A novel redox-fluorescence switch based on a triad containing ferrocene and perylene diimide units.
By taking advantage of the features of ferrocene as a redox-active electron donor unit and perylene diimide as a fluorescence unit, a new redox fluorescence switch can be constructed on the basis of this triad.
