“…Surprisingly, CC-TPE in dichloromethane displayed strong green emission, but in the solid power and thin solid film, CC-TPE showed yellow emission with a swift decrease in the F f , which does not correspond with the AIE characteristics normally exhibited by the compounds containing tetraphenylethene groups. [14][15][16]18,21 From the structures of CC-TPE, CC-TriPE and CC-TPA, CC-TPE and CC-TPA were obtained by linking the tetraphenylethene (TPE) and triphenylamine (TPA) units to the V-shaped fusedbiscoumarin core through the phenyl group of the TPE and TPA units, while CC-TriPE was obtained by directly linking the V-shaped fused-biscoumarin core to the ethylene group of the triphenylethene (TriPE) unit, which could result in a more rigid structure and considerably twisted conformation upon aggregation for CC-TriPE.…”
