文摘

The vibrational Raman spectra of several series of aromatic and quinoidal compounds have been analyzed considering the downshifts and upshifts of the frequencies of the relevant Raman bands as a function of the number of repeating units. Oligothiophenes, oligophenylene-vinylenes, and oligoperylenes (oligophenyls) derivatives are studied in a common context. These shifts are taken as spectroscopic fingerprints of the changes in π-conjugation. For a given family, aromatic and quinoidal oligomers have been studied together, and according to their Raman frequency shifts located in the two-well BLA–energy curve of their ground electronic state as a function of the bond-length-alternation pattern (BLA). The connection among BLA values, π-conjugation, and Raman frequencies is taken here as the basis of the study. These Raman shifts/BLA changes have been related to important electronic properties of these one-dimensional linear π-electron delocalized systems such as quinoidal (polyene) and aromatic characters.
