Resumo(s): | Organic compounds displaying second-order non-linear optical properties are key materials for optoelectronics. Here, three push-pull flavin derivates (FLA-A-C) have been synthesised and their optical, redox and second harmonic generation (SHG) properties have been investigated. In particular, we describe the role differing electron donor units (N, N-dimethylaniline-, N, N-diphenylaniline- and ferrocenyl-) attached through the C(8) position of the flavin unit have on the optical and redox properties of the latter. Hyper-Rayleigh scattering in dioxane solutions using a fundamental wavelength of 1064 nm was employed to evaluate their second-order nonlinear optical properties. Our experiments have indicated that their first hyperpolarisabilities (beta) are influenced by the electronic nature and strength of the donor groups. N, N-dimethylaniline-functionalised derivative FLA-A, exhibited the largest first hyperpolarisability (beta = 9550 x 10(-30) esu, using the T convention) and high decomposition temperature (T-d = 312 degrees C), thus indicating its potential application as a useful material for incorporation into non-linear optical devices. |
