In this article, we have shown that it is possible to design large optical gap squaraines displaying a sizable fs regime TPA activity in the technologically relevant 700-800 nm region. Also, we unequivocally assigned, through single crystal X-ray analysis, the regiochemistry of the squaric acid condensation reaction at the 3-position of unsubstituted indole derivatives. Finally, we demonstrated that derivative 1 TPA activity in the optical limiting relevant ns regime exceeds that of one of the most promising quadrupolar derivative so far employed.

Abstract
In this article, we have shown that it is possible to design large optical gap squaraines displaying a sizable fs regime TPA activity in the technologically relevant 700-800 nm region. Also, we unequivocally assigned, through single crystal X-ray analysis, the regiochemistry of the squaric acid condensation reaction at the 3-position of unsubstituted indole derivatives. Finally, we demonstrated that derivative 1 TPA activity in the optical limiting relevant ns regime exceeds that of one of the most promising quadrupolar derivative so far employed.File in questo prodotto:
