Electron attachment to trans-azobenzene

open access: yesPhysical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 2009
The temporary anion states of gas-phase trans-azobenzene are characterised by means of electron transmission spectroscopy (ETS) in the 0-6 eV range. The measured energies of vertical electron attachment are compared with the energies of the pi* virtual orbitals of the neutral molecule supplied by HF (at MP2 optimized geometries) and B3LYP calculations.

Energy‐Enhanced Aqueous Organic Flow Batteries Enabled by Integrated Proton‐Coupled Electron Transfer‐Induced Carbon Capture and Utilization

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents an aqueous organic flow battery that integrates energy storage with carbon capture and utilization. By feeding flue gas into an oxygen‐tolerant FFDS posolyte, reversible CO2 capture, utilization, and release is achieved via PCET‐driven pH swings.

Visible‐Light Sensitized Isomerization in the Lipid Bilayer Enables Activation of a Transmembrane Transporter

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A stiff‐stilbene‐based transmembrane anion transporter is isomerized by energy transfer from a ruthenium tris(bipyridyl) photosensitizer in the lipid bilayer. This sensitized isomerization allows activation of chloride transport using visible instead of UV light, without the need to chemically modify the stiff‐stilbene photoswitch.

Photoswitchable basicity through the use of azoheteroarenes

open access: yes, 2016
We report an azoheteroarene photoswitchable base, where proton stabilisation in Z isomer is facilitated by neighbouring imidazole rings. A 1.3 unit difference in pKa is observed between the E and Z isomers, which leads to the ability to reversibly ...

Accelerating Primary Screening of USP8 Inhibitors from Drug Repurposing Databases with Tree‐Based Machine Learning

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
This study introduces a tree‐based machine learning approach to accelerate USP8 inhibitor discovery. The best‐performing model identified 100 high‐confidence repurposable compounds, half already approved or in clinical trials, and uncovered novel scaffolds not previously studied. These findings offer a solid foundation for rapid experimental follow‐up,

An Artificial Molecular Pump Powered by Light

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A minimal rotaxane‐based supramolecular system functions as a light‐powered molecular pump, capturing macrocycles from solution and concentrating them within an intramolecular compartment. Repeated azobenzene photoisomerization modulates the binding and kinetic barriers of threading and shuttling, generating a photon‐driven energy ratchet that sustains

Polymer-azobenzene complexes: from supramolecular concepts to efficient photoresponsive polymers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Linear and nonlinear optical properties of azobenzene-containing polymers give rise to a range of exciting optical phenomena due to the unique response of the azobenzene chromophores to light fields.

Selective switching of multiple azobenzenes

open access: yesChemical Science, 2019
Multi-state photoswitchable compounds are highly attractive for application in data storage or multi-responsive materials. Herein, a trisazobenzene macrocycle is presented, which can be switched selectively into three individual states.
