Circularly polarized luminescence of AIE-active chiral O-BODIPYs induced via intramolecular energy transfer†
Abstract
Two AIE-active chiral BINOL-based O-BODIPY enantiomers (R/S-5) were synthesized and showed mirror-image red-color CPL induced via intramolecular energy transfer. The chiroptical properties of the molecules indicate that the chirality of electronic ground and excited states is stable and independent of aggregation.
