Abstract
A broad series of quinoxalinone-based π-conjugated donor-acceptor fluoro- and NLO-phores is characterized by means of Raman spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray analysis supported by quantum chemical computations. Intense Raman spectroscopic markers that allow the differentiation of even closely related structures are identified. The intensities of these bands are shown to be related to the conjugation of the different molecular moieties, and they can provide an estimation of its extent. The intensity redistribution between these markers serves as a source of auxiliary structural information capable of pointing to a distortion of the conjugation or to the influence of aggregation effects in the condensed state. A simple relation between the intensity of the marker and the position and oscillator strength of the lowest-energy electronic absorption band of quinoxalinones allows a linking of the Raman effect with the optical properties of these compounds, which can be used for the rational design of novel species with improved optical characteristics.
