Abstract

Novel maleic anhydrides symmetrically substituted by two aromatic rings exhibit distinct emission behaviours: aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ), aggregation-induced emission (AIE), and dual-state emission (DSE) in both solution and the solid state. Appropriate modifications were made to turn ACQ/AIE into DSE and realize full-color DSE.
