title: Synthesis of 1,4-bis[2,2-bis(4-alkoxyphenyl)vinyl]benzenes and side chain modulation of their solid-state emission.
abstract: A series of 1,4-bis[2,2-bis(4-alkoxyphenyl)vinyl]benzene molecules with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) activity were synthesized. The conformations and packing arrangements of these molecules in the solid state can be adjusted by changing the side chains, which subsequently modulates their solid-state emission. The fluorescence quantum yield of 1e with the n-C(6)H(13) side chain in the solid state could reach up to 60.3% in the solid state.
