Unveiling the aggregation-induced chromic emission of triazine anchored BODIPYs

Abstract

BODIPY derivatives based on 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine have been successfully synthesized and characterized. These molecular systems demonstrate restricted intramolecular rotation (RIR) and J-aggregation, leading to aggregation-induced chromic emission (AICE), with notable green-red fluorescence color switching. Additionally, these derivatives exhibit distinctive self-assembly behaviour and solid-state emission properties. These findings showcase their potential for diverse applications across multiple fields.
