The novel imidazole-based phenothiazine derivatives 3a-3e differing in the length of the alkyl chain at the imidazole substituents were effectively designed and synthesized. The effect of the alkyl chain on the photophysical properties of novel compounds was systematically investigated and supported by TD/DFT calculations. The photophysical characterization of 3a-3e compounds was performed in a series of solvents. Both absorption and fluorescence spectra exhibited positive solvatochromism. Phenothiazine derivatives 3a-3e have a noteworthy emission from blue to yellow region 450–600 nm, high quantum yields 41–93%, lifetimes in nanosecond scale (4.01–7.55 ns), and Stokes shifts in the range o…
