Abstract: A β-diketone-bridged chromophore-containing acrylic monomer, 1-(4-dimethylaminophenyl)-4-methyl-4-pentene-1,3-diketone(DMPDK) and its saturated model compound, 1-(4-dimethyl aminophenyl)-1,3-butanedione(DMBDK) were synthesized and investigated by spectroscopy. It was found that the fluorescence intensity of DMPDK was much lower than that of DMBDK at the same concentration, which indicates that DMPDK, a β-diketone-bridged acrylic monomer having chromophore moiety, also showed fluorescence structural self-quenching effect(SSQE). Photo-induced tautomerization of DMBDK in acetonitrile was studied by means of UV and fluorescence spectroscopy. The results imply that the fluorescence method is capable of monitoring tautomerization of some fluorescent β-diketones.
