A novel tricyanofuran dye was synthesized and the dye-in-polymer films were fabricated by spin-coating process. The spectroscopic properties of the dye in the solutions and polymer films were investigated by the absorption spectra and fluorescence emission spectra. It is found that the absorption and fluorescence maxima are largely red-shifted along with the increase of the solvent polarity. And the low values of fluorescence quantum yield in higher polarity solvents suggest the presence of twisted intramolecular charge transfer states of the dye. Moreover, the second order polarizability value of the novel dye was estimated based on the quantum-mechanical two-level model.

In this paper, LD-TCF, a targeting probe for lipid droplets (LDs) with a near-infrared emission wavelength and large Stokes shift, was fabricated for polarity detection by assembling a donor-π-acceptor (D-π-A) molecule with typical twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) characteristics. Surprisingly, the fluorescence emission wavelength of the newly constructed probe LD-TCF was stretched to 703 nm, and the Stokes shift was amplified to 126 nm. Furthermore, LD-TCF could specifically answer the change in polarity efficiently and did not experience interference from other biologically active materials.

Background: As an important reactive nitrogen species (RNS), HNO has been identified as an essential signaling molecule in many physiological processes. Ferroptosis produces a large amount of reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species. However, the detailed mechanism of HNO during process of ferroptosis is rarely reported, especially in the near-infrared range.

The colorless and odorless nerve agents can cause paralysis and even death. The development of novel composite-based microporous strips has allowed for the rapid and visual detection of diisopropyl phosphorofluoridate (DIPF) nerve agent mimics. The active methyl-containing tricyanofuran and 4-aminobenzotrifluoride diazonium salt were azo-coupled in a straightforward manner to produce a new benzotrifluoride (BFT)-comprising tricyanofuran (TCF) hydrazone colorimetric probe.

Pesticide residues pose a significant threat to food safety and human health, necessitating the development of novel detection tools. Pesticides can inhibit the activity of certain biological enzymes, so enzyme inhibition is one of the methods of pesticide detection. In this study, we developed a novel near-infrared fluorescent probe named based on the tricyanofuran structure, for ultrasensitive detection of carboxylesterase (CES).

Aim: Organic electro-optic (EO) materials have recently gained considerable attention owing to their advantages compared to inorganic EO materials. Among different kinds of organic EO materials, organic EO molecular glass exhibits desired prospect because of its high chromophore loading density and large macroscopic EO activity.

Introduction: The objective of this study is to design and synthesize a novel organic EO molecular glass JMG utilizing julolidine moiety as the electron donor, thiophene moiety as the conjugated bridge, trifluoromethyl substituted tricyanofuran derivate (Ph-CF3-TCF) as the electron acceptor.
