Exciton coupling between two or more chromophores in a specific environment is a key mechanism associated with color tuning and modulation of absorption energies. This concept is well exemplified by natural photosynthetic proteins, and can also be achieved in synthetic nucleic acid nanostructures. Here we report the coupling of barbituric acid merocyanine (BAM) nucleoside analogues and show that exciton coupling can be tuned by the double helix conformation. BAM is a nucleobase mimic that was incorporated in the phosphodiester backbone of RNA, DNA and GNA oligonucleotides. Duplexes with different backbone constitutions and geometries afforded different mutual dye arrangements, leading to distinct optical signatures due to competing modes of chromophore organization via electrostatic, dipolar, - stacking and hydrogen-bonding interactions. The realized supramolecular motifs include hydrogenbonded BAM–adenine base pairs and antiparallel as well as rotationally stacked BAM dimer aggregates with distinct absorption, CD and fluorescence properties.
Nucleic acids are not only one of the most important classes of macromolecules in biochemistry but also a promising platform for the defined arrangement of chromophores. Thanks to their precise organization by directional polar and hydrophobic interactions, oligonucleotides can be exploited as suitable templates for multichromophore assemblies with predictable properties. To expand the toolbox of emissive, base pairing nucleobase analogs several barbituric acid merocyanine (BAM) chromophores with tunable spectroscopic properties were synthesized and incorporated into RNA, DNA and glycol nucleic acid (GNA) oligonucleotides. A multitude of duplexes containing up to ten BAM chromophores was obtained and analysis by spectroscopic methods revealed the presence of dipolarly coupled merocyanine aggregates with properties
strongly dependent on the chromophore orientation toward each other and the backbone conformation. These characteristics were exploited for various applications such as FRET pair formation and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) experiments. The observed formation of higher-order aggregates implies future applications of these new oligonucleotide-chromophore systems as light-harvesting DNA nanomaterials. Besides oligonucleotide templated covalent assembly of chromophores also non-covalent nucleic acid-chromophore complexes are a broad field of research. Among these, fluorogenic RNA aptamers are of special interest with the most versatile ones based on derivatives of the GFP chromophore hydroxybenzylidene imidazolone (HBI). Therefore, new HBI-derived chromophores with an expanded conjugated system and an additional exocyclic amino group for an enhanced binding affinity were synthesized and analyzed in complex with the Chili aptamer. Among these, structurally new fluorogenes with strong fluorescence activation upon binding to Chili were identified which are promising for further derivatization and application as color-switching sensor devices for example.
Within this thesis, synthetic strategies for self-assembled organic cage compounds have been developed that allow for both stimuli-responsive control over assembly/disassembly processes and spatial control over functionalization. To purposefully operate the reversible assembly of organic cages, boron-nitrogen dative bonds have been exploited for the formation of a well-defined, discrete bipyramidal organic assembly in solution. Thermodynamic association equilibria for cage formation have been investigated by Isothermal Titration Calorimetry (ITC). Temperature-dependent NMR studies revealed a reversible cage opening upon heating and quantitative reassembly upon cooling. For the spatial functionalization of organic cages, two divergent molecular building units have been designed and synthesized, namely tribenzotriquinacene derivatives possessing a terminal alkyne moiety at the apical position and a meta-diboronic acid having a pyridyl group at the 2-position. Facile access to a variety of apically functionalized tribenzotriquinacenes has been illustrated by post-synthetic modifications at the terminal alkyne group by Sonogashira cross-coupling and azide-alkyne click reactions. Finally, these apically functionalized tribenzotriquinacene building blocks have been implemented into boronate ester-based organic cage compounds showing modular exohedral functionalities.
