While investigating the unique optical properties of aminobenzopyranoxanthenes (ABPXs), organic fluorescent dyes with the fusion of two rhodamines, we have found that the spirolactone form of ABPXs exhibited solvatochromic fluorescence in organic solvents. Detailed spectrophotometric and theoretical analyses showed that the solvatochromic fluorescence of ABPXs originated from the photo-excited charge separation in solvents of different dipolarities. Further studies revealed that fluorescent nanoaggregates were also formed in highly concentrated solution. The intriguing dual fluorescence properties of ABPXs were tunable in response to the water content, and served as a new detection principle for naked-eye visualisation (above 0.5 wt%) and quantification (0.010–0.125 wt%) of water in tetrahydrofuran.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
