The Nonadiabatic Nature of the Substituent Effects in Azobenzene
Unified nonadiabatic switching: thermal Z→E isomerization of para‐substituted azobenzenes proceeds through a single nonadiabatic rotational pathway. The iconic bell‐shaped Hammett plot is a σp artifact, not a reflection of a mechanistic change, exposing the limits of single‐reference density functional theory (DFT) and establishing activation entropy ...

Redox-dependent conformational switching of diphenylacetylenes [PDF]
Herein we describe the design and synthesis of a redox-dependent single-molecule switch. Appending a ferrocene unit to a diphenylacetylene scaffold gives a redox-sensitive handle, which undergoes reversible one-electron oxidation, as demonstrated by ...

It is a challenge to improve the selectivity of high‐denticity ligands for Mg2+ over Ca2+. We show that in aryl‐alkynyl derivatives of APTRA, electron‐withdrawing substituents lower the binding affinity for Ca2+ more than Mg2+, making the ligand more selective for Mg2+.

Micellar effects on aromatic esters hydrolysis [PDF]
The alkaline hydrolysis of two aromatic esters, 2-naphthyl acetate (2NA) and phenyl acetate (PhA) has been tackled in this work. The reaction has been followed in water and in the presence of cationic surfactants with different chain lengths ...

The combination of Suzuki and Buchwald–Hartwig coupling in (pseudo‐)four‐component reactions paves an efficient one‐pot route to twisted, redox‐active triarylamine (TAA) emitters. Biaryl substitution patterns and para‐substituents serve as key levers for tuning redox potentials, as well as absorption and emission energies, complemented and, by time ...

From 2,3-Diazabicyclo[2.2.2]oct-2-ene to Fluorazophore-L, a membrane-bound fluorescent probe for antioxidants [PDF]
The aim of this work was to synthesize and to establish a new fluorescent membrane probe for antioxidants by exploiting the exceptional properties of the long-lived fluorophore 2,3-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]oct-2-ene (DBO) alias Fluorazophore-P.

Twelve donor–aniline–thiophene–acceptor chromophores with varying acceptor moieties were synthesized via consecutive lithiation–borylation‐Suzuki‐coupling sequence as potential hybridized localized and charge transfer (HLCT) dyes. Cyclic voltammetry measurements reveal one or two reversible oxidation processes with thermodynamic stability of radical ...

T‐Shaped 8‐Aryl(ethynyl)‐Substituted Psoralens With Tunable Charge‐Transfer Absorption
Starting from 8‐methoxypsoralen, new 8‐arylated and 8‐alkynylated psoralen derivatives are accessible by cross‐coupling. These T‐shaped π‐expanded chromophores are luminescent and photophysics reveal a highly polar excited state with tunable charge‐transfer character.
