Abstract
A nitro group is a common fluorescence quencher, but its quenching efficiency can be easily affected by the surrounding environment. To date, there has been no systematic study on the effects of electron-withdrawing groups on the quenching efficiency of nitro groups. Herein, by virtue of experimental validation and theoretical calculations, we found that strong electron-withdrawing groups, such as pyridinium and dicyanovinyl groups, are detrimental to the quenching effect of nitro groups. Decreasing the electron-withdrawing ability could restore the nitro group’s quenching effect.
