Intramolecular Charge Transfer (ICT) is a crucial photophysical phenomenon that can be
used to improve the Stokes' shift in fluorescent dyes. The introduction of molecular …

The last decade has seen an increasingly large number of studies reporting on the
development of novel small organic conjugated systems for mitochondrial imaging …

With the development of nonlinear optics and new imaging methods, near-infrared (NIR)
light can excite contrast agents to probe biological specimens both functionally and …

The design and synthesis of high‐performance n‐type organic semiconductors are
important for the development of future organic optoelectronics. Facile synthetic routes to …

There exists a critical need in biomedical molecular imaging and diagnostics for molecular
sensors that report on slight changes to their local microenvironment with high spatial …

A highly fluorescent red-emitting pyrene derivative was synthesized and found to exhibit a
large Stokes shift (λem≈ 610 nm, Δλ∼ 130 nm, Δν∼ 4597 cm− 1). The probe molecule …

Herein, we reported a red-emitting probe (E)-4-(2-(8-hydroxy-julolidine-9-yl) vinyl)-1-
methylpyridin-1-ium iodide (HJVPI) on a rotor mechanism with an ultrahigh signal-to-noise …

A series of D-π-A fluorescent styryl pyrene probes were synthesized through the Wittig
reaction. The introduction of an electron-withdrawing substituent on the phenyl ring creates …

Crystal packing-dependent photochemical reactions of several functional olefins have been
explored, but not for 1-naphthylvinyl-4-quinoline (NVQ) and analogous N-methylated 1 …

The systematic synthesis of five 1-, 3-, 6-, and 8-tetrasubstituted asymmetric pyrenes with
electron donor and acceptor moieties is presented, together with an examination of their …
