Abstrakt: The development of novel luminescent radicals, characterized by their unique doublet emission, endows a significant challenge. In this study, we reported the synthesis of a luminescent neutral radical, BCzAnM-R, tailored by two carbazolyl groups and an anthryl group to achieve a nonalternant structure. It exhibited near-infrared emission with a peak at 1020 nm in toluene. Interestingly, its corresponding cation, BCzAnM-C, was synthesized through an unconventional SnCl 2 -mediated reduction-aromatization-oxidation reaction in one-pot and gram-scale. The cation demonstrated remarkable stability for up to weeks in ambient conditions and facilitated the silica-gel chromatography isolation as an organic salt with SnCl 3 - as the counter ion. The carbazolyl groups effectively modulate molecular structures, photophysical properties, and stabilities. Notably, BCzAnM-R represents the first luminescent triarylmethyl radical with two carbazolyl groups directly attached to the central carbon.
