Implication

Photophysical analysis reveals orientation-dependent charge transfer in regioisomeric triphenylamine dyes, indicating structural alignment governs ultrafast excited-state dynamics.

Key Points

To determine how matched versus mismatched regioisomeric orientations of benzothiazole units alter the linear photophysics and ultrafast excited-state dynamics of dipolar and octupolar triphenylamine chromophores.
Synthesized and compared dipolar (D-π-A-A) and octupolar (D-(π-A-A)3) dye architectures containing triphenylamine cores, ethynylene linkers, and benzothiazole units.
Assessed photophysical parameters and ultrafast excited-state charge transfer dynamics with and without an auxiliary carbaldehyde acceptor in matched and mismatched geometries.
Mismatched geometries in dyes without an auxiliary carbaldehyde acceptor produced stronger fluorescence solvatochromism and faster excited-state decay compared to matched counterparts.
Attachment of the auxiliary carbaldehyde acceptor reversed this trend, significantly enhancing intramolecular charge transfer and accelerating excited-state dynamics in the matched geometry.
