• synthesized and investigated for their photochemical properties. The introduction of a fluorine substituent into 3,5-diarylisoxazoles led to an increase of fluorescence intensity and exhibited a redshift in the emission intensity. α-Fluorinated boron ketoiminates (F-BKIs) were also synthesized via a ring

• -opening reaction of 4-fluoroisoxazoles and exhibited highly fluorescent luminescence and aggregation-induced emission (AIE), showing promise as a new fluorophore. Keywords: aggregation-induced emission; boron ketoiminates; fluorescent probe; α-fluorinated boron ketoiminates; 4-fluoroisoxazoles

• fluorescent luminescence characteristics of 4-fluoroisoxazoles, the synthesis of α-fluorinated boron ketoiminates (F-BKIs), and their photochemical properties.
