The absorption and fluorescence characteristics of 3-(4′-dimethylaminophenyl)-1-(2-thienyl)prop-2-en-1-one (DMATP) have been investigated in different solvents. DMATP dye exhibits a large red shift in both absorption and emission spectra as solvent polarity increases, indicating a large change in the dipole moment of molecules upon excitation due to an intramolecular charge transfer interaction. The fluorescence quantum yield depends strongly on the properties of the solvents, which was attributed to positive and negative solvatokinetic effects. A crystalline solid of DMATP gave an excimer like emission at 570 nm due to the excitation of molecular aggregates. This is expected from the idealized crystal structure of the dye that belongs to the B-type class of Steven's classification. A dye solution ca. 10−3 mol dm−3 in CHCl3 gave a good laser emission in the range 480–560 nm with emission maximum at 530 nm upon pumping by nitrogen laser (λex=337.1 nm). The excitation energy transfer from 7-dimethylamino-4-methyl coumarine (DMC) to DMATP has been also studied in CHCl3 and the values of energy transfer rate constant and critical transfer distance indicate a Főrster-type mechanism. The photoreactivity and net photochemical quantum yield of DMATP in chloromethane solvents are also determined. We applied semiempirical MO calculation using AMI and ZINO/S calculation to understand the geometric and electronic structure of DMATP molecule in both ground and excited states.