Synthesis and Characterization of an Oligo(Phenylene Ethynylene)-Based Perylene Bisimide Foldamer
(2010)
The present work is part of the currently only rudimentary understanding of the structure-property relationships in the self-assembly of pi-conjugated organic molecules. Such structures may reveal favorable photophysical and semiconducting properties due to the weak non-covalent pi-pi interactions between the monomer units. The specific mutual orientation of the dyes is known to evoke individual functional properties for the condensed matter, however, the related electronic processes are still not well-understood and further enhancements of functional properties are seldom triggered by rational design. The pi-pi self-assembly structures of perylene bisimide (PBI) dyes are promising, versatile materials for organic electronic devices and have been elected for this thesis as an archetype aggregate system to investigate the dye-dye interactions in more detail. In cooperation with experts in the field of spectroscopy and theory the development of reliable routines towards a better understanding of the origins of the functional properties may be feasible, and, on a longer time-line, such knowledge may enable optimization of functional organic materials. Having designed such structures entailed the challenge of developing feasible synthesis strategies, and to actually generate the targeted molecules by synthesis. Several synthesis approaches were conducted until finally a perylene bisimide foldamer was obtained based on a Sonogashira co-polymerization reaction. After purification and enrichment of the larger-sized species by means of semi-preparative gel permeation chromatography (GPC) the average size of an octamer (8500 Da) species was determined by analytical GPC. The low polydispersity index (PD) of 1.1 is indicative of a sharp size distribution of the oligomers. This average size was confirmed by performing diffusion ordered NMR spectroscopy (DOSY). Furthermore, MALDI-TOF mass analysis substantiated the structural integrity of the co-polymerization product. Solvent-dependent UV/vis spectroscopic investigations demonstrated that intramolecular PBI aggregates are reversibly formed, indicating that this oligomer is able to fold and unfold in the intended manner upon changing external conditions. In the unfolded states, the PBI moieties are closely arranged due to the short OPE bridges (< 2.4 nm), which is expressed by an exciton coupling interaction of the dyes and therefore the characteristic monomer absorption pattern of the PBI chromophore cannot be obtained in the unfolded states. More interestingly, the folded state revealed a pronounced aggregate spectrum of the PBIs, however, striking differences in the shape of the absorption spectrum compared to our previously investigated PBI self-assembly were obtained.

The 130 chemical shifts were determined of the carbons in 12 cycloheptanes, 21 cycloheptanols, and 8 cycloheptanones. In some cyc1oheptanols and cyc1oheptanones, the assignments have been obtained unambiguously by the synthesis of deuterated derivatives and the use of paramagnetic-shift reagents. Substituent effects for the different types of groups have been calculated. The most informative data about the cyc10heptane conformations were provided by the relatively well understood I' effects. The results are generally in,good agreement with predictions based on the twist-chair form, which has been predicted by Hendrickson to be the most stable conformation. Pairs of cis-trans isomers are found to have rather characteristic differences in their 130 spectra. This fact was used to assign the resonances found for cis-trans mixtures of methyl-substituted cyc1oheptanols to specific isomers.
By means of the BC NMR spectra of tricyclo{2.2.0~rfJ6Jhexane and thirteen of its derivatives the effects of substituents in endo-3- and endo-5-positions on the HC chemical shifts have been determined. The y-anti effects are at least as Jarge as in monosubstituted cyc1obutanes, where the shielding values of second-row hetero substituents exceed those in unstrained systems by far, and higher-row and carbon substituents still cause substantial upfield shifts. In the title system the y-anti effect of a substituent in the endo-3- and endo-5-position are operative additively, and thus shift the absorption of C-J upfieJd by a maximum of 27 ppm with respect to the unsubstituted hydrocarbon.
Carbon-13 shieldings and one-bond \(^{13}\)C-H coupling constants of bicydo[2.1.1]hexane, bicydo[2.l.l]hex- 2-ene, tricydo[3.1.1.0\(^{2.4}\)]heptane and benzvalene are presented and compared. to the data of related. compounds. H a bicydo[3.1.0]hexane system is part of a rigid skeleton, the cydopropane ring exerts spedfk: 'Y substituent eflects of two ldnds. In the case of the bicyclobexane boat form an upfield shift of the C-3 signal is observed and in tbe esse of the chair form a downfield shift of 15-20 ppm. Compared to the corresponding cydopentanes the double bond in strained cydopentenes causes downfield shifts of the C-4 absorption. 1bis eftect increases witb increasing strain, reaching 8 45.9 ppm maximum in benzvalene. Hence it is tbe only known bicydo[l.l.O]butane baving 8 reversed order of carbon shieldings. The downfield shifts are e:xplained by means of simple orbital interaction schemes.
