Solid State and Aggregation Induced Emissive Chromophores by Multi‐component Syntheses

Abstract

Abstract The formation of chromophores by multi‐component reactions is a synthetically favorable and highly practical chromogenic concept for exploring functional and structural space of solid state and aggregation induced emission (AIE). The underlying reactivity is enabled by alkynoyl intermediates, which are generated in a catalytic fashion and, thereby, open very mild entries to many consecutive one‐pot formations of luminophores. This account summarizes the multi‐component synthetic concept and presents very recent investigations on solid state and aggregation induced emissive systems.
