Abstract

With the aim of substantial improvement of solvatochromic and electrochromic fluorescence probes by coupling their response with an excitedstate reaction, a series of 3-hydroxychromone derivatives have been synthesized. They demonstrate two well-separated emission bands that originate from normal and phototautomer forms due to excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) reaction. In the studies of solvent polarity effect, electrochromism (internal Stark effect) and red edge effect a strong amplification of probe response is achieved by recording of relative intensity ratios of these fluorescence bands instead of their spectral shifts. This result is an illustration of a new principle in design of fluorescence probes, which may allow the achievement of almost perfect on-off switching behavior.
