Contrary to the belief of the chemistry community, intense charge transfer is observed between meta-oriented donor–acceptor moieties in ultrasmall single-benzenic fluorophores. Red emission in any solvent has so far been reported with molecular fluorophores having the lowest molecular weight (MW) of 252.5 Da; however, we have achieved the same with a meta-fluorophore having an MW of only 203.1 Da. Red emission in a nonpolar solvent has so far been reported with a fluorophore having a minimum MW of 464.5 Da, but we have achieved the same with a meta-fluorophore having an MW of only 255.3 Da. Intense Stokes (260 nm) and solvatochromic (160 nm) shifts, high magnitudes of fluorescence quantum yield (>0.4), and excited-state lifetime (>16 ns) have been obtained in these single-benzenic meta-fluorophores, and these values are comparatively much higher in comparison to corresponding o-/p-fluorophores. These extraordinary meta-fluorophores have been employed to measure subcellular nanopolarity in live stem cells toward cost-effective white fluorescent ink and white light-emitting diodes (LEDs) in solid state.
