Abstract

The synthesis and photoluminescent properties of novel α-amino acids are described in which the biaryl benzotriazinone-containing chromophores were found to display dual emission fluorescence via locally excited (LE) and twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) states. The intensity of each emission band could be controlled by the electronics and position of the substituents, and this led to the design of a 2-methoxyphenyl analogue that, due to twisting, displayed bright TICT fluorescence, solvatochromism, and pH sensitivity.
