基于苯并噻唑衍生物的颜色可调和ESIPT诱导的固体荧光团：聚集诱导发射，强烈的溶致变色效应和白光发射。

Organic solid materials with color-tunable emissions have been extensively applied in various fields. However, a rational design and facile synthesis of an ideal fluorophore are still challenging due to the undesirable aggregation-caused quenching effect in concentrated solution and solid form. Herein, we have developed a series of 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl)benzothiazole (\u003cb\u003eHBT\u003c/b\u003e)-derived color-tunable solid emitters by switching functional groups at the ortho-position of a hydroxyl group via formylation and an aldol condensation reaction. By tuning the electron-withdrawing ability and the π-conjugated framework introduced by the functional groups, fluorophores emit light covering the full-color range from blue to near-infrared regions with high quantum yields in their solid form and show a significant solvatochromic effect in polar solvents. The aggregation-induced emission (AIE) or aggregation-induced emission enhancement (AIEE) and excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) involving fluorescence mechanism, along with their inter/intramolecular interactions in crystals, are elucidated to depict the key factors for tunable emissions and high emitting efficiency. Furthermore, high-quality white-light-emitting materials are obtained in various solvents and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) films with combined fluorophores. Overall, these studies report a promising strategy for the construction of organic solid materials with color-tunable emission and shed light on methods for obtaining desirable emission efficiency.
