In this work, a strategy for designing functional fluorescent Schiff bases based on intramolecular hydrogen bonding is presented. Three pairs of Schiff base isomers with different C=N orientations were designed and synthesized. The Schiff bases with intramolecular hydrogen bonds exhibited aggregation-induced emission characteristics and could be used for light-emitting devices. On the other hand, the Schiff bases without intramolecular hydrogen bonds showed fluorescence inactivity but had the ability to simultaneously detect and discriminate two different metal ions.
Precise control of the fluorescence properties of Schiff bases, including luminescence activity and sensing ability, for applications in a particular field remains challenging. In this work, we present a strategy for the design of functional fluorescent Schiff bases based on intramolecular hydrogen bonding in molecules. Three pairs of Schiff base isomers, distinguished by the orientation of C=N, are rationally designed and synthesized by regulating the position of aggregation-induced emission luminogens (AIEgens) and phenol groups on C=N. Schiff bases with AIEgens on the N side and the phenol group on the C side possess intramolecular hydrogen bonds, exhibiting AIE characteristics, and thus can be applied to the fabrication of light-emitting devices. When the two groups are interchanged, the resulting Schiff bases without intramolecular hydrogen bonds are characterized by fluorescence inactivity in the aggregate and solid state but show intelligent functions that can simultaneously detect and discriminate two different metal ions through distinctly different luminescence light-up. The C=N orientationinverted congeners with dramatically different fluorescence properties are structurally similar. This work provides insights for in-depth understanding of the structure-property relationships of Schiff bases.
