Abstract

A novel borondifluoride curcuminoid complex TB showing an AIE effect is designed and prepared. The photophysical properties were investigated by tuning the TICT and AIE state in various solutions. In particular, the TB loaded nanoparticles acted as an excellent reagent for cellular imaging.
