Popis: Owing to their electron-withdrawing nature, nitro-groups are desirable in the design of electron-deficient light-sensitizing aromatic π-conjugated molecules, but most nitro-aromatics are not fluorescent. Here, the authors show how balanced donor-acceptor coupling ensures fast radiative deactivation and slow intersystem crossing in bis-nitrotetraphenylpyrrolopyrroles.
