Perylene-Based Smart Fluoroprobe with Dual Function: Ratiometric Response toward Hazardous Organic Peroxides and Pure White Light Generation Self-Assembly.

In this report, we have designed and synthesized a perylene-based smart fluoroprobe () in which the perylene core has been functionalized with the boronate group at the -position. shows a very fast and ratiometric response toward harmful organic peroxides (OPs) generated in old ethereal solvents auto-oxidation. The response toward OPs takes place with a visible color change from green to yellow, which could be easily observed with the naked eye.