Diels-Alder reaction of dimethyl 1,2,4,5-tetrazine-3,6-dicarboxylate (5) with benzvalene (4), norbornene, and norbornadiene afforded the azo compounds 7 and 8. Theseare derivatives of 2,3-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]oct-2-ene as is azo compound 3, which had been obtained previously from 5 and 2 equiv of benzvalene (4). The photochemical extrusion of nitrogen from 3, 7, and 8 has been studied. Whereas 7 and 8 on direct irradiation in benzene gave rise exclusively to the bicyclo[2.2.0]hexane derivatives 9 and 10, respectively, from 3 in addition to the bicyclo[2.2.0]hexane 11, the diolefin 1l was formed. Diolefin 12 has cisdouble bonds in the nine-membered ring and is fixed in a boat conformation in a manner so that the two bicyclobutane systems approach each other very closely. This geometry suggests the unusual ring opening of the intermediate 1,4-cyclohexanediyl diradical from a boat conformation, which arises by inversion of the primarily generated boat conformation. Sensitized photolysis of 3 as weilasthat of ll produced the saturated isomer 13 of 11 and 12. The proximity of the bicyclobutane systems in 1l causes unprecedented reactions leading to cage compounds. When ll was heated at 90 °C, a rearrangement to the pentacyclic product 10 took place. Utilization of tetradeuteriated substrate ll-d4 supported a pathway with two diradical intermediates. Behaving in a convcntional manncr, bicyclobutane 9 and bis(bicyclobutane) 11 took up 1 and 2 equiv of thiophenol most probably in a radical-chain addition to give the thioethers 28 and 19, respectively. In contrast, bis(bicyclobutane) ll was converted by 1 equiv of thiophenol into cagc compound 30 in a process involving both the strained a systems. Heating at 80 °C subjected 30 to a reversible Copc rearrangement, resulting in a 6:1 mixture of 31 and 30. When it was treated with bromine, 11 was transformed to cage compound 38. This addition is believed to proceed via a cationic intermediate. The structure of cage compound 10 was established by a singlc-crystal X-ray analysis of dialcohol 11 prepared from 20 and methyllithium.
Via reduction of benzvalene (1) with diirnine tricyclo[3.1.0.02•6]hexane is obtained in good yield. The procedure renders 3, which has already been synthesized by Lemal and Shim, accessible much easier and in larger quantities. IH and 13C n.m.r. spectroscopic data are discussed. Both the thermal and the AgBF4-catalyzed rearrangernent of 3 yield 1,3-cyclohexadiene (8). - The ozonolysis of 1 with subsequent LiAIH4-reduction results in cis-I,3- bis(hydroxyrnethyl)cyclobutane (13a).
The cycloadducts 6 and 7 of tricyc1o[4.1.0.0 2 ,7)hepta- 3,4-diene (~) with styrene and 1,3-butadiene rearrange to unusual products on thermolysis, namely the cycloheptatriene derivatives ~ and 10. 1-0xa-3,4-cyclohexadiene (20) is generated smoothly from 6,6-dichloro-3-oxabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane (22) and n-butyllithium. 1-0xa-2,3-cyclohexadiene (11) is formed from 6-exo-bromo-6-endo-fluoro-2-oxabicyclo[ 3.1.0]hexane (30) and methyllithium. In the presence of activated olefins, this reaction provides an efficient route to 28 and 33 - 38, the trapping products of 21. Interestingly, [2+2]-cycloadditions do not take place at the same double bond of 21 as [4+2]-cycloadditions. The reactions of 1,3-cyclopentadiene and indene with bromofluorocarbene afford 6-exo-bromo-6-endo-fluorobicyclo[3.1.0]hex-2-ene (50) and its benzo derivative ~, respectively. On treatment of these compounds with methyl lithium in the presence of styrene, the interception products 53 and 47 of 1,2,4-cyc10- hexatriene (44) and its benzo derivative 43, respectively, are formed in good yields.
