Abstract

Combination of an aggregation-induced emission (AIE) moiety and a dimesitylboron group yields a new three-coordinate boron compound exhibiting a synergistic effect: the resultant TPEDMesB shows AIE feature with solid-state emission efficiency up to unity and good electron-transport property, and thus remarkable electroluminescence (EL) performances.
