Amphipolar, Amphiphilic 2,4-diarylpyrano[2,3-<i>b</i>]indoles as Turn-ON Luminophores in Acidic and Basic Media

A versatile amphiphilic pyrano[2,3-<i>b</i>]indole for halochromic turn-ON luminescence in acidic or basic media is accessed by an insertion-coupling-cycloisomerization and adjusting solubilizing and phenolic functionalities. While almost non-emissive in neutral solutions, treatment with...