As a traditional industrial pigment, perylene bisimide (PBI) dyes have found wide-spread applications. In addition, PBI dyes have been considered as versatile and promising functional materials for organic-based electronic and optic devices, such as transistors and solar cells. For these novel demands, the control of self-organization of this type of dye and the investigation of the relationship between the supramolecular structure and the relevant optical and electronic properties is of great importance. The objective of this thesis focuses on gaining a better understanding of structural and functional properties of pi-stacks based on self-assembling PBIs. Studies include the synthesis and characterization of new functional PBI dyes, their aggregation in solution, in liquid crystalline state and on surfaces, and their fluorescence and charge transport properties. An overview of the formation, thermodynamics and structures of pi-stacks of functional pi- conjugated molecules in solution and in liquid crystalline phases is given in Chapter 2. Chapters 3 and 4 deal with the pi-pi aggregates of new, highly fluorescent PBIs without core-substituents. In Chapter 3, the self-assembly of a PBI with tridodecylphenyl substituents at imide N atoms both in solution and condensed phase has been studied in great detail. In condensed state, the dye exhibits a hexagonal columnar liquid crystalline (LC) phase as confirmed by DSC, OPM and X-ray diffraction analysis. The columnar stacking of this dye has been further confirmed by atomic force microscopy (AFM) where single columns could be well resolved The charge transport properties this dye have been investigated by pulse radiolysis-time resolved microwave conductivity (PR-TRMC) measurements. To shed more light on the nature of the pi-pi interaction of the unsubstituted PBIs, solvent depend aggregation properties have been investigated in Chapter 4. The studies are further extended from core-unsubstituted PBIs to core-substituted ones (Chapter 5 and 6). In Chapter 5, a series of highly soluble and fluorescent core-twisted PBIs that bear the same trialkylphenyl groups at the imide positions but different bay-substituents and were synthesized. These compounds are characterized by distortions of the perylene planes with dihedral angles in the range of 15-37° according to crystallographic data and molecular modeling studies. In contrast to the extended oligomeric aggregates formed for planar unsubstituted PBIs, this family of dyes formed discrete pi-pi-stacked dimers in apolar methylcyclohexane as concentration-dependent UV/Vis measurements and VPO analysis revealed. The Gibbs free energy of dimerization can be correlated with the twist angles of the dyes linearly. In condensed state, several of these PBIs form luminescent rectangular or hexagonal columnar liquid crystalline phases with low isotropization temperatures. The core-twisting effect on semiconducting properties has been examined in Chapter 6. In this chapter, a comparative study of the electrochemical and the charge transport properties of a series of non-substituted and chlorine-functionalized PBIs was performed. While Chapters 3-6 focus on one-component dye systems, Chapter 7 explored the possibility of a supramolecular engineering of co-aggregates formed by hydrogen-bonded 2:1 and 1:1 complex of oligo(p-phenylene vinylene)s (OPVs) and PBIs. Covalently linked donor-acceptor dye arrays have been prepared for comparison. Concentration and temperature-dependent UV/Vis spectroscopy revealed all hydrogen-bonded and covalent systems form well-ordered J-type aggregates in methylcyclohexane. With these hydrogen-bonded OPV-PBI complexes, fibers containing p-type and n-type molecules can be prepared on the nano-scale (1-20 nm). For the 2:1 OPV-PBI hydrogenbonded arrays hierarchically assembled chiral superstructures consisting of left-handed helical pi-pi co-aggregates (CD spectroscopy) of the two dyes that further assemble into right-handed nanometer-scale supercoils in the solid state (AFM study) have been observed. All of these well-defined OPV-PBI assemblies presented here exhibit photoinduced electron transfer on sub-ps timescale, while the electron recombination differs for different systems.Thus, it was suggested that such assemblies of p- and n-type semiconductors might serve as valuable nanoscopic functional units for organic electronics.
In this work the successful synthesis, the linear and nonlinear spectroscopic properties as well as the electrochemical behaviour of some linear and star-shaped squaraine superchromophores that are based on indolenine derivatives were presented. The attempt to synthesise similar chromophores which contained only benzothiazole squaraines failed unfortunately. However, one trimer that contained mixed benzothiazole indolenine squaraines could be synthesised and investigated as well.
