Abstract

Abstract : Three-coordinated organoboron fluorophores bearing 3, 5-diphenyl pyrazoles have been synthesized and studied their optical and non-linear optical properties to detect picric acid. Abstract : Three-coordinated organoboron fluorophores bearing 3, 5-diphenyl pyrazoles have been synthesized. The pyrazole anchored boron fluorophores show selective fluorescence quenching response to trinitrophenol (or) picric acid (PA) and have the ability to discriminate picric acid over other analytes. We investigated nonlinear optical (NLO) properties of these three-coordinated organoboron compounds (in solutions) in the presence and absence of PA. In absence of PA, the two-photon-absorption coefficient ( β ) of organoboron fluorophores exhibits a variation from 2 × 10 −12 cm W −1 to 4 × 10 −12 cm W −1 . The results also reveal that the NLO characteristics of organoboron fluorophores exhibit a discernible variation with PA addition which has correlations with quenching observed in fluorescence measurements.
