In this paper, the synthesis and characterization of a triarylpyrazoline modified four-H-bonded molecular duplex are described. Its molecular structure has been confirmed by ^1H NMR and ESI-MS. The duplex emits strong pure blue light peaking at 448 and 452 nm under UV photoexcitation in solution and solid state, respectively, and its relative photoluminescence quantum efficiency in solution is determined as 0.778 using quinine sulfate as reference. In concentration of 〉40 mmol/L, the duplex can gelate DMSO, and the organogel formed shows good pure blue photoluminescence too. This novel duplex, for its well-defined structure and efficient photoluminescence property, is a prospective candidate for pure blue electroluminescent emitter.