The linear spectroscopic properties, like red-shift and broadening of the absorption, of all superchromophores could be explained by exciton coupling theory. The heterochromophores (SQA)2(SQB)-N, (SQA)(SQB)2-N and (SQA)(SQB)-NH displayed additional to the typical squaraine fluorescence from the lowest excited state some properties that could be assigned to localised states. While the chromophores with N-core showed very small emission quantum yields, the chromophores with the other cores and the linear oligomers display an enhancement compared to the monomers.
Transient absorption spectroscopy experiments of the star-shaped superchromophores showed, that their formally degenerated S1 states are split due to a deviation of the ideal C3 symmetry. This is also the reason for the observation of an absorption band for the highest exciton state, which is derived from the S1-state of the monomers, as its transition-dipole moment would be zero in the symmetrical case.
The linear oligomers and the star-shaped superchromophores with a benzene or triarylamine core showed at least additive, sometimes even weak cooperative, behaviour in the two-photon absorption experiments. Additional to higher two-photon absorption cross sections the chromophores showed a pronounced broadening of the nonlinear absorption, due to symmetry breaking and a higher density of states.
Unfortunately it was not possible to solve the problem of the equilibrium of the cisoid and the transoid structure of donor substituted azulene squaraines, due to either instability of the squaraines or steric hindrance.
The linear and nonlinear optical properties of a series of oligomeric squaraine dyes were investigated by one-photon absorption spectroscopy (1PA) and two-photon absorption (2PA) induced fluorescence spectroscopy. The superchromophores are based on two indolenine squaraine dyes with transoid (SQA) and cisoid configuration (SQB). Using these monomers, linear dimers and trimers as well as star-shaped trimers and hexamers with benzene or triphenylamine cores were synthesised and investigated. The red-shifted and intensified 1PA spectra of all superchromophores could well be explained by exciton coupling theory. In the linear chromophore arrangements we also found superradiance of fluorescence but not in the branched systems. Furthermore, the 2PA showed enhanced cross sections for the linear oligomers but only additivity for the branched systems. This emphasizes that the enhancement of the 2PA cross section in the linear arrangements is probably caused by orbital interactions of higher excited configurations.
Background: Xenobiotics represent an environmental stress and as such are a source for antibiotics, including the isoquinoline (IQ) compound IQ-143. Here, we demonstrate the utility of complementary analysis of both host and pathogen datasets in assessing bacterial adaptation to IQ-143, a synthetic analog of the novel type N,C-coupled naphthyl-isoquinoline alkaloid ancisheynine. Results: Metabolite measurements, gene expression data and functional assays were combined with metabolic modeling to assess the effects of IQ-143 on Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis and human cell lines, as a potential paradigm for novel antibiotics. Genome annotation and PCR validation identified novel enzymes in the primary metabolism of staphylococci. Gene expression response analysis and metabolic modeling demonstrated the adaptation of enzymes to IQ-143, including those not affected by significant gene expression changes. At lower concentrations, IQ-143 was bacteriostatic, and at higher concentrations bactericidal, while the analysis suggested that the mode of action was a direct interference in nucleotide and energy metabolism. Experiments in human cell lines supported the conclusions from pathway modeling and found that IQ-143 had low cytotoxicity. Conclusions: The data suggest that IQ-143 is a promising lead compound for antibiotic therapy against staphylococci. The combination of gene expression and metabolite analyses with in silico modeling of metabolite pathways allowed us to study metabolic adaptations in detail and can be used for the evaluation of metabolic effects of other xenobiotics.
