Article Abstract

Distyrylbenzene derivatives with substituents on the vinylene moieties have been studied due to interest in their optoelectronic properties. In this study, we focused on distyrylbenzene derivatives with monofluoroolefin structures, expecting intermolecular H-F interactions in the solid state. UV-vis and fluorescence spectra of the obtained compounds were measured and compared with those of unsubstituted distyrylbenzene. The crystal structures of each compound were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction and Hirshfeld surface analysis to understand the intermolecular contacts.

The photoprocesses of diethylamino derivatives of 1,4- and 1,3-distyrylbenzenes in MeCN were studied using absorption, luminescence, H NMR, and laser kinetic spectroscopy. Compounds and undergo intersystem crossing to the triplet state and exhibit delayed fluorescence. It was concluded that dye radical anions and radical cations are formed upon dismutation of the triplet state in the presence of an electron donor or acceptor.

Flexible optoelectronics is the need of the hour as the market moves toward wearable and conformable devices. Crystalline π-conjugated materials offer high performance as active materials compared to their amorphous counterpart, but they are typically brittle. This poses a significant challenge that needs to be overcome to unfold their potential in optoelectronic devices.

Conjugated oligoelectrolytes (COEs) comprise a class of fluorescent reporters with tunable optical properties and lipid bilayer affinity. These molecules have proven effective in a range of bioimaging applications; however, their use in characterizing specific subcellular structures remains restricted. Such capabilities would broaden COE applications to understand cellular dysfunction, cell communication, and the targets of different pharmaceutical agents.

Lipid droplets (LDs) are extremely active organelles that play a crucial role in energy metabolism, membrane formation, and the production of lipid-derived signaling molecules by regulating lipid storage and release. Nevertheless, directly limited by the lack of superior fluorescent probes, studies of LDs dynamic motion velocity have been rarely reported, especially for nuclear LDs. Herein, a novel organic fluorescent probe Lipi-Bright has been rationally developed based on bridged cyclization of distyrylbenzene.
