Photophysical Properties of a Donor-π-Acceptor Distyrylbenzene Derivative in Solution and Solid state

Amphiphilic rhomboidal metallacycles with aggregation-induced emission and aggregation-caused quenching luminogens for white-light emission and bioimaging

“…These data suggest that the emission wavelengths of 3b depended largely upon the solvent. This property of the metallacycles is related to solvent effects of the aniline group 58,59 Similar dependence of emission wavelengths on the solvents was observed for metallacycles 3a and 3c , and the detailed results have been displayed in Fig. S43, S44 and Tables S2, S4 ESI †.…”

New White Light-Emitting Halochromic Stilbenes with Remarkable Quantum Yields and Aggregation-Induced Emission

“…[36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44] However, only a limited number of halochromic white light emitters have been synthesized so far, and the low quantum yield is still a critical issue. Herein, in continuation of our previous reports, [45][46][47][48][49][50] two highly e cient donor-π-acceptor and donor-π-donor stilbene-based uorescent chromophores (Figure 1) with white light emission introduced and their photophysical properties investigated.…”

A novel donor–π–acceptor halochromic 2,6-distyrylnaphthalene chromophore: synthesis, photophysical properties and DFT studies

“…[21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28] This exceptional feature enables white light emitter chromophores to be utilized in single-component white organic light-emitting diodes (WOLEDs). 29 In this study, in continuation of our previous reports 13, [30][31][32][33] we synthesized a new D-p-A 2,6-distyryl naphthalene molecule containing an amino group as electron-donating and sulfonyl group as electron-withdrawing group in the terminals of the pconjugated system. Two sulfonyl groups were used in ortho and para positions of the benzene ring in the acceptor terminal of the molecule in order to have a strong push-pull effect.…”

“…The synthesis of uorophores incorporating distyrylbenzene pconjugated systems has attracted considerable attention because of their high potential applications in optoelectronic and sensory devices as well as uorescent probes in medical utilization and in organic light-emitting diodes. [1][2][3][4][5][6] On the other hand, organic molecules that possess intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) character are important in a large number of areas, such as organic solar cells, polarity probes and nonlinear optics. 7,8 Donor-p-acceptor (D-p-A; where D is an electron-donating group, A is an electron-accepting group, and p is a conjugating moiety) systems with different congurations have been extensively developed because their absorption spectra and energy gaps can be readily tuned by controlling the ICT character using different electron-donor and electron-acceptor groups.…”
