• -concentration solutions, and their emission efficiency, chromogenic properties, and light sensitivity decrease rapidly [5][6]. In recent years, contrary to conventional fluorescent compounds, aggregation-induced emission enhancement (AIEE)-based compounds that exhibit strong fluorescence in aggregate structures

• -induced emission enhancement (AIEE) properties in aqueous media. Compounds 4a and 4e, bearing electron-withdrawing groups (Br and CF3, respectively) showed 7.0 and 15 times fluorescence enhancement. Time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations were performed to gain better insight into

• photophysically and computationally. The photophysical studies revealed that all the synthesized compounds exhibited fluorescence in organic solvents, while N-methyl-4-((pyridin-2-yl)amino)-substituted maleimide derivatives 4a–e, which are based on an acceptor–donor–acceptor (A–D–A) system, exhibited aggregation

• ) moiety since it can easily undergo aggregation-induced emission enhancement (AIEE). The self-assembly of the HPB derivative resulted in the formation of fluorescent aggregates, which can act as a stabilizer or as a reactor for the development of α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles at room temperature. The catalytic
