Abstract
The functionalization of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) via B←N Lewis pair formation offers an opportunity to judiciously fine-tune the structural features and optoelectronic properties, to suit the demands of applications in organic electronic devices, bioimaging, and as sensitizers for singlet oxygen generation. We demonstrate that the N-directed electrophilic borylation of 2,6-di(pyrid-2-yl)anthracene offers access to linearly extended acene derivatives Py-BR (R=Et, Ph, C6 F5 ). In comparison to indeno-fused 9,10-diphenylanthracene, the formal "BN for CC" replacement in Py-BR selectively lowers the LUMO, resulting in a much reduced HOMO-LUMO gap. An even more extended conjugated system with seven six-membered rings in a row (Qu-BEt) is obtained by borylation of 2,6-di(quinolin-8-yl)anthracene. Fluorinated Py-BPf shows particularly advantageous properties, including relatively lower-lying HOMO and LUMO levels, strong yellow-green fluorescence, and effective singlet oxygen sensitization, while resisting self-sensitized conversion to its endoperoxide.

Abstract
Herein, the design, synthesis, optical properties, and mechanofluorochromism characteristics of a series of conjugates having covalently linked triarylborane (TAB) and anil/boranil units (TAB-anil: 1 a-3 a and TAB-boranil: 1-3) are reported. The electronic interactions between TAB and anil/boranil in 1 a-3 a and 1-3 were fine-tuned by changing the boryl moiety's position on the phenyl spacer connecting the BMes2 (Mes=mesityl) and anil/boranil units. A boryl moiety at the meta position (1 a) of the phenyl spacer stabilizes the enolic form (E-OH), whereas a boryl moiety at the para position (2 a and 3 a) stabilizes the keto form (Z-NH) in the solid state. However, in solution 1 a, 2 a, and 3 a exhibit keto-enol tautomerism in both ground and excited states. Compounds 1 a-3 a and 1-3 show red-shifted absorption compared with 4 a and 4, which are devoid of TAB moieties, which indicate effective participation of an empty p orbital on the boron center in 1 a-3 a and 1-3. Compounds 1 and 2 showed fluorescence variations in response to external stimuli such as mechanical grinding. Long phosphorescence lifetimes of 18-46 ms were observed for compounds 1-3. The observed optical properties of 1 a-3 a and 1-3 are rationalized in the context of quantum mechanical calculations.

Abstract
Examination of the photoreactivity of a new class of N,C-chelate organoboron compounds, including a series of unsymmetrically substituted boron molecules, B(naph-pyridyl)(Ar1 )(Ar2 ) and B(naph-thiazolyl)(Ar1 )(Ar2 ), led to the discovery of new and divergent photothermal isomerization phenomena. These include the clean and regioselective photoisomerization by unsymmetrical boron, forming borepin isomers, some of which further isomerize to the corresponding boratanorcaradiene diastereomer pairs as a result of the generation of two chiral centers. Significantly, the boratanorcaradienes involving a 3-thienyl substituent on boron were found to thermally convert to BN-fluoranthene annulated borapentalene via an unprecedented reversible boratacyclopropane-boratacyclopentene rearrangement. Changing the pyridyl donor to a thiazolyl donor on the boron was found to provide the B(naph-thiazolyl)(Mes)2 compounds with a distinct new photoisomerization pathway-instead of borepin, forming new blue fluorescent polycyclic azaborinine species. This work illustrates the richness and complexity of boron photochemistry.

Abstract
As the first discovered organoboron compound with photochromic property, B(ppy)Mes2 (ppy=2-phenylpyridine, Mes=mesityl) displays rich photochemistry that constitutes a solid foundation for wide applications in optoelectronic fields. In this work, we investigated the B(ppy)Mes2 to borirane isomerization mechanisms in the three lowest electronic states (S0 , S1 , and T1 ) based on the complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) and its second-order perturbation (CASPT2) methods combined with time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations. Our results show that the photoisomerization in the S1 state is dominant, which is initiated by the cleavage of the B-Cppy bond. After overcoming a barrier of 0.5 eV, the reaction pathway leads to a conical intersection between the S1 and S0 states (S1 /S0 )x , from which the decay path may go back to the reactant B(ppy)Mes2 via a closed-shell intermediate (Int1-S0 ) or to the product borirane via a biradical intermediate (Int2-S0 ). Although triplet states are probably involved in the photoinduced process, the possibility of the photoisomerization in T1 state is very small owing to the weakly allowed S1 →T1 intersystem crossing and the high energy barrier (0.77 eV). In addition, we found the photoisomerization is thermally reversible, which is consistent with the experimental observations.

Abstract
A series of novel BN tetraphene derivatives have been prepared successfully for the first time via a post-functionalization strategy. The optical and electronic properties of these derivatives could be tuned systematically by the incorporation of different substituents on the main skeleton. The functionalized BN-containing luminogens have been explored for the detection of latent fingerprints (LFPs) on different substrates, including glass, aluminum foil, plastic, and ironware. This strategy provides great versatility in LFP imaging and good potential in elucidating the chemical information within LFPs, making the strategy valuable in forensic investigations.

Abstract
A new class of four-coordinate donor-acceptor fluoroboron-containing thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) compounds bearing a tridentate 2,2'-(pyridine-2,6-diyl)diphenolate (dppy) ligand has been successfully designed and synthesized. Upon varying the donor moieties from carbazole to 10H-spiro[acridine-9,9'-fluorene] to 9,9-dimethyl-9,10-dihydroacridine, these boron derivatives exhibit a wide range of emission colors spanning from blue to yellow with a large spectral shift of 2746 cm-1 , with high PLQYs of up to 96 % in the doped thin film. Notably, vacuum-deposited organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) made with these boron compounds demonstrate high performances with the best current efficiencies of 55.7 cd A-1 , power efficiencies of 58.4 lm W-1 and external quantum efficiencies of 18.0 %. More importantly, long operational stabilities of the green-emitting OLEDs based on 2 with half-lifetimes of up to 12 733 hours at an initial luminance of 100 cd m-2 have been realized. This work represents for the first time the design and synthesis of tridentate dppy-chelating four-coordinate boron TADF compounds for long operational stabilities, suggesting great promises for the development of stable boron-containing TADF emitters.

Abstract
B(npy)Ar2 (npy=2-(naphthalen-1-yl)pyridine) compounds bearing various nonbulky aryl groups undergo a clean and sequential two-step photoisomerization in which two aryl substituents on boron migrate to a carbon atom of the naphthyl moiety. The second isomerization step is the first example of a reversible photoisoermization between a borepin and a borirane. Both steric and electronic factors have been found to have a great impact on this photoreactivity. Furthermore, the borirane isomer reacts with oxygen, forming a rare oxaborepin dimer.
