要旨

Enhanced fluorescence quantum yields are enabled by simple reactions at the heterocyclic nitrogen in naphthyl-pyridine chromophores in which the electronic properties can be tuned through protonation, oxidation, and alkylation at the nitrogen center. Fluorescence quantum yield is increased by reacting the pyridine lone pair with either a proton or an alkyl group. Restricted intramolecular rotation (RIR) was observed upon alkylation, as evidenced by the presence of atropisomers. These simple structural changes allow application-driven tuning of electronic properties.

Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry (OBC) publishes original and high impact research and reviews in organic chemistry. We welcome research that shows new or significantly improved protocols or methodologies in total synthesis, synthetic methodology or physical and theoretical organic chemistry as well as research that shows a significant advance in the organic chemistry or molecular design aspects of chemical biology, catalysis, supramolecular and macromolecular chemistry, theoretical chemistry, mechanism-oriented physical organic chemistry, medicinal chemistry or natural products. Articles published in the journal should report new work which makes a highly-significant impact in the field. Routine and incremental work is generally not suitable for publication in the journal. More details about key areas of our scope are below. In all cases authors should include in their article clear rationale for why their research has been carried out.
