A lipid derivative of difluoroboron-iododibenzoylmethane (BF(2)dbm(I)OC(12)H(25)) was synthesized via Claisen condensation and boronation. Green photoluminescence is observed for the complex in the solid state. Unlike the previously reported difluoroboron-avobenzone (BF(2)AVB) complex, which exhibited significantly red-shifted fluorescence upon mechanical perturbation, the emission of a BF(2)dbm(I)OC(12)H(25) solid film is quenched when the sample is smeared under air but becomes orange under nitrogen. Spectroscopic and lifetime studies suggest that smearing brings the singlet excited state closer to the triplet state, thus increasing the coupling between the two states. As a result, intersystem crossing from the singlet to the triplet excited state is facilitated, and the total luminescence intensity is quenched at room temperature.

Flavonoids, a group of natural pigments, have attracted notable attention for their intrinsic fluorescent bioactive properties and potential therapeutic implications. Recent studies have suggested that the photoexcitation of specific flavonoids can also lead to the formation of triplet states, thereby potentially enhancing their applications in photoactivated antioxidant mechanisms. However, the crucial mechanism details about triplet state formation are still poorly understood.

Transparent wood with high transmittance and versatility has attracted great attention as an energy-saving building material. Many studies have focused on luminescent transparent wood, while the research on organic afterglow transparent wood is an interesting combination. Here, we use luminescent difluoroboron β-diketonate (BFbdk) compounds, methyl methacrylate (MMA), delignified wood, and initiators to prepare room-temperature phosphorescent transparent wood by thermal initiation polymerization.

Photosensitizers (PSs) featuring type I reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and aggregation-induced emission (AIE) activity offer a promising solution to achieve non-invasive and precise theranostics. However, the reported AIE luminogens (AIEgens) with both AIE characteristic and strong type-I ROS generation are still scarce and the structure-property relationship is still unclear. Herein, an innovative acceptor elongation boosted intersystem crossing (AEBIC) design strategy has been proposed to endow the AIEgen strong type-I ROS producibility.

Multiple resonance (MR)-type thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters have garnered significant interest due to their narrow full width at half maximum (FWHM) and high electroluminescence efficiency. However, the planar structures and large singlet-triplet energy gaps (ΔEs) characteristic of MR-TADF molecules pose challenges to achieving high-performance devices. Herein, two isomeric compounds, p-TPS-BN and m-TPS-BN, are synthesized differing in the connection modes between a bulky tetraphenylsilane (TPS) group and an MR core.
