AI Article Synopsis
- A new series of monoboron and bisboron complexes using benzothiazole-hydrazone chelates were developed, which show weak fluorescence in fluid solutions.
- These complexes become fluorescent in high-viscosity environments or when aggregated due to reduced intramolecular rotation.
- The study included X-ray diffraction and theoretical calculations to clarify the aggregation-induced emission (AIE) properties, and highlighted their significant Stokes shifts and efficient solid-state emission as promising for future applications.
Article Abstract
A new family of aggregation-induced emission (AIE)-active monoboron and bisboron complexes based on benzothiazole-hydrazone chelates was synthesized. These complexes showed very weak fluorescence in fluid solution due to active intramolecular rotation and were emissive in high-viscosity solvents or in the aggregation state. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses and theoretical calculations were carried out to explain AIE behavior. The large Stokes shifts (3590-7400 cm-1) and relatively highly efficient solid-state emission make these complexes valuable AIE luminophores for further potential applications.
