10a‐Aza‐10b‐borapyrenes: Heterocyclic Analogues of Pyrene with Internalized BN Moieties

Abstract

Très BN: The introduction of a BN dipole into the internal positions of pyrene (see scheme) provides a novel platform for heterocyclic fluorescent species. Comparisons of the photophysical and redox properties between the CC and BN analogues reveal both similarities and differences.
