Abstract: | Indolizino[5,6‐b]quinoxaline derivatives ( 1 a and 1 b ) with a push–pull structure were prepared to show intramolecular charge‐transfer properties. Compounds 1 a and 1 b are strongly fluorescent in aprotic solvents while symmetrical derivatives ( 2 a and 2 b ) were non‐fluorescent. The π‐expanded α–α linked dimer ( 10 ) of indolizino[5,6‐b]quinoxaline 1 b was serendipitously obtained to show NIR absorption over 800 nm and the fluorescence edge reached to 1400 nm. |
