  1. aExcited at the absorption maximum wavelength in solution state at room temperature. Solution, 1 × 10−5 M in 2-methylpentane/toluene (99/1, v/v); crystal, recrystallized from hexane; n.d., not determined due to negligible phosphorescence. Phosphorescence spectra were recorded with pulsed excitation. Quantum yields of fluorescence and phosphorescence were estimated by absolute quantum yields and deconvoluted photoluminescence spectra with multi-component Gaussian functions.
