Abstract
In past decades, organic crystals have presented considerable potential in the field of optoelectronics due to their rich tunable physical and chemical properties and excellent optoelectronic characteristics. White-light emission, as a special application, has received widespread attention and has been applied in various fields, generating significant interest in the scientific community. By preparing white light-emitting organic crystals, a series of applications for future white-light sources can be realized. This article reviews the research progress on the molecular design and synthesis, preparation, and application of white light-emitting organic crystals in recent years. We hope that this review will help to understand and facilitate the development of white light-emitting organic crystals.

Abstract
Through-space donor–alkyl bridge–acceptor (D–σ–A) luminogens are developed as new organic single-molecule white light emitters (OSMWLEs) involving multiple higher lying singlet (Sn) and triplet (Tm) states (hot-excitons). Experimental and theoretical results confirm the origin of white light emission due to the co-existence of prompt fluorescence from locally excited states, thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF), and fast/slow dual phosphorescence color mixing simultaneously. Notably, the fast phosphorescence was observed due to trace amounts of isomeric impurities from commercial carbazole, while H-/J-aggregation resulted in slow phosphorescence. Crystal structure-packing-property analysis revealed that the alkyl chain length induced supramolecular self-assembly greatly influenced the solid-state optical properties. Remarkably, the 1D-microrod crystals of OSMWLEs demonstrated the first examples of triplet harvesting waveguides by self-guiding the generated phosphorescence through light propagation along their longitudinal axis. This work thus highlights an uncommon design strategy to achieve multi-functional OSMWLEs with in-depth mechanistic insights and optical waveguiding applications making them a potentially new class of white emissive materials. Through-space donor–alkyl bridge–acceptor multifunctional organic single molecules that simultaneously displayed white light emission, thermally activated delayed fluorescence, room temperature dual phosphorescence and optical wave-guiding properties.![]()

ADVANCED MATERIALS (DEERFIELD BEACH, FLA.) 2021; 33:e2102719.

Abstract
White-light-emissive organic micro/nanostructures hold exotic potential applications in full-color displays, on-chip wavelength-division multiplexing, and backlights of portable display devices, but are rarely realized in organic core/shell heterostructures. Herein, through regulating the noncovalent interactions between organic semiconductor molecules, a hierarchical self-assembly approach of horizontal epitaxial-growth is demonstrated for the fine synthesis of organic core/mono-shell microwires with multicolor emission (red-green, red-blue, and green-blue) and especially organic core/double-shell microwires with radial red-green-blue (RGB) emission, whose components are dibenzo[g,p]chrysene (DgpC)-based charge-transfer (CT) complexes. In fact, the desired lattice mismatching (≈2%) and the excellent structure compatibility of these CT complexes facilitate the epitaxial-growth process for the facile synthesis of organic core/shell microwires. With the RGB-emissive substructures, these core/double-shell organic microwires are microscale white-light sources (CIE [0.34, 0.36]). Besides, the white-emissive core/double-shell microwires demonstrate the fascinating full-spectrum light transportation from 400 to 700 nm. This work indeed opens up a novel avenue for the accurate construction of organic core/shell heterostructures, which provides an attractive platform for the organic integrated optoelectronics.

Abstract
A regioselective synthesis of polysubstituted dihydropyrazoles and pyrazoles through an iodine-catalyzed oxidative cyclization strategy of aldehyde hydrazones with electron-deficient olefins is described. The protocol adopts very mild reaction conditions and provides desirable yields. The reaction is supposed to proceed via a cascade C-H functionalization, C-N bond formation, and oxidation sequential processes. The overall simplicity and regioselectivity of the catalytic system make this approach a valuable and step-economical tool to construct a C-C bond for the synthesis of Mefenpyr-Diethyl.

Abstract
Novel photonic microresonators with enhanced nonlinear optical (NLO) intensity are fabricated from polymer particles. As an additional advantage, they offer band gap tunability from the visible to near-infrared regions. A special protocol including (i) copolymerization of 4-(1-pyrenyl)-styrene, styrene, and 1,4-divinylbenzene, (ii) extraction of a dispersible and partly dissolvable, lightly cross-linked polymer network (PN), and (iii) treatment of the blue-emitting PN with electron acceptor (A) molecules such as 1,2,4,5-tetracyanobenzene (TCNB) and 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) furnishes orange- and red-emitting D-A charge-transfer (CT) complexes with the pendant pyrene units. These complexes, here named PN-TCNB and PN-TCNQ, respectively, precipitate as microparticles upon the addition of water and subsequent ultrasonication. Upon electronic excitation, these spherical microparticles act as whispering-gallery-mode resonators by displaying optical resonances in the photoluminescence (PL) spectra because of light confinement. Further, the trapped incident light increases the light-matter interaction and thereby enhances the PL intensity, including the two-photon luminescence. The described protocol for polymer-based CT microresonators with tunable NLO emissions holds promise for a myriad of photonic applications.

Abstract
Well-controlled synthesis of ethynyl-functionalized poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) is crucial for preparation of block copolymers containing the P3HT segment by means of click coupling reaction. A well-known chain end modification method, in which Kumada-Tamao catalyst-transfer polymerization is quenched with ethynylmagnesium chloride, under various conditions is re-examined, but in all cases not only P3HT with an ethynyl group at one end but also P3HT di-ethynylated at both ends is obtained. Accordingly, Sonogashira coupling reaction of P3HT having H/Br ends with trimethylsilylacetylene is tried, followed by removal of the trimethylsilyl group, and it is found that this protocol affords exclusively P3HT with an ethynyl group at one end. This post end-modification method is applied to the synthesis of an amphiphilic diblock copolymer of P3HT and poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) (PEtOx) by means of click reaction between ethynylated P3HT and PEtOx with an azide group at one end, and the product is confirmed to be free from contamination with triblock copolymer. Micellization of this block copolymer is confirmed in tetrahydrofuran (THF)/water and THF/methanol mixtures.

Abstract
A novel red emitting copolymer (P1) was prepared (Mn ∼ 10.7 kDa) by copolymerizing tridentate ligand, namely 2,6-bis(pyrazolyl)pyridine (BPP) with 4,7-bis(2-ethynyl-5-thienyl)-2,1,3-benzothiadiazole. This copolymer readily formed an orange yellow emitting metal containing conjugated polymer (P1.Tb) with Tb(acac)3. Further, a judicial blend of P1.Tb with polystyrene and its subsequent self-assembly in THF/water produced microspheres with smooth surface area. Interestingly, continuous wave laser excitation of a single microsphere displayed whispering-gallery-mode (WGM) resonance modes over a broad wavelength range covering visible (Vis) and near-infrared (NIR) regions (0.550-0.875 μm). The estimated Q factor was up to 700, which is very high for a metal containing conjugated polymer (MCCP)-based optical gain medium.
