ABSTRACT: Hydroazaacene dicarboximide derivatives
with red to NIR absorptions are designed and synthesized,
which exhibit well-defined J-aggregation behaviors in both
solution and thin films. The absorption and emission of an
aggregate extend well into the NIR regime (¦Ëmax = 902
nm), manifesting particularly narrow bandwidth (fwhm =
152 cm−1) and is nearly transparent in the visible region.
Organic molecules with eminent near-infrared (NIR)
absorptions attract great interests due to their wide
applications in optical and electronic areas.1,2 NIR-emitting
molecules are even more appealing. Their applications include
night vision, optical communication, bioimaging, sensing, etc.3,4
NIR active molecules with minimal UV−vis absorptions are
useful for transparent photovoltaics, heat-blocking coating,
optical filter, information-security display, and so on.5
To achieve narrow bandgap in organic molecules, common
strategies are to construct large ¦Ð-conjugate scaffolds and install
electron-donating (D) and -accepting (A) groups.1,6 NIRemitting
molecules are more difficult to attain, because the
energy-gap law intrinsically disfavors the emission of narrowbandgap
systems. Moreover, molecules of large ¦Ð-systems with
D−A features inevitably tend to aggregate strongly. Aggregationinduced
quenching further impairs the emission. Thus, designing
efficient NIR emitters in the condensed state are particularly
challenging.7,8
Here we introduce a series of molecules designed to manifest
NIR optical activities by assuming J-aggregation. J-aggregated
dyes are of great theoretical interests and practical values.9,10
Unique properties of J-aggregates include red-shifted absorptions,
narrowed spectral bandwidth, small Stokes shift, and
superradiance ability.11,12 In terms of structure, J-aggregation
requires molecules to stack in a largely slipped arrangement.
However, such a packing motif is usually not favored by large
conjugated frameworks, because aromatic interactions tend to
maximize the face-to-face stacking (i.e., H-aggregate).13 As a
result, J-aggregated dyes are not abundant and mainly limited to
cyanine, squaraines, and chlorophylls.12,14 An elegant example of
designed J-aggregates was given by W¨¹rthner et al. with
perylenediimide, by deploying specific hydrogen bonding
interactions.15
We speculate that the pronounced red shift in the absorption
and strong emissions of J-aggregates may be exploited to develop
NIR chromophores and emitters. Namely, NIR J-aggregates may
be realized with molecules which absorb and emit in the visible
region in the single-molecule state. Based on this scheme, NIR Jaggregates
are obtained in this study. The most notable aggregate
exhibits intense absorption at 902 nm, with a particularly narrow
bandwidth (fwhm = 152 cm−1) at room temperature. Such a
wavelength represents one of the lowest J-band energies so far
known.16
After decades of study, there still remain a handful of unsettled
issues about the structure and photophysics of J-aggregates.11,17
The current molecules, having distinct chemical structures from
widely studied J-aggregate dyes but manifesting most welldefined
J-aggregation behaviors, may offer new opportunities to
unravel certain queries about J-aggregates.
To form J-aggregates, molecules necessarily assume an offset
aggregation motif, conducive for coherent exciton coupling
(Chart 1). We expect to achieve such molecular packing by
carefully employing steric interactions.15,18 Hydroazaacene
tetraimide derivative 1 is specifically designed to form NIR Jaggregates
for possessing the following features. First, the
molecule has an electron-rich hydroazaheptacene backbone
attached with four electron-withdrawing dicarboximide substituents.
Our previous study19 showed that such a unique
combination could give rise to narrow bandgap. Second, four
branched alkyl groups are tethered to the shape-persistent, bandlike
polycyclic skeleton. We believe that the number and
positions of these side chains are important for J-aggregate
formation.20 The exact face-to-face arrangement should be
disfavored due to the steric hindrance among the bulky side
chains (Chart 1).21 Another possibility, the twisted packing
motif,13b is also unfavorable due to the repulsive interactions
between alkyl side chains and aromatic backbone. Hence, the
offset geometry likely becomes the most favorable choice for

