utilized in various fluorescence imaging techniques. However, many existing modification strategies could not balance the performance (such as brightness, photostability, water solubility, and permeability) of fluorophores. Herein we report a general strategy to enhance the performance of donor–acceptor-type fluorophores by introducing azetidine-containing heterospirocycles to the commonly used fluorophore

A class of dicyanoisophorone derivatives 1-5 with electron-donating groups has been prepared by a two-step condensation reaction. Fluorescence both in solution and in pure solid state are measured. It is found that dicyanoisophorone derivatives 1-5 exhibit fluorescence in both solution and pure solid state. An enhancement of fluorescence in solid state probably results from the aggregation-induced emission. It is also found that dicyanoisophorone derivatives 1-5 show large Stoke's shifts in solution as well as in pure solid state. The origin of fluorescence of dicyanoisophorone derivatives depends on the nature of substituents, with a strong push pull chromophores dicyanoisophorone system, red or orange solid-state fluorescence is obtained.

Dicyanoisophorone derivatives (1-3), which contain a strong push pull chromophores system, have beep prepared by a two-step condensation reaction, and their fluorescence in solution, polymeric thin film and pure solid state are measured. It is found that 1-3 exhibit no or weak fluorescence in both solution and pure solid state, but strong red fluorescence in polymeric thin film. Mechanism study implies that the enhanced fluorescence of 1-3 in polymeric thin film results from the restriction of intramolecular vibrational and rotational motions. In addition, it is also found that the polarity of polymeric matrix has influence over the fluorescence of dicyanoisophorone derivatives, using PMMA as polymeric matrix, a fluorescent thin film with a strong red emission is obtained.
