Excited states and optical response of a donor–acceptor substituted polyene: A TD-DFT study
نویسندگان
چکیده
Optical properties of polar push–pull chromophore (diphenylpolyene with donor/acceptor terminal substituents) are studied using hybrid time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT). The optical transitions are thoroughly examined. This includes oneand two-photon absorption, and fluorescence, as a function of the underlying density functional, the basis set choice, and the solvent. Calculated excited state properties are found to be strongly dependent on the density functional model used. Hybrid approximations with small fractions of the orbital exchange (e.g. B3LYP) strongly favor zwitterionic-type states with pronounced charge-transfer character. Models with large percentage of orbital exchange (e.g. BHandHLYP) result in neutral-base electronic excitations. 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Using a time-dependent-density functional theory (TD-DFT), Configuration Interaction Singles (CIS) and Zerner’s Intermediate Neglect of Differential Overlap (ZINDO) methods, we have investigated the UV-Visible spectra of one new intramolecular cyclization at before and after intramolecular attack. All structures were optimized at the B3LYP/6-311++G** level while UV-Visible parameters were calcul...

A set of different donor-π-acceptor compounds having dicyanovinyl as the acceptor and aryl moieties as donors were synthesized by Knoevenagel condensation. The UV-visible absorption and fluorescence spectra were investigated in different solvents. The optical band gab energy (Eg) was linearly correlated with the Hammett resonance effect of the donor to reveal that the higher the value of Hammet...

The electronic structure and spectra of 3-formylchromone and some of its derivatives are investigated using TD-DFT/B3LYB/6-311G (d, p) level of theory. The results of calculations show that all the studied compounds 1–6 are planar, as indicated from the dihedral angles. The electronic absorption spectra of the studied compounds are recorded in the UV-Vis region, in both ethanol (as polar solven...
