As one of the most commonly used organic fluorescent dyes, recently rhodamines have been successfully employed in temperature sensing. However, few works have been reported on their temperature-sensitive properties, which inevitably limiting their further applications. In order to solve such problem, we investigated temperature-sensitive properties of rhodamine 110, 123, 19, 6G, B and 3B focusing on their fluorescence emission spectra; and analyzed them in the molecular structure perspective. It is demonstrated that the fluorescence emission intensities of all studied rhodamines decreased with higher temperature, which inevitably enhances the probability of collisions among molecules, thus definitely leads to energy loss in fluorescence emission. While these rhodamines still have various temperature sensitivities mainly due to the substitutes: the substitute on the benzene carboxylate has little effect; the amino substituents of the three-ring xanthene enhance the temperature sensitivity due to their rotation weakening the rigidity of the three-ring xanthene; and the methyl substituents on the three-ring xanthene reduce the temperature sensitivity by enhancing the rigidity and stability of the three-ring xanthene as well as hindering the rotation of ethylamino. These findings can also be extended to other organic fluorescent dyes proved by coumarins comparable to rhodamines. The results provided by this work can be useful reference and guidance to further develop organic fluorescent dyes especially for temperature sensing. (C) 2022 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