The technology of organic photovoltaics offers the possibility of low-cost devices due to easy fabrication procedures and low material consumption and at the same time high flexibility concerning the applied substrates or design features such as the color palette. Owing to these benefits, this research field is highly active, being reflected by the continuously rising number of publications. Chapter 1 gives an extensive overview of a part of these reports, namely the field of solution-processed BHJ organic solar cells using small molecules as electron-donating materials. In the early years of this research area (2006-2008), well known hole transporting materials such as triphenylamine based chromophores, oligothiophenes and polyaromatic hydrocarbons were applied. However, many of these dyes lacked absorption at longer wavelengths and were therefore limited in their light harvesting qualities. Later, chromophores based on low band gap systems consisting of electron-donating and electron-accepting units showing internal charge transfer overcame this handicap. Today, donor-substituted diketopyrrolopyrroles (D-A-D chromophores), squaraines (D-A-D chromophores) and acceptor substituted oligothiophenes (A-D-A chromophores) are among the most promising dyes for small molecule based organic solar cells with PCEs of 4-5%. This work is based on the findings of the groups of Würthner and Meerholz, which tested merocyanine dyes for the first time in organic BHJ solar cells.4 According to the Bässler theory85, the high dipolarity of these dyes should hamper the charge transport, but the obtained first results with PCE of 1.7% proved the potenital of this class of dyes for this application. Merocyanine dyes offer the advantages of facile synthesis and purification, high tinctorial strength and monodispersity. Additionally, the electronic structure of the dyes, namely the absorption as well as the electrochemical properties, can be adjusted by using the right combination of donor and acceptor units. For these reasons, this class of dye is highly interesting for the application in organic solar cells. It was the aim of the thesis to build more knowledge about the potential and limitations of merocyanines in BHJ photovoltaic devices. By screening a variety of donor and acceptor groups a comprehensive data set both for the molecular materials as well as for the respective solar devices was generated and analyzed. As one focus, the arrangement of the chromophores in the solid state was investigated to gain insight about the packing in the solar cells and its relevance for the performance of the latter. To do so, X-ray single crystal analyses were performed for selected molecules. By means of correlations between molecular properties and the characteristics of the corresponding solar cells, several design rules to generate efficient chromophores for organic photovoltaics were developed. The different donor and acceptor moieties applied in this work are depicted in the following ...
Dipole moments and various spectroscopic constants of some low-lying electronic states of the CaF molecule have been calculated using the multireference single· and double-excitation configuration-interaction (MRD-CI) method. The electronic structure of the highly ionic molecule in various excited states can be explained in tenns of different polarisations of the mainly Cacentered valence electron in the field of the F\(^-\) anion. Plots of natural orbitals occupied by the valence electron in the different states give a qualitative picture of the charge distribution and provide a visualisation of the different polarisations of the valence electron in the various states. Comparisons with the electrostatic polarisation model ofTörring, Ernstand Kändler (TEK model) are made. The unknown A' \(^2 \Delta\) state is predicted to lie about 21200 cm\(^{-1}\) above the ground state.
The aim of this work was the selective functionalisation of tribenzotriquinacene (TBTQ) in order to extend the aromatic system and tune the electronic properties. The synthesised molecules could be starting materials for a model system of a defective graphene fragment. The “triple cyclisation pathway” by Hopf et al. was adapted and fluorinated tribenzotriquinacenes were synthesised for the first time.
Phenanthrene groups were also introduced in other model systems and the crystal structures of phenanthrene functionalised TBTQs were compared with the parent molecules.
In addition, the arrangement of TBTQ and centro methyl functionalised TBTQ was investigated on a Ag(111) surface for the first time using scanning transmission microscopy (STM). Different arrangements were observed, depending on the coverage of the surface.
The insights gained about the interaction between TBTQs as well as their synthesis provide a foundation for further work and potential applications as components in organic electronic devices.
The N,C-coupled naphthylisoquinoline alkaloid ancistrocladinium A belongs to a novel class of natural products with potent antiprotozoal activity. Its effects on tumor cells, however, have not yet been explored. We demonstrate the antitumor activity of ancistrocladinium A in multiple myeloma (MM), a yet incurable blood cancer that represents a model disease for adaptation to proteotoxic stress. Viability assays showed a potent apoptosis-inducing effect of ancistrocladinium A in MM cell lines, including those with proteasome inhibitor (PI) resistance, and in primary MM cells, but not in non-malignant blood cells. Concomitant treatment with the PI carfilzomib or the histone deacetylase inhibitor panobinostat strongly enhanced the ancistrocladinium A-induced apoptosis. Mass spectrometry with biotinylated ancistrocladinium A revealed significant enrichment of RNA-splicing-associated proteins. Affected RNA-splicing-associated pathways included genes involved in proteotoxic stress response, such as PSMB5-associated genes and the heat shock proteins HSP90 and HSP70. Furthermore, we found strong induction of ATF4 and the ATM/H2AX pathway, both of which are critically involved in the integrated cellular response following proteotoxic and oxidative stress. Taken together, our data indicate that ancistrocladinium A targets cellular stress regulation in MM and improves the therapeutic response to PIs or overcomes PI resistance, and thus may represent a promising potential therapeutic agent.
