A Λ-shaped cyanostilbene derivative: multi-stimuli responsive fluorescence sensors, rewritable information storage and colour converter for w-LEDs

Abstract

A new Λ-shaped α-cyanostilbene derivative (<bold>TSA</bold>) containing an active amino group with fluorescence emission both in solution and the solid state was designed, synthesized and characterized. <bold>TSA</bold> can be used as a fluorescent sensor, a rewritable information storage material and in w-LEDs.
