Popis: | At present, we have realized that the aggregation-induced emission (AIE) achieves the purpose of fluorescence enhancement by restricting rotations to reduce intermolecular or intramolecular energy loss. Based on this idea, we synthesized a novel fluorene-based fluorescent compound with a restricted rotor rotation on the stator through the Suzuki coupling reaction. The luminescence effect was evaluated by comparing its fluorescence intensity with that of the control compound. Finally, theoretical calculations showed that the presence of methyl groups hindered the thermal rotation of the fluorenyl groups. Thus, the results indicated that the fluorescence of this compound was better than that of the control compound. A new synthetic pathway for high-efficiency AIE-based fluorescent luminogens has been developed. |