maintaining substantial aromatic interactions while minimizing
the steric hindrance.
The synthesis of molecule 1 started from 2,3,6,7-tetrabromo-
1,4,5,10-tetracarboxydiimide (4Br-NDI). At 35 ¡ãC, a 1:1
condensation product (2) was yielded even if excess benzene-
1,2,4,5-tetraamine was added (Chart 2). When the reaction
temperature was elevated to 80 ¡ãC, further condensation
between 2 and 4Br-NDI occurred, affording 1 as a deep green
solid (Scheme S1).
The optical properties of 1 in the single-molecule state were
first examined. In CHCl3 solution, compound 1 displayed
absorptions in red and NIR regions with clearly resolved vibronic
structures. The major peak at 796 nm was assigned to 0−0
transition (S0¡úS1, Figure 1a). The energy difference between 0−
0, 0−1, and 0−2 transitions was consistent with the stretching
frequency of aromatic rings.11 The emission spectrum of 1 in the
same solvent was a nearly mirror image of its absorption (Figure
2, inset). With the emission maximum at ¡«800 nm, a small
Stokes shift of merely 5 nm (79 cm−1) was manifested,
evidencing the rigidity of fluorophore skeleton. The fluorescence
quantum yield (¦µ) of 1 in CHCl3 was about 8%, which was
impressive considering the long wavelengths of emission.
Electrochemical characterizations confirmed that molecule 1
had a rather narrow band gap (Table 1 and Figure S10).
Remarkably, when 1 was dissolved in apolar solvent of nhexane
or n-octane, a very sharp and much red-shifted absorption
peak with large ¦Å was detected around 900 nm (Figure 1a). The
fwhm of the major peak was reduced from 378 cm−1 in CHCl3 to
merely 152 cm−1 in n-hexane, which was characteristic of
coherently delocalized excitonic state.22 Such distinct absorption
changes unambiguously indicated that 1 formed J-aggregate in
aliphatic solvents. Based on the spectral features, it was estimated
that the size of coherent domain in the aggregate was ¡«6−7
monomers at room temperature,23 and the transition dipole
moment was approximately enhanced from 13.3 D in monomer
to 14.5 D in aggregate.15d,22a Notably, the absorption of the
aggregate was shifted well into the NIR regime, with minimal
activity in the visible region. Thus, the n-hexane solution was
nearly colorless, while the CHCl3 solution had a green color. This
J-aggregate was found particularly stable, as no obvious
indication of dissociation was shown by the absorption spectrum
when the n-hexane solution was diluted even to 2 ¡Á 10−7 M at
room temperature. Upon elevating the temperature of an noctane
solution, the absorption peak at 902 nm was observed to
attenuate. The molecules were fully dissociated at about 100 ¡ãC,
as evidenced by the dominance of monomer absorption (Figure
1b). The 0−0 peak of monomer was found at 764 nm at this
temperature, corresponding to an energy difference of ¡«2000
cm−1 between monomer and J-aggregate in n-octane. Jaggregated
1 displayed a sharp emission peak at 904 nm in
aliphatic solvents, with an fwhm value of ¡«290 cm−1 (Figure 2).
Stokes shift of the aggregate was merely 2 nm (¡«25 cm−1). Such
significantly red-shifted and nearly vanished Stokes shift further
substantiated the J-type identity of the aggregate. It is noteworthy
that the aggregate was still emissive and the apparent ¦µ in nhexane
was about 2% (Table 1).
The polycyclic tetraimide skeleton of 1 was a planar structure
in the DFT-optimized geometry (Figure S11). Importantly, TDDFT
calculations revealed that the transition dipole moment was
oriented along the long axis of hydroazaacene moiety (Figure
S12). Hence in the expected sliding packing geometry, the
transition dipole of monomers would be favorably oriented,
facilitating coherent exciton coupling and emergence of Jaggregate.

The spectral behaviors of 1 well demonstrated our design of a
NIR J-aggregate. In order to further test the hypothesis that the
molecular shape is important for promoting J-aggregate, two
additional molecules of similar shapes were also synthesized and
studied. Molecule 3 was the oxidation product from 1 (Scheme
S1), which has nearly identical structure to that of 1 except for
losing two hydrogen atoms. Although this molecule has two

