A novel fluorene-based aggregation-induced emission (AIE)-active gold(i) complex with crystallization-induced emission enhancement (CIEE) and reversible mechanochromism characteristics†
Abstract
A new fluorene-based AIE-active gold(I) complex was designed and synthesized. The novel luminogen exhibits a crystallization-induced emission enhancement (CIEE) effect and reversible mechanochromic behavior with fluorescence changes between green and yellow emissions.
