Abstract
The present work reports, for the first time, synthesis of dye incorporated o-phenylenediamine (OBB) with a view to obtain a conjugated oligomer with enhanced functionality. The structure was confirmed by IR studies, while the electronic transitions were confirmed by UV visible studies. The dye modified oligomer showed one order higher fluorescence intensity than the pristine Bismarck Brown (BB) dye. Confocal imaging showed red emission which could be utilized in near infra-red imaging. Density functional theory (DFT) studies were carried out to predict the theoretical properties of the oligomers. The energies of the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital orbital were computed to explore how the HOMO energies of the reactants initiated the electronic interactions between them. The interaction energies were correlated to conjugation/hyper conjugation stabilization energies of the natural bond orbitals (NBO) via the DFT method using the B3LYP functional with the 6-311G(d) basis set on Gaussian 09 software. Drug binding was evaluated through simulation of interaction energy, (ΔEA–x) with drugs such as captopril, propranolol, thiazide, and fentanyl. The results predicted that the oligomer could be developed into a fentanyl drug sensor.
