The solvatochromism and acidochromism of organic dyes have been of research interest due to their ability to shift their emission wavelength according to the solvent’s polarity. In this research, the organic dye, napthalo-fused imidazole (IZo) was synthesized using Naphthalene-1,4,5,8-tetracarboxyli...
