Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of fluorescent liquid crystal, and in particular to a liquid crystal polymer-aggregation-induced luminescence molecule fluorescent composite material with pH response. Background Art

[0002] Fluorescent compounds have internal filter effect and self-absorption, and molecular aggregation can easily cause fluorescence quenching, which is called aggregation-induced fluorescence quenching (ACQ effect). Generally, the solution needs to be diluted to a concentration of less than 10 -5 mol / L is required to obtain an accurate spectrum of fluorescent molecules. Low concentrations severely limit the practical application of fluorescent sensors. Usually, researchers will avoid molecular aggregation by selecting fluorophores with high fluorescence quantum efficiency, introducing flexible groups such as alkyl chains to solve the problems of π-π stacking and material dissolution, and designing molecular structures with large steric hindrance such as dendrites to prevent aggregation. In 2001, Tang Benzhong's research group first proposed the AIE (aggregation-induced emission) mechanism. They found that fluorescent substances containing groups such as 1-methyl-1,2,3,4,5-tetraphenylthiole, substituted styrene, 9,10-diphenylethylene anthracene and tetraphenylethylene showed non-fluorescence or low fluorescence in solution. However, in the aggregated state, the intramolecular motion was restricted, which inhibited the energy attenuation of non-radiative channels, and excluded the torsional intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) process and J aggregation, thereby generating strong fluorescence. Aggregation-induced emission has expanded the application range of fluorescent sensors from being only suitable for dilute solution detection to aggregate detection, which greatly expands the scope of application of fluorescent sensors.

[0003] The research on AIE small molecules has achieved a series of important results, and the research on polymer materials with AIE properties has gradually become popular. When the AIE element is introduced into the polymer matrix, the polymer chain will inhibit the molecular motion of the AIE structural unit, resulting in a higher luminescence efficiency. Compared with AIE small molecules, AIE polymers have better plasticity, heat resistance and corrosion resistance. At the same time, through a variety of synthetic strategies, some specific functional groups can also be introduced into the polymer chain to obtain polymer materials that have fluorescent responses to external stimuli (light, force, acid, alkali, heat), which greatly develops its application in different fields such as stimulus-responsive materials, metal ion detection and biomedicine.

[0004] For example, the patent technical document CN115677890A discloses a dendritic fluorescent liquid crystal polymer with aggregation-induced emission properties and a preparation method thereof. First, a dendritic fluorescent monomer molecule I with an AIE effect is synthesized, and then the corresponding dendritic fluorescent liquid crystal polymer II is synthesized by a free radical polymerization method. This type of dendritic fluorescent liquid crystal polymer material has high temperature resistance and good processing properties, but cannot guarantee the sensitivity and reversibility of pH response.

[0005] Therefore, according to the above-mentioned related technologies, it is urgent to develop a liquid crystal polymer-aggregation-induced emission molecule fluorescent composite material with pH response. Summary of the invention

[0081] Performance Testing:

[0082] Fluorescence test of different water contents:

[0083] The TPE-4amidine prepared in Example 1 was dissolved in dimethylformamide to prepare a 10 - 2Then, the mother liquor was mixed with dimethylformamide and water in different proportions to prepare different water contents (0%, 10%, 80%, 90%, 99%) with a concentration of 10 -4 mol / L solution and tested its fluorescence properties.

[0084] When the water content is between 0% and 60%, the fluorescence of TPE-4amidine is very weak and almost no obvious fluorescence phenomenon can be observed. However, as the water content gradually increases from 70% to 99%, the fluorescence intensity of the solution increases significantly, the maximum emission wavelength of the fluorescence in the solution is 468nm, and the fluorescence is blue overall.

[0085] When the SLCP film treated with alkali was added to the TPE-4amidine solution with strong fluorescence, the fluorescence intensity of the solution decreased by 10 times, and the SLCP film also changed from a non-fluorescent state to a film with strong green fluorescence.

[0086] Phase transition test:

[0087] Take 20 mg of the liquid crystal monomer mixture in Example 1, preheat the differential scanning calorimeter to the working temperature, ensure that the instrument is accurately calibrated, put the liquid crystal monomer mixture in Example 1 and the reference material into the sample crucible of the differential scanning calorimeter, set the heating rate to 10°C / min, raise the temperature to 150°C, start the differential scanning calorimeter, and the instrument will heat the sample according to the preset temperature program, while monitoring and recording the heat difference between the sample and the reference material.

[0088] The results of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) show that the prepared liquid crystal mixture undergoes a phase transition to a smectic phase at 88°C, and transforms into a nematic phase at 104.64°C. Further heating eventually leads to an isotropic state.

[0089] Fluorescence reversibility test:

[0090] After adding 2 drops of alkaline phosphate buffer to the pH-responsive liquid crystal polymer-aggregation-induced emission molecule fluorescent composite material prepared in Example 1, its fluorescence color was observed; then the surface of the pH-responsive liquid crystal polymer-aggregation-induced emission molecule fluorescent composite material was wiped clean, 2 drops of acidic phosphate buffer were added, and its fluorescence color was observed. The test was repeated 8 times.

[0091] The test results show that after adding alkaline phosphate buffer, the fluorescence color changes from green to yellow-green; and when acidic phosphate buffer is added, the fluorescence color changes to blue. After multiple cycles of introducing acid and alkali, the fluorescence color can still cycle between yellow-green and blue. This may be because TPE-4amidine has fluorescence quenching under alkaline conditions, and the fluorescence intensity decreases. However, the SLCP film in the pH-responsive liquid crystal polymer-aggregation-induced luminescence molecule fluorescent composite material can accurately control the electrostatic interaction within the SLCP film by adjusting the pH, adsorbing fluorescent molecules and forming a self-assembled structure, which can enhance the fluorescence intensity and emit green fluorescence. Based on this, by adjusting the pH value of each part of the fluorescent molecule conforming to the material, the information conversion application of different fluorescence signals in the same sample can be realized.
