1-Methyl-3-(N-(1,8-naphthalimidyl)ethyl)imidazolium (MNEI) has potential as a versatile sensor that can measure the electronegativity of anions based on the fluorescence intensity upon irradiation. To clarify the factors that determine the fluorescence intensity, constrained density functional theory (CDFT) was applied to explore the electron transfer (ET) states of MNEI halide species (MNEI–X; X = F, Cl, Br, I). According to the CDFT potential energy surface, intra-molecular ET (SM1) states on MNEI are responsible for the intensity of absorption and fluorescence spectra. However, inter-molecular ET (SET) states between MNEI and X are certainly responsible for fluorescence quenching. Hence, the energetic difference between the SM1 state and the SET state (ΔEM1_ET) is a crucial factor that determines the fluorescence intensity in the spectra of MNEI–X complexes. ΔEM1_ET decreases as the electronegativity of X decreases (i.e., F > Cl > Br > I). This explains the fluorescence intensity of MNEI–X.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
