comprehensive study has been undertaken of the electronic spectral and photophysical properties of two oligophenyl (BPH and BPHF) and one oligothienyl (BTF) swivel cruciforms involving measurements of absorption, fluorescence, and phosphorescence spectra, quantum yields of fluorescence (phiF), phosphorescence (phiPh) and triplet formation (phiT), lifetimes of fluorescence (τF) and of the triplet state (τT), a...
Films of cellulose acetate containing different concentrations of meso-octamethyl-porphyrinogen (calix[4]pyrrole) were prepared and characterized using UV-vis and FTIR spectroscopy, DSC and SEM. Incorporation of calix[4]pyrrole into cellulose acetate leads to a decrease in the degree of hydrophilicity of the polymeric matrix. However, a slight increase in the percentage of water uptake of the polymer is found w...
The effect of TbCl3 on the aggregation processes of the anionic surfactants sodium decyl sulfate (SDeS) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) has been investigated. Electrical conductivity data, combined with Tb(III) luminescence measurements suggest that the formation of micelles involving TbCl3 and SDS occurs at concentrations below the critical micelle concentration (cmc) of the pure surfactants; the formation of...
The interaction between copper (II) chloride and the carbohydrates sucrose, glucose, and fructose has been studied in aqueous solutions at 298.15 and 310.15 K, using measurements of diffusion coefficients and electrical conductivity. Significant effects on the electrical conductivity were observed in the presence of these carbohydrates, suggesting interactions between them and copper chloride. Support for this ...
A complete spectroscopic and photophysical study of three alternating naphthalene-α-thiophene copolymers was undertaken in solution (room and low temperature) and in the solid state (thin films in a Zeonex matrix). The study comprises absorption, emission, and triplet−triplet spectra together with quantitative measurements of quantum yield (fluorescence, intersystem-crossing, internal conversion, and singlet ox...
We report on the phase behavior of poly(9,9-dihexylfluorene) (PF6), poly(9,9-diheptylfluorene) (PF7), poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene) (PF8), poly(9,9-dinonylfluorene) (PF9), and poly(9,9-didecylfluorene) (PF10) in methylcyclohexane (MCH). After a heating−cooling cycle, in the 10−50 mg/mL concentration range, PF6/MCH, PF7/MCH, PF8/MCH, and PF9/MCH systems were found to be gel-like, while PF10/MCH appears less viscous....
