Abstract
Four D−π−A dyads based on various imidazole derivatives donor and o-carborane acceptor moiety have been designed and synthesized for efficient tunable solid-state fluorescence and low-temperature phosphorescence. The results showed that four dyads are all AIEgens with dual emission properties in solution, highly solid-state emission, and low-temperature phosphorescence. The dual emissions were attributed to the locally excited (LE) and twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) emission. The crystallographic measurements and theoretical calculations demonstrated that the strong phosphorescence with a long lifetime up to 2.18 s at low temperature may be attributed to the C–H⋅⋅⋅N, C–H⋅⋅⋅π interactions, strong TICT effect and the reduced vibration coupling by attaching a bulky carborane moiety to the chromophore.
