Molecular photoswitches enable dynamic control of processes with high spatiotemporal
precision, using light as external stimulus, and hence are ideal tools for different research …

Hemiindigoids comprise a range of natural and synthetic scaffolds that share the same
aromatic hydrocarbon backbone as well as promising biological and optical properties. The …

The development of dual‐state emissive (DSE) fluorophores, ie organic molecules showing
balanced emission in both solution and as molecular solids, has recently become an …

Aurones and their synthetic analogues possess a wide-range of pharmacological activities,
which have been deciphered by various studies in the last decades. Aurones with potential …

Fluorescent small molecules are powerful tools for imaging α-synuclein pathology in vitro
and in vivo. In this work, we explore benzofuranone as a potential scaffold for the design of …

Hydrogen sulfide detection and sensing is an area of interest from both an environmental
and a biological perspective. While many methods are currently available, the most sensitive …

Over the last two decades fluorescent materials have strongly influenced the technological
development of modern societies. Ranging from organic photovoltaic to OLED TVs, from …

This paper reports on a study of the photophysical properties, density functional theory (DFT)
calculations, infrared (IR), ultraviolet (UV) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) …

Density functional theory (DFT) and time‐dependent DFT (TD‐DFT) have been employed to
elucidate the radical scavenging capacity and the UV–Vis spectral property of several …

Aurones are a class of well-studied natural compounds primarily responsible for the yellow
pigment in flowering plants and have been shown to have fluorescent properties as well as …
