摘要: 本文以CO2和三羟甲基丙烷三缩水甘油醚为起始原料,通过环加成反应成功制得了具有五元环状碳酸酯结构的三羟甲基丙烷基五元环碳酸酯(TPTE). 在此基础上,以TPTE和邻苯二胺为前驱体、乙醇为溶剂,采用溶剂热法合成出量子产率达38%的红色荧光碳点(R-CDs). 结构表征表明,所得R-CDs平均粒径为9.41 nm,其碳核呈现高度石墨化特征,表面富含羟基、氨基等活性官能团. 光学性能测试显示,在乙醇溶液中R-CDs展现出明显的激发独立特性,其荧光峰呈现三指峰,峰位分别为599、648和702 nm,其最佳激发波长位于535 nm,对应荧光寿命为6.46 ns. 通过理论计算与光谱分析证实,该发光特性源于碳核内扩展的π共轭体系诱导的(π, π*)电子跃迁. 值得注意的是,当与聚乙烯吡咯烷酮(PVP)复合时,R-CDs的紫外吸收和荧光发射特性未发生显著变化,表明PVP基体与R-CDs间未产生明显的电子相互作用. 基于其优异的光学性能,将R-CDs/PVP复合物作为荧光粉,与360 nm紫外LED芯片集成构建了红光发光器件. 所制备LED器件的CIE色坐标(0.42, 0.21)精确落入红光区域,展现出良好的单色性. 特别值得关注的是,本研究通过将CO2有效转化为功能化环碳酸酯前驱体,实现了CO2向高附加值碳材料的高效间接固定,为温室气体资源化利用提供了创新思路. 这种集高量子产率荧光材料开发与碳减排技术于一体的研究策略,在光电器件和绿色化学领域均具有重要应用价值.

Abstract: This work successfully synthesized a five-membered cyclic carbonate compound, tris(hydroxymethyl)propyl pentacyclic carbonate (TPTE), using CO2 and trihydroxymethylpropane triglycidyl ether as starting materials via cycloaddition reaction. Subsequently, red-emissive carbon dots (R-CDs) with a quantum yield of 38% were prepared through a solvothermal method using TPTE and o-phenylenediamine as precursors and ethanol as the solvent. Structural characterization revealed that the obtained R-CDs exhibited an average particle size of 9.41 nm, with a highly graphitized carbon core and surface-rich hydroxyl and amino functional groups. Optical performance testing demonstrated that the R-CDs in ethanol solution displayed distinct excitation-independent characteristics, showing three-fingered emission peaks at 599, 648, and 702 nm under excitation at 535 nm, accompanied by a fluorescence lifetime of 6.46 ns. Theoretical calculations and spectroscopic analyses confirmed that these luminescent properties originated from extended π-conjugated systems within the carbon core inducing (π, π*) transitions. Notably, when combined with polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), the ultraviolet-visible absorption and fluorescence emission characteristics of R-CDs remained essentially unchanged, indicating negligible electronic interactions between PVP matrices and R-CDs. Leveraging their excellent optical properties, R-CDs/PVP composites were employed as phosphors integrated with a 360 nm ultraviolet LED chip to fabricate red-emitting devices. The prepared LED exhibited CIE chromaticity coordinates of (0.42, 0.21), precisely falling within the red light region with high monochromaticity. Significantly, this research achieved efficient indirect fixation of CO2 by converting it into functionalized cyclic carbonate precursors, providing an innovative approach for greenhouse gas valorization. This integrated strategy combining high-quantum-yield fluorescent material development with carbon reduction technology holds substantial application potential in optoelectronic devices and green chemistry.
