From tetraphenylethene to tetranaphthylethene: structural evolution in AIE luminogen continues

Abstract
Replacement of phenyl ring(s) in tetraphenylethene by naphthalene ring(s) generates a series of new luminogens with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) characteristics, demonstrating that bulky naphthalene rings can serve as a rotor to construct AIE luminogens.
