One-Pot Synthesis and Photophysical Studies of Dihydropyrimidinone-Based Dyes: Novel Violet-Blue Light Emitting Fluorophores

3-(4-Formylphenyl)-triazole functionalized coumarins as violet-blue luminophores and n-type semiconductors: synthesis, photophysical, electrochemical and thermal properties

3-(4-Formylphenyl)-triazole-coumarin hybrid chromophores (FPhTCs) were synthesized in good yields, using a click chemistry protocol, and were also structurally characterized. Their photophysical, electrochemical and thermal properties were measured demonstrating that FPhTCs are luminescent in the blue-violet region of the electromagnetic spectrum, both in solution and the solid state. They showed an electrochemical band-gap values of 2.79 ± 0.08 eV, resistivity values between 104 and 105 Ω cm and are thermally stable up to 225 °C, properties that promise FPhTCs as good candidates for optoelectronic or imaging applications. Their solution and solid state photoluminescent properties are discussed and supported by theoretical calculations.

Hybrid 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2-(thi)ones as dual-functional bioactive molecules: fluorescent probes and cytotoxic agents to cancer cells

A series of new hybrid fluorescent Biginelli compounds, including a Monastrol derivative, were designed and synthesized with good yields.
