Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of synthesis of fluorescent polymers, and in particular to a polymerization method based on Friedel-Crafts reaction, preparation of synthesized fluorescent polymer materials and chemiluminescent applications thereof. Background Art

[0002] Friedel-Crafts reaction is a classic organic chemistry reaction used to introduce alkyl groups into aromatic rings. The reaction usually uses Lewis acid (such as aluminum chloride) as a catalyst to generate alkyl cations from alkyl halides, which then undergo electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions with aromatic rings. Friedel-Crafts alkylation is widely used in pharmaceuticals, materials science, and fragrance synthesis, and is valued for its high efficiency and diversity.

[0003] Aggregation-induced emission (AIE) refers to the phenomenon that certain molecules exhibit enhanced fluorescence in an aggregated state. This concept was first proposed by Professor Tang Benzhong in 2001 to solve the problem of fluorescence quenching of traditional fluorescent materials at high concentrations or in the solid state. AIE materials usually exhibit weak fluorescence in solution, while the fluorescence intensity is significantly enhanced when aggregated or in the solid state. This is because the intramolecular rotation and vibration are restricted in the aggregated state, reducing non-radiative energy loss. AIE materials are widely used in fields such as bioimaging, chemical sensing and optoelectronic devices due to their excellent optical properties, high sensitivity and good environmental stability.

[0004] Chemiluminescence is a phenomenon that produces light directly through chemical reactions, without the need for an external light source or power source. The basic principle is that chemical reactions release energy, causing molecules to enter an excited state, and then release photons when they return to the ground state. Chemiluminescence is widely used in entertainment, emergency lighting, and signage because it does not require electricity, is simple to operate, and can provide a variety of colors. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a new method for preparing a multicolor fluorescent polymer by Friedel-Crafts polymerization to form a multicolor fluorescent polymer material with excellent fluorescent properties.

The obtained polymer exhibits excellent performance in chemiluminescence applications, including high luminescence efficiency, adjustable luminescence color, and good environmental stability.

[0006] The fluorescent polymer has aggregation induced emission effect (AIE).

[0007] The object of the present invention is achieved by providing a method for synthesizing a multicolor fluorescent polymer based on Friedel-Crafts polymerization, characterized in that: a pure solvent or a mixed solvent of different phenyl compounds and chlorine-containing compounds is used to carry out Friedel-Crafts polymerization in the presence of a Friedel-Crafts reaction catalyst to obtain a multicolor fluorescent polymer, the pure solvent or the mixed solvent is dichloromethane, chloroform, or carbon tetrachloride, the Friedel-Crafts reaction catalyst is anhydrous aluminum trichloride, anhydrous tin tetrachloride, or anhydrous titanium tetrachloride, and the polymerization method can be carried out under normal temperature and air conditions.

[0011] The multicolor fluorescent polymer prepared by the above-mentioned synthesis method of the present invention is used in chemiluminescence, and is characterized in that: the multicolor fluorescent polymer, when used in chemiluminescence, has good luminous efficiency and long duration.

[0012] The above application of the present invention is characterized in that: a multicolor fluorescent polymer is mixed with bis(2,4,5-trichlorosalicylic acid n-pentyl ester) oxalate (CPPO) in THF, and hydrogen peroxide is added, and the solution emits strong fluorescence for a long time.

[0013] Specifically, the present invention provides a method for preparing the fluorescent polymer compound (taking 1,2-diphenylethane as an example), including the following specific production process:

[0014] In a Schlenk tube filled with anhydrous aluminum chloride, 1,2-diphenylethane was added and dissolved in dichloromethane. The mixed solution was placed in the air at room temperature and slowly stirred for 12 hours. After 12 hours, the reaction was quenched with dilute sulfuric acid and washed with dichloromethane and water. After drying with anhydrous magnesium sulfate, the mixed solution was concentrated under reduced pressure. The product was precipitated in excess petroleum ether, filtered and vacuum dried to obtain a solid powder, i.e., a multicolor fluorescent polymer.

[0015] Among them, the addition of different phenyl compounds can achieve the regulation of multi-color fluorescence, including but not limited to blue, cyan, yellow, orange and red fluorescence.

