In this paper we report the synthesis and crystal structures of emissive organic molecule (la) based on pyrido[3,4-g]isoquinoline framework as well as its isomers 1b and 1c. The emission quantum yields decrease after transformation of pyridine moieties in la into the cyclic-amides in 1b and 1c. The fluorescent spectral results reveal that la, 1b, and 1c exhibit no AIE behavior. This is tentatively attributed to intramolecular weak C center dot center dot center dot H interactions, which may impede the intramolecular rotations based on the crystal structures of la and 1c. Interestingly, 1a, 1b, and 1c are emissive in the solid state, and among them la possesses the highest emission quantum yield (0.22). Moreover, the fluorescence of la in solution and solid state can be reversibly tuned by reactions with trifluoroacetic acid and triethylamine. Microarea PL studies reveal that microrods of la and these after exposure to HCl gas show typical waveguide behavior. (C) 2013 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
