Unveiling fluorescence sensing ability of two newly synthesized near-infrared emitting dicyanoisophorone derivatives.
In this manuscript, two newly designed near-infrared (NIR) emitting derivatives were synthesized by reacting dicyanoisophorone with 2-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzaldehyde (IC25) and 2,4,5-trimethoxybenzaldehyde (IC27) through Knoevenagel condensation reactions. The compounds were structurally characterized using various analyti...
