Photobases are compounds that become strong bases after electronic excitation. Recent exptl. studies have highlighted the photobasicity of the 5-R quinoline compounds, demonstrating a strong substituent dependence to the pKa*. In this paper, we describe our systematic study of how the thermodn. driving force for photobasicity is tuned through substituents in four families of nitrogen-containing heterocyclic aromatics We show that substituent position and identity both significantly impact the pKa*. We demonstrate that the substituent effects are additive and identify many disubstituted compounds with substantially greater photobasicity than the most photobasic 5-R quinoline compound identified previously. We show that the addition of a second fused benzene ring to quinoline, along with two electron-donating substituents, lowers the S0 → SPBS vertical excitation energy into the visible region while still maintaining a pKa* > 14. Overall, the structure-function relationships developed in this study provide new insights to guide the development of new photocatalysts that employ photobasicity.
