Rigidified malononitrile- and ketone-merocyanines in rigid environments
Two merocyanine dyes containing a malononitrile or a ketone functional group as electron-acceptors, and a piperidine group as electron-donor were synthetized and crystallized as pigments.

Determining the Accessibility of Zeolite L Channels Using the Color Change of Thionine Dyes [PDF]
Host-guest materials are created when a guest dye molecule enters the channels within the zeolite host, which can be useful to understand how molecules act in a constrained environment.

Synthesis and characterisation of spiropyran-polymer brushes in micro-capillaries: towards an integrated optical sensor for continuous flow analysis [PDF]
Fused silica-capillaries were successfully functionalised with spiropyran-polymer brushes using spiropyran functionalised norbornyl derivative as monomer. The polymerisation was achieved by surface-initiated ring- opening metathesis polymerisation.