Perylene bisimides (PBIs) are among the best fluorophores but have to be enwrapped for optoelectronic applications by large and heavy substituents to prevent their ππ‐stacking, which is known to accelerate non‐radiative decay processes in the solid state. Here, light‐weight di‐tert‐butylsilyl groups are introduced to bridge 1,12‐dihydroxy and 1,6,7,12‐tetrahydroxy PBIs to afford sublimable dyes for vacuum‐processed optoelectronic devices. For both new compounds, this substitution provides a twisted and shielded perylene π‐core whose, via OSiObridges, rigid structure affords well‐resolved absorption and emission spectra with strong fluorescence in solution, as well as in the solid state. The usefulness of these dyes for vacuum‐processed optoelectronic devices is demonstrated in organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs) that show monomer‐like emission spectra and high maximum external quantum efficiency (EQEmax) values of up to 3.1% for the doubly silicon‐bridged PBI.
Coherent two-dimensional electronic spectroscopy in the Soret band of a chiral porphyrin dimer
(2013)
Using coherent two-dimensional (2D) electronic spectroscopy in fully noncollinear geometry, we observe the excitonic coupling of β,β'-linked bis[tetraphenylporphyrinato-zinc(II)] on an ultrafast timescale in the excited state. The results for two states in the Soret band originating from an excitonic splitting are explained by population transfer with approximately 100 fs from the energetically higher to the lower excitonic state. This interpretation is consistent with exemplary calculations of 2D spectra for a model four-level system with coupling.
Recently, we have shown that C6-ceramides efficiently suppress viral replication by trapping the virus in lysosomes. Here, we use antiviral assays to evaluate a synthetic ceramide derivative α-NH2-ω-N3-C6-ceramide (AKS461) and to confirm the biological activity of C6-ceramides inhibiting SARS-CoV-2. Click-labeling with a fluorophore demonstrated that AKS461 accumulates in lysosomes. Previously, it has been shown that suppression of SARS-CoV-2 replication can be cell-type specific. Thus, AKS461 inhibited SARS-CoV-2 replication in Huh-7, Vero, and Calu-3 cells up to 2.5 orders of magnitude. The results were confirmed by CoronaFISH, indicating that AKS461 acts comparable to the unmodified C6-ceramide. Thus, AKS461 serves as a tool to study ceramide-associated cellular and viral pathways, such as SARS-CoV-2 infections, and it helped to identify lysosomes as the central organelle of C6-ceramides to inhibit viral replication.
Macrocyclic Donor‐Acceptor Dyads Composed of Oligothiophene Half‐Cycles and Perylene Bisimides
(2022)
A series of donor‐acceptor (D−A) macrocyclic dyads consisting of an electron‐poor perylene bisimide (PBI) π‐scaffold bridged with electron‐rich α‐oligothiophenes bearing four, five, six and seven thiophene units between the two phenyl‐imide substituents has been synthesized and characterized by steady‐state UV/Vis absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy, cyclic and differential pulse voltammetry as well as transient absorption spectroscopy. Tying the oligothiophene strands in a conformationally fixed macrocyclic arrangement leads to a more rigid π‐scaffold with vibronic fine structure in the respective absorption spectra. Electrochemical analysis disclosed charged state properties in solution which are strongly dependent on the degree of rigidification within the individual macrocycle. Investigation of the excited state dynamics revealed an oligothiophene bridge size‐dependent fast charge transfer process for the macrocyclic dyads upon PBI subunit excitation.
Two macrocyclic architectures comprising oligothiophene strands that connect the imide positions of a perylene bisimide (PBI) dye have been synthesized via a platinum-mediated cross-coupling strategy. The crystal structure of the double bridged PBI reveals all syn-arranged thiophene units that completely enclose the planar PBI chromophore via a 12-membered macrocycle. The target structures were characterized by steady-state UV/Vis absorption, fluorescence and transient absorption spectroscopy, as well as cyclic and differential pulse voltammetry. Both donor–acceptor dyads show ultrafast Förster Resonance Energy Transfer and photoinduced electron transfer, thereby leading to extremely low fluorescence quantum yields even in the lowest polarity cyclohexane solvent.