[0016] The invention discloses a method for preparing a multicolor fluorescent polymer applicable to chemiluminescence. The multicolor fluorescent polymer prepared by the method is mixed with bis(2,4,5-trichlorosalicylic acid n-pentyl ester) oxalate (CPPO) in THF, and hydrogen peroxide is added, and the solution emits strong fluorescence, which can last up to 30 minutes.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and effects:

[0020] 3. The synthesis method is simple and efficient: The synthesis method of the polymer can be carried out under normal temperature and air conditions. It is simple and efficient, with low synthesis cost and is suitable for large-scale production.

[0021] 4. Applicable to the field of chemiluminescence: To improve its safety, fluorescent polymers usually have higher chemical stability and lower toxicity. By adjusting the chemical structure of the polymer, a wider range of color choices and more precise color control can be achieved. Fluorescent polymers usually have better light resistance and heat resistance. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0027] The following provides drawings and specific embodiments to describe the present invention in detail. The following specific implementation methods are only used to explain the present invention, and the protection scope is not limited by the following embodiments.

[0028] Unless otherwise specified, the experimental methods used in the following examples are all conventional methods; the reagents, materials, etc. used in the following examples, unless otherwise specified, can be obtained from commercial channels.

[0029] The experimental data in the examples were measured using the following instruments and measurement methods:

[0030] (1) Method for determining the chemical structure of the generated polymer: using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy;

[0031] (2) Method for determining the fluorescence properties of the generated polymer: using a fluorescence spectrometer.

[0032] Example 1

[0033] Synthesis of multicolor fluorescent polymers (taking 1,2-diphenylethane as an example).

[0034] The chemical reaction formula of the Friedel-Crafts reaction between 1,2-diphenylethane and the catalyst anhydrous aluminum chloride used in this embodiment is as follows:

[0035]

[0036] This embodiment includes the following steps:

[0037] Step 1: Place anhydrous aluminum chloride (0.15 g, 1 eq) into a Schlenk tube, add 1,2-diphenylethane (0.2 g, 1 eq), and then use a dropper to drop dichloromethane (1.1 mL, 15 eq) to obtain a mixed solution.

[0038] Step 2: Place the mixed solution in air at room temperature and stir slowly for 12 hours.

[0039] Step 3: After 12 hours, the reaction was quenched with 0.5 mL of dilute sulfuric acid, and extracted with dichloromethane and water for three times. After drying with anhydrous magnesium sulfate, the mixed solution was concentrated to 2 mL under reduced pressure. The product was precipitated in excess petroleum ether, filtered and vacuum dried to obtain an orange solid powder, i.e., a fluorescent polymer, with a yield of 65%. The product exhibited orange fluorescence and had aggregation-induced emission (AIE) effect.

[0040] Example 2

[0041] Fluorescence spectra of the fluorescent polymer prepared in Example 1 in mixed solutions with different water contents were measured.

[0042] The fluorescent polymer prepared in Example 1 exhibited aggregation-induced emission in THF / water mixed solutions with different volume ratios. Figure 3 .Depend on Figure 3 It can be seen that in the mixed solutions of different THF / water volume ratios, as the content of the poor solvent (water) increases, the fluorescent polymer gradually precipitates to form nanoaggregates. As the degree of aggregation increases, the fluorescence shows a gradual red shift, showing an obvious aggregation-induced emission effect.

[0043] 5 mg of the fluorescent polymer prepared in Example 1 was dissolved in 1 mL of THF, and the solution was dotted on the TCL plate using a capillary. As the solvent on the plate gradually evaporated, the fluorescent polymer gradually aggregated, the fluorescence intensity on the TCL plate increased, and a red-shift phenomenon of fluorescence occurred, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 shown.

[0045] The fluorescent polymer prepared in Example 1 replaces the traditional dye to participate in chemiluminescence.

[0046] Preparation of Solution A: Weigh 0.1 g of bis(2,4,5-trichlorosalicylic acid n-pentyl) oxalate (CPPO) and 0.005 g of the fluorescent polymer prepared in Example 1, and dissolve them in 1 mL of THF to obtain Solution A.

[0047] Preparation of Solution B: Use a pipette to mix 0.4 mL of 30 wt% H2O2 and 0.6 mL of THF to obtain Solution B.

[0048] Use a dropper to add liquid B into liquid A. In the dark, the mixed solution is observed to emit a strong orange fluorescence that lasts for a long time. Figure 5 shown.
