Abstract

Aggregation-induced emission (AIE) active compounds and materials have become one of the hottest research topics worldwide, due to their unprecedented merits such as ultra-high fluorescence quantum efficiencies as aggregates or in solid state. Up to now, it is still extremely crucial and fundamental to expand the AIE-genic molecular systems for this research area. Here, we prepared two fluoranthene-modified tetraphenylethene (TPE) derivatives, TPE-FA and TPE-DFA, through the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling between boronate-bearing TPE and bromo-bearing fluoranthene under mild reaction condition. The conjugation between fluoranthene and TPE moieties assures that the as-prepared TPE-FA and TPE-DFA both possess aggrega-tion-enhanced emission (AEE) characteristics. The emission maximum of TPE-FA and TPE-DFA as aggregates in THF/water mixtures is at 477 nm and 494 nm, and the absolute quantum yields of the two compounds in solid films are as high as 74.1% and 40.4%, respectively. They can be utilized as fluorescent probes for picric acid with high sensitivity. Their quenching coef-ficients can be as high as 4×104 L·mol-1, while their detection limits can be lower than 1 μg·g-1. These AEE-active molecules are promising to act as fluorescent probes in the detection of other nitro-substituted electron-deficient molecules.
