Abstract
The optical materials based on excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) have garnered significant attention due to their unique photophysical properties and applications in sensors and imaging agents (probes). These materials exhibit an intrinsic four‐level photocycle scheme through the enol (E)‐keto (K) phototautomerization process, resulting in a large Stokes shift, environmental sensitivity, and potential for ratiometric sensing. This review primarily focuses on elucidating the luminescence mechanism and structure‐property relationships of recent ESIPT molecules, as well as exploring the sensing applications of phosphorescent functional materials.
期刊介绍:
Organic chemistry is the fundamental science that stands at the heart of chemistry, biology, and materials science. Research in these areas is vigorous and truly international, with three major regions making almost equal contributions: America, Europe and Asia. Asia now has its own top international organic chemistry journal—the Asian Journal of Organic Chemistry (AsianJOC)
The AsianJOC is designed to be a top-ranked international research journal and publishes primary research as well as critical secondary information from authors across the world. The journal covers organic chemistry in its entirety. Authors and readers come from academia, the chemical industry, and government laboratories.
