Emissive Room-Temperature Ionic Liquids Enabled by Dialkylphospholium-Based Tetracyclic Cores with Bulky Counter Anions

Metal-free ionic liquids that exhibit intense fluorescence in the visible region of over 500 nm in the fluid state remain scarce. Although small π-conjugated frameworks combining electron-donating and...

Temperature‐Responsive Near‐Infrared Emission Enabled by Reversible π‐Umpolung with an Alkenyl‐Strapped Diarylboryl Unit

Coordination of a Lewis base switches an electron-accepting tricoordinate boron center into an electron-donating tetracoordinate one. An alkenyl-strapped diphenylthienylboryl π-system undergoes phosp....

Kinetically Controlled Self‐Assembly of a Lipophilic Fluorophore with Phenylalanine‐Based Diamides in Artificial Lipid Droplets

Fibrous aggregates in triolein are constructed from a lipophilic donor–acceptor fluorophore bearing two phenylalanine-based diamide units. Spectroscopic analyses and fluorescence imaging revealed a k...

Unsymmetric thieno-phospha-rhodamines: a new class of near-infrared fluorescent probes for stimuli-responsive organelle imaging

We report thieno-phospha-rhodamine (TPR) dyes as a novel class of near-infrared (NIR)-emissive fluorophores featuring an unsymmetric π-skeleton. TPR dyes exhibit emission maxima near 800 nm, large Sto...
