Luxia Cui, Ami Horioka, Ryoichi Ishimatsu, Masashi Mamada, Chihaya Adachi, Keishiro Tahara, Yu Hoshino, Toshikazu Ono, Advanced Molecular Design for Efficient Multicolor Electrochemiluminescence and Amplified Spontaneous Emission Based on Tetra‐BF2 Complexes, Advanced Optical Materials, 10.1002/adom.202302803, 2024.01, Abstract

Advanced organoboron dyes, incorporating tetra‐boron difluoride (tetra‐BF2) moieties, are developed, demonstrating efficient electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emissions in the green to orange regions through direct ion annihilation. By introducing diverse alkyl modifications in the molecules, luminescence color tuning is achieved via alterations in conjugation and bending angle. A photoluminescence quantum yield of 100% in dilute solutions is successfully achieved. Notably, the introduction of alkyl groups to the methine side stabilizes the radical ionic state, resulting in a high ECL efficiency of 74% through an efficient radical‐ion annihilation pathway. The key factor is that the energy of the annihilation reaction exceeds the S1 energy required for luminescence. Spin density calculations further elucidate the substituent effects on the radical ions of complexes. Moreover, the lasing properties of these materials in the solution‐processed blend films are investigated, revealing a low amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) threshold (Eth) of 6.40 ± 0.24 µJ cm−2, which is notably lower among organic laser materials. This is attributed to their large Stokes shifts and high quantum yield. The excellent ECL and ASE performances establish these materials as a valuable addition to the existing library of organoboron dyes, offering fresh insights into the development of organic solid‐state lasers..

Yoshio Yano, Hidetaka Kasai, Yanyan Zheng, Eiji Nishibori, Yoshio Hisaeda, Toshikazu Ono, Multicomponent Crystals with Competing Intermolecular Interactions: In Situ X-ray Diffraction and Luminescent Features Reveal Multimolecular Assembly of Mechanochemical Conditions., Angewandte Chemie (International ed. in English), 10.1002/anie.202203853, 2022.06, Supramolecular chemistry under mechanochemical conditions has drawn attention because it can induce low-solubility molecules to self-assemble, although most of the reported examples have been limited to two-component systems. We applied mechanochemical synthesis to achieve multimolecular self-assembly in more challenging three-component systems. The produced crystals showed multicolor solid-state luminescence depending on the components when exposed to UV light.  Optical outputs and X-ray diffraction studies were used to examine the self-assembling behavior in greater depth. Using synchrotron radiation, in situ X-ray diffraction permitted direct observation of the milling process, which started the self-assembly process within 1 min. This research emphasizes the importance of multicomponent molecules with optical functions and self-assembling behavior and offers the possibility of developing more complicated multicomponent crystals and organic solid solutions for advanced materials..

1. Toshikazu Ono, Design of Multicomponent Crystals for Novel Photofunction Design, 日本化学会第100春季年会, 2020.03, Individual molecules have their own unique characteristics, but hidden properties can be revealed when they are hybridized with other molecules. Interest in the design,
preparation, characterization, and application of co-crystals or multicomponent crystals has grown in crystal engineering and materials science. Here we report a variety of multicomponent molecular crystals that can show remarkable photoluminescence properties..
2. Toshikazu Ono, Design of Multicomponent Molecular Crystals for Light-emitting Materials and Optical Sensors, 日本化学会第100春季年会, 2020.03, In this presentation, we would like to introduce our recent research on light-emitting materials and optical sensors using multicomponent molecular crystals. The methodology involved designing an appropriate π-conjugated dye molecule (electron-accepting or electron-donating compounds) and various co-formers, and comprehensively prepare inclusion crystals, co-crystals, solvates, and organic salts. The design strategy to prepare crystals includes molecular shape and cooperative intra- and inter-molecular interactions such as hydrogen bonds and charge–transfer interactions..
