All the UV data was recorded in DCM solution. Not able to be determined due to very poor emission. Fluorescence quantum yield which was measured in DCM solution using an integrating sphere. Fluorescence quantum yield which was measured in acetonitrile solution using Coumarin 307 as a reference [26, 27]. Stokes shift was calculated based on abs  −   em.
