Fluorescence Investigations of Oxygen-Doped Simple Amine Compared with Fluorescent PAMAM Dendrimer
Blue emission of oxygen-doped tertiary amine (triethylamine), a key unit of fluorescent poly(amido amine) dendrimer, was demonstrated. It was found that the fluorescence intensity could be further enhanced if the tertiary amines locate densely in the dendrimer interior as the branching sites. Moreover, a solvatochromic phenol blue, instead of oxygen, is able to induce the blue fluorescence of the tertiary amino-branching sites based on a guaranteed host-guest complexation of phenol blue molecules and dendrimer interior.
