Abstract:
AbstractTwo aggregation induced emission (AIE)‐active poly(acrylates) bearing triphenylvinyl‐functionalized phenylcarbazole and triphenylamine pendants, respectively, were synthesized. Their fluorescence response to nitroaromatics and electrofluorochromic (EFC) properties were studied, whereby both the presence of nitroaromatics and applied voltages led to fluorescence quenching. In a very first attempt to perform EFC detection of nitroaromatics, it was surprisingly found that after initial fluorescence quenching, the presence of nitroaromatics unexpectedly turned on fluorescence at high applied voltages (>+1.0 V), demonstrating a promising approach for the EFC detection of nitroaromatic explosives.
