Three types of 4′-methoxychalcone derivatives Cha-1 ~ Cha-9 with different electron-withdrawing or electron-donating substituents at different positions were synthesized and studied. When the A ring has a hydroxyl group at the 2-position, the strong electron-donating groups at the 4-position of the B ring was more conducive to the near-infrared and aggregation-enhanced emission (AEE) features of the compound than the electron withdrawing groups. The single-crystal analysis confirmed that the good planarity of the 4′-methoxychalcone derivatives favors their fluorescence quantum yields. Moreover, chalcone fluorophores with different fluorescence properties could be obtained by modulating substituent at the 2-position of A ring. In addition, Cha-9 was selected as the AEE luminogen to locate the lysosomes in HeLa cells. These results provided fundamental knowledge for the design and application of 4′-methoxychalcone derivatives of aggregation-induced emission (AIE) compounds.

In this paper, a one-pot facile route for the BiCl3/RuCl3-mediated synthesis of functionalized flavones is described, including: (i) intermolecularortho-acylation of substituted phenols with cinnamoyl chlorides, and (ii) intramolecular cyclodehydrogenation of the resultingo-hydroxychalcones. The reaction conditions are discussed herein.

A chalcone, which is composed of two aromatic rings bridged by an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl group, exhibits a variety of biological activities. With an objective to develop a novel chalcone-based functional dye, we have synthesized a chalcone diol CLN1, bearing two OH groups at the 2-positions on both phenyl rings, as well as reference compounds CLN2-6, and found that it serves as color indicators for pH and fluoride ions. CLN1showed a vivid color change from colorless to yellow (halochromism) in water at pH ≥ 10. Furthermore, it presented a selective color change from colorless to red upon the addition of TBAF in an organic solvent such as CH3CN. CLN1provided a strong red-shifted absorption band in the visible region under alkaline conditions in water and upon the addition of TBAF in CH3CN. The absorption spectral study together with TD-DFT calculations and X-ray crystallographic analysis revealed that the characteristic π-resonant structures of CLN1caused by the ionization or OH-F?interactions and the planar conformation due to its intramolecular hydrogen bonding may provide a strong charge transfer (CT) absorption in the visible region.
