Considerable achievements on multiple emission capabilities and tunable wavelengths have been obtained in inorganic luminescent materials. However, the development of organic counterparts remains a grand challenge. Herein we report a series of 2-/2,6-aryl substituted boron-dipyrromethene dyes with wide-range and multi-fluorescence emissions across red and near infrared in their aggregation states.

A new family of BODIPY dyes (PPB1-4) based on the pyridine-pyrimidine hybrid structure has been synthesized. These dyes show high cyan fluorescence in hexane with quantum yields (Φ) ranging from 0.33 to 0.

A new family of BODIPY analogues (BDB1-8) derived from benzothiazole-pyrimidine-based bidentate ligands was synthesized and fully characterized. The photophysical properties of these boron complexes were measured both in solution and solid-state. These new luminophores exhibited intense fluorescence with high quantum yields ranging from 0.

A new family of pyrimidine-based BF2 complexes () with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) and mechanochromic luminescence properties were developed. These compounds exhibit intense fluorescence in their aggregation/solid-state resulting from their large Stokes shift and AIE. X-ray crystallographic analysis shows that the weak intermolecular interactions by fixing the molecular conformations of are responsible for the intense fluorescence in solid-state.
