In this study, the symmetry relaxation effects on one- and two-photon absorption spectra of two bichromophore systems were investigated. The results showed that the planarity and deviations from planarity of the biphenyl moiety affected the two-photon transition strengths. Additionally, the perpendicular arrangement of phenylene units in the biphenylene moiety led to a decrease in two-photon transition strengths. The difference in two-photon absorption cross section between the two compounds was attributed to differences in equilibrium geometry.
Given potential applications of multiphoton absorbers, in the present work we have studied the symmetry -relaxation effects in one-and two-photon absorption spectra in two bichromophore systems based on difluoroborate core linked by biphenylene or bianthracene moieties. We have employed a palette of exper-imental methods (synthesis, one-and two-photon spectroscopy, X-ray crystallography) and state-of-the-art computational methods to shed light on how symmetry relaxation, a result of twisting of building blocks, affects one-and two-photon absorption of the two studied fluorescent dyes. Electronic-structure calculations revealed that the planarity of central biphenyl moiety, as well as deviations from planarity up to 30-40 deg., ensure maximum values of two-photon transition strengths. Perpendicular arrangement of phenylene units in biphenylene moiety leads to 20% drop in the two-photon transition strengths. More detailed studies demonstrated that equilibrium structures of both compounds in chloroform solution show very different values of two-photon absorption cross sections at absorption band maxima, i.e. 224 GM for and 134 GM for biphenyle and bianthracene linkers, respectively. The latter value is in good agreement with experimental value obtained using Z-scan method. The difference in two-photon absorption cross section between both compounds can be rationalized based on equilibrium geometry differences, i.e. interplanar angle is 35 deg and 91 deg in the case of biphenylene and bianthracene moiety, respectively. It is thus not beneficial to introduce conformationally locked central linker based on bianthracene moiety.
