Photoinduced electron transfer (eT) and energy transfer (ET) were studied in polymeric nanoparticles (NP) containing 9-methylanthracene-acrylate (A) and N,N-dimethylaniline-acrylate (D). Efficiency of both intra-NP eT and ET processes increased in PAD75 NPs due to closer proximity of D and A.

Area of Science:

  • Polymer Chemistry
  • Photochemistry
  • Materials Science

Background:

  • Polymeric nanoparticles (NP) offer tunable environments for studying molecular interactions.
  • Photoinduced electron transfer (eT) and energy transfer (ET) are fundamental processes in photochemistry.
  • Understanding these processes within confined NP matrices is crucial for developing advanced materials.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate photoinduced electron transfer (eT) and energy transfer (ET) between 9-methylanthracene-acrylate (A) and N,N-dimethylaniline-acrylate (D) derivatives within polymeric nanoparticles (NP).
  • To evaluate the influence of varying N,N-dimethylaniline-acrylate (D) content on the efficiency of eT and ET processes.
  • To characterize the photophysical properties and quenching mechanisms of these systems.

  • Synthesis of five types of polymeric nanoparticles (PAD0, PAD25, PAD75, PD25, PD75) with varying compositions.
  • Characterization using UV-visible absorption, emission, excitation, and excitation anisotropy spectroscopy.
  • Time-dependent absorption and emission spectroscopy to analyze decay profiles and quenching dynamics.

Main Results:

  • 9-methylanthracene-acrylate (A) exhibited complex emission decay profiles, indicating interaction with distinct environments within the NPs.
  • Emission quenching of A by N,N-dimethylaniline-acrylate (D) was observed in PAD25 and PAD75, with both static and dynamic components.
  • Selective excitation of D in PAD25 and PAD75 led to singlet-singlet energy transfer (ET) to A, following a Förster-type mechanism.

Conclusions:

  • Intra-NP photoinduced electron transfer (eT) and energy transfer (ET) processes are significantly influenced by the concentration of N,N-dimethylaniline-acrylate (D).
  • The PAD75 nanoparticles demonstrated more efficient eT and ET due to a reduced average separation distance between D and A.
  • These findings highlight the potential of tailored nanoparticle architectures for controlling photophysical processes.
