Abstract
Several fluorene derivatives exhibit excited-state reactivity and relaxation dynamics that remain to be understood fully. We report here the spectral relaxation dynamics of two fluorene derivatives to evaluate the role of structural modification in the intramolecular relaxation dynamics and intermolecular interactions that characterize this family of chromophores. We have examined the time-resolved spectral relaxation dynamics of two compounds, NCy-FR0 and MK-FR0, in protic and aprotic solvents using steady-state and time-resolved emission spectroscopy and quantum chemical computations. Both compounds exhibit spectral relaxation characteristics similar to those seen in FR0, indicating that hydrogen bonding interactions between the chromophore and solvent protons play a significant role in determining the relaxation pathways available to three excited electronic states.
