Abstract:A new boron-containing heterocyclic scaffold – borindolizine – is reported as a new heterocyclic scaffold with broadly tunable fluorescence and a high Stokes shift. Two classes of emitters were synthesized through rational scaffold changes resulting in blue-emitting carboxyborindolizines (λmax,em = 431 – 459 nm) and green emitting aryl borindolizines (λmax,em = 488 – 519 nm). Experimental structure-emission trends were used to validate a computational spectral prediction model and subsequently used to design a… Show more
