Abstract
Fluorophore molecule (Z)-3-(anthracen-9-yl)-2-(naphthalen-1-yl)acrylonitrile (ANCN) containing anthracene as donor (D), acrylonitrile as acceptor (A) and naphthalene as donor (D) has been synthesized and characterized. ANCN is crystallized in monoclinic crystal system with P21/c space group. The absorption spectra of the compounds are dominated by intramolecular charge transitions that arise from the anthracene core to the acceptor groups. The compounds display distinct dual and single emission behaviour in different solvent environments. The CIE colour chromaticity diagram shows that the emission of ANCN in dichloromethane solution is in blue region, while neat film in greenish blue and 1% ANCN doped with PMMA in bluish-green region. Frontier molecular orbitals of the compound show that the localization of HOMO can be visualized on the anthracene unit and the LUMO is localized on the acrylonitrile unit. Thus, there is an intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) from HOMO to LUMO.
