Halogen bonding tetraphenylethene anion receptors: anion-induced emissive aggregates and photoswitchable recognition

A series of tetraphenylethene (TPE) derivatives functionalized with highly potent electron-deficient perfluoroaryl iodo-triazole halogen bond (XB) donors for anion recognition are reported. 1H NMR titration experiments, fluorescence spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering measurements, TEM imaging an...