possible tautomers (benzenoid and quinonoid), only benzenoid
tautomer 3 was detected, which was confirmed with NMR
spectra by drawing analogy with previously reported molecules
of closely related structure.19
The absorption of 3 in the single-molecule state displayed a
major peak at 740 nm in CHCl3 (Figure 3). TD-DFT
calculations showed that this band mainly originated from a
mixed transition from HOMO-2 and HOMO-3 to LUMO
(Figure S11), which explained its relatively broad bandwidth. In
n-hexane, the absorption was red-shifted to nearly 850 nm, while
the bandwidth was evidently narrowed (Figure 3). Both these
features indicated the J-aggregate formation. Monomer 3 had a
lower emission ¦µ than 1, and the emission of aggregated 3 was
vastly quenched. Based on the trace emission from n-hexane
solution, the fluorescence of aggregate was shifted to 868 nm,
compared to 790 nm of monomer in CHCl3 (Figures S5 and S6).
Smaller Stokes shift and narrowed emission bandwidth were also
observed for aggregate 3.
Compound 4, prepared via condensation between 2 and 2,7-
di(tert-butyl)pyrene-4,5-dione (Scheme S1), also had a dihydrotetraazaheptacene
moiety, but one of the NDI subunits was
replaced by a pyrene group. Two t-butyl groups were installed on
pyrene to confer similar steric effect as in 1 and 3. While
monomer 4 showed multiple absorption vibration peaks in
CHCl3, the 0−0 transition at 650 nm was shifted to 718 nm in nhexane
(Figure 4a). A much narrower bandwidth (fwhm = 332
cm−1 in n-hexane vs 544 cm−1 in CHCl3) was also displayed,
corresponding to a coherent length of roughly 2−3 monomers in
the J-aggregate.23 The transition dipole moment was calculated
to increase from about 9.38 D for monomer to ¡«9.94 D in the
aggregate. The association strength of 4 appeared weaker than
that of 1. Its reversible association−dissociation process could be
followed by collecting absorption spectra at varied concentrations
(Figure 4b). Diminished J-band at lower concentrations
proved its origin from intermolecular aggregation. With the
monomer absorption maximum shown at 636 nm, an energy
shift of 1795 cm−1 from monomer to J-aggregate was identified
for 4. The temperature dependence of absorption revealed that
the dissociation of aggregate 4 was completed at about 60 ¡ãC at
2.0 ¡Á 10−6 M in n-octane (Figure S7).
Although monomer 4 was fairly emissive in CHCl3 (¦µ= 0.32),
the emission of aggregate was mostly quenched. The major
emission peak of aggregated 4 nearly superimposed with its Jband,
showing a Stokes shift of merely 25 cm−1 or so (Figure 4a).
In addition to this peak at 720 nm, another emission peak was
detected at ¡«850 nm (Figure S7), which likely originated from
excimer species.
Thin films of 1, 3, and 4 were prepared by drop-casting
respective solutions in n-hexane (1.0 ¡Á 10−4 M) on quartz slides.
Very similar absorption and emission features were displayed by
thin films to those in aliphatic solvents (Figure S9), indicating
similar aggregated structures under both conditions. Molecules 1
and 4 were still emissive in thin films, while the emission of 3 was
completely quenched.
In summary, three novel hydroazaacene dicarboximide
derivatives were synthesized, all of which exhibited significantly
red-shifted absorptions with narrowed band widths and smaller
Stokes shifts in aliphatic solvents, evidencing J-aggregate
formation. Aggregated 1 and 3 absorbed strongly in the NIR
range, with maxima near 900 and 850 nm, respectively. With an
absorption fwhm of only 152 cm−1, J-aggregated 1 was nearly
transparent to the visible light and emitting NIR light. Such
properties made it useful NIR materials.
The fact that three molecules having different backbones but
similar shapes all formed J-aggregates well illustrated the

hypothesis that the molecule geometry was relevant to the Jaggregate
formation in this system. With polycyclic backbones
providing the driving force for molecular stacking, carefully
designed steric interactions facilitated the slipped packing motif.
As a new type of structure exhibiting typical J-aggregate features,
these molecules will be of values for better understanding the Jaggregates
through further studies.

(23) The size of coherent domain (N) was calculated from: fmwhmon/
fmwhagg = ¡ÌN. This equation assumes that fwhm of J-band is solely
determined by motional narrowing, but the actual coherent size should
be larger when other mechanisms of line broadening (e.g., temperature
or disorder) occur. See refs: (a) Knapp, E. W. Chem. Phys. 1984, 1, 73.
