We have designed and synthesized a series of 9-anthrylpyrazole derivatives 1,4-bis(3-(9-anthryl)-1-pyrazolylmethyl)benzene (1), 1-(3-(9-anthryl)-1-pyrazolylmethyl)-4-(5-(9-anthryl)-1-pyrazolylmethyl)benzene (2), 1,4-bis(3-(9-anthryl)-1-pyrazolyl)benzene (3), and 1-(3-(9-anthryl)-1-pyrazolyl)-4-(5-(9-anthryl)-1-pyrazolyl)benzene (4). All compounds formed two types of crystals that exhibited anthracene-arrangement-dependent emission colors. For instance, crystal 1a with strong π-overlap between anthracene moieties exhibited an emission maximum at 515 nm, while 1b with no such interchromophore interactions displayed an emission band at 424 nm. The fluorescence quantum yield (ΦF) measurements showed that the blue-emitting crystals have high quantum yields (ΦF = 0.46 for 1b, 0.90 for 2a, 0.91 for 2b, 0.77 for 3b, and 0.51 for 4a), suggesting their potential as blue emitters in optoelectronics.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
