Abstract
Doping the boron (B) element endowed organic π-conjugated polymers (OCPs) with intriguing optoelectronic properties. Herein, we introduce a new series of thienylborane-pyridine (BN) Lewis pairs via the facile reactions between thienylborane and various pyridine derivatives. Particularly, we developed a "one-pot" synthetic protocol to access BN2 with an unstable 4-bromopyridine moiety. Polycondensations between the BN Lewis pairs and distannylated thiophene afforded a new series of BN-cross-linked polythiophenes (BN-PTs). Experiments revealed that BN-PTs exhibited highly uniform chemical structures, particularly the uniform chemical environment of B-centers. BN-PTs showed good stability in the solid state. PBN2 even maintained the uniform B-center under high temperature or moisture conditions. The studies further suggested that the presence of topological BN structures endowed the polymers with strong intramolecular charge separation character. As a proof of concept, a representative BN-PT was tested as the catalyst for photocatalytic hydrogen evolution.

Abstract
There are much fewer n-type conjugated polymers than p-type counterparts because of the lack of strong electron-accepting building blocks. We report a novel strong electron-accepting unit based on a dicyanomethylene unit. The resulting polymers exhibit LUMO energy levels of as low as -4.04 eV and narrow optical gaps with an onset absorption wavelength of 1050 nm. Moreover, the polymers exhibit near-infrared light absorption with good photostability because of their low-lying LUMO/HOMO energy levels.

Abstract
A starlike heterocyclic molecule containing an electron‐deficient nonaaza‐core structure and three peripheral isoquinolines locked by three tetracoordinate borons, namely isoquinoline‐nona‐starazine (QNSA), is synthesized by using readily available reactants through a rather straightforward approach. This new heteroatom‐rich QNSA possesses a quasi‐planar π‐backbone structure, and bears phenyl substituents on borons which protrude on both sides of the π‐backbones endowing it with good solubility in common organic solvents. Contrasting to its starphene analogue, QNSA shows intense fluorescence with a quantum yield (PLQY) of up to 62 % in dilute solution.

Abstract
In this work, a luminescent metal–organic framework (Eu-MOF {[Eu6L6(μ3-OH)8(H2O)3]8·H2O}n) was constructed by a solvothermal method with a linear organic ligand L (10-[(2-amino-4-carboxyl-phenyl)ethynyl]anthracene-9-carboxylic acid) based on anthracene and alkyne groups and using Eu3+ as the metal center. The MOF exhibits a stable UiO-66 crystal structure, and a six-core cluster twelve-linked secondary structural unit was successfully synthesized using 2-fluorobenzoic acid as a modulator, forming a classical fcu topology. Moreover, it exhibits good chemical stability. Interestingly, Eu-MOF exhibited high selectivity and sensitive fluorescence burst properties towards Fe3+ ions and 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (TNP) in DMF solution. For Fe3+, the KSV value is 5.06 × 105 M−1 and the LOD value is 5.1 × 10−7 M. For TNP, the KSV value is 1.92 × 104 M−1 and the LOD value is 1.93 × 10−6 M. In addition, Eu-MOF showed good anti-interference ability and fast response. This work provides an excellent fluorescent sensor for the detection of Fe3+ and 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (TNP) residues in contaminants. In this work, Eu-MOF has been synthesized and has excellent luminescence recognition ability for Fe3+ and TNP with good selectivity and high sensitivity via luminescence quenching.![]()

Abstract
Preparation of non-conjugated polymers with long-wavelength emission and high quantum yield (QY) is still a huge challenge. Herein, we report the first example of linear non-conjugated polyester exhibiting yellow-green clusteroluminescence (CL) and a high QY of 38 %. We discovered that the polyester P3 with balanced flexibility and rigidity showed the longest CL wavelength and highest QY. Systematically photophysical characterization unravel the key role of ester cluster in the CL and the cluster formation via the aggregate of ester units was visualized. Moreover, P3 was demonstrated to be a highly selective, quick-responsive (ca. 1.2 min) and sensitive detector (detection limit is 0.78 μM) for irons owing to the fast disassociation of clusters by irons. This work not only gains further mechanistic insight into CL but also provides a new strategy to design high-efficiency and long-wavelength CL, meanwhile, enlightens the glorious application prospect of luminescent polyester.