A series of donor-acceptor macrocyclic architectures comprising oligothiophene strands that connect the imide positions of a perylene bisimide have been synthesized via a platinum-mediated cross-coupling strategy. The target structures were characterized by steady-state UV/Vis absorption, fluorescence and transient absorption spectroscopy, as well as cyclic and differential pulse voltammetry. Crystal structure analysis of the macrocycles revealed insights into the bridge arrangements. The properties of the macrocyclic bridges were compared to linear oligothiophene reference compounds which itself exhibited an unusual electrochemical effect.
We present the rapid biophysical characterization of six previously reported putative G‐quadruplex‐forming RNAs from the 5′‐untranslated region (5′‐UTR) of silvestrol‐sensitive transcripts for investigation of their secondary structures. By NMR and CD spectroscopic analysis, we found that only a single sequence—[AGG]\(_{2}\)[CGG]\(_{2}\)C—folds into a single well‐defined G‐quadruplex structure. Sequences with longer poly‐G strands form unspecific aggregates, whereas CGG‐repeat‐containing sequences exhibit a temperature‐dependent equilibrium between a hairpin and a G‐quadruplex structure. The applied experimental strategy is fast and provides robust readout for G‐quadruplex‐forming capacities of RNA oligomers.
Exciton coupling is of fundamental importance and determines functional properties of organic dyes in (opto-)electronic and photovoltaic devices. Here we show that strong exciton coupling is not limited to the situation of equal chromophores as often assumed. Quadruple dye stacks were obtained from two bis(merocyanine) dyes with same or different chromophores, respectively, which dimerize in less-polar solvents resulting in the respective homo- and heteroaggregates. The structures of the quadruple dye stacks were assigned by NMR techniques and unambiguously confirmed by single-crystal X-ray analysis. The heteroaggregate stack formed from the bis(merocyanine) bearing two different chromophores exhibits remarkably different ultraviolet/vis absorption bands compared with those of the homoaggregate of the bis(merocyanine) comprising two identical chromophores. Quantum chemical analysis based on an extension of Kasha’s exciton theory appropriately describes the absorption properties of both types of stacks revealing strong exciton coupling also between different chromophores within the heteroaggregate.
Galectin-1 (hGal-1) is overexpressed by numerous cancer types and previously conducted studies confirmed that the β-galactoside-binding protein mediates various molecular interactions associated with tumor growth, spread and survival. Upon interaction with carbohydrate-based binding epitopes of glycan structures on human cell surfaces galectin-1 induces proliferative, angiogenetic and migratory signals and modulates negative T cell regulation which essentially helps the tumor to evade the immune response. These findings attributed galectin-1 a pivotal role in tumor physiology and strongly suggest the protein as target for diagnostic and therapeutic applications.
Within the scope of this work a strategy was elaborated for designing tailor-made galectin-1 ligands by functionalizing selected hydroxyl groups of the natural binding partner N-acetyllactosamine (LacNAc) that are not involved in the sophisticated interplay between the disaccharide and the protein. Synthetic modifications intended to introduce chemical groups i) to address a potential binding site adjacent to the carbohydrate recognition domain (CRD) with extended hGal-1-ligand interactions, ii) to implement a tracer isotope for diagnostic detection and iii) to install a linker unit for immobilization on microarrays.
Resulting structures were investigated regarding their targeting ability towards galectin-1 by cocrystallization experiments, SPR and ITC studies. Potent binders were further probed for their diagnostic potential to trace elevated galectin-1 levels in microarray experiments and for an application in positron emission tomography (PET).
The thesis enhances the strategy of non-destructive fluorescence read-out in rylene bisimide-diarylethene containing photochromic systems. The fluorescence of the emitter unit is quenched by a photoinduced electron transfer only to one of the isomeric forms of the photochrome. The driving force of the fuorescence-quenching electron transfer was calculated by the help of the Rehm-Weller equation. The novel photochromic systems satisfy the necessary requirements for non-destructive read-out in write/read/erase fluorescent memory devices.
