Photophysical Properties of Anthracene Derivatives

In this tutorial review, we intend to provide the reader with a comprehensive introduction to the photophysical properties of organic compounds with a specific focus on anthracene and its derivatives. Anthracene-based building blocks have attracted the attention of chemists due to their intrinsic luminescent properties. A deep understanding of their interaction with light, including the mechanisms of emission (luminescence, i.e., fluorescence or phosphorescence) and quenching, is crucial to design and generate compounds with precise properties for further applications. Thus, the photophysical properties of different types of aggregates, both in the ground state (J- and H-type) and in the exited state (e.g., excimer, exciplex) will be discussed, finishing with a few examples of dyads and triads.
