Photochemistry of 3,6-bis(styryl)pyridazines in solution and in neat liquid crystalline phase—optical switching and imaging techniques

3,6-Bis(styryl)pyridazines 1a-f with 2-6 alkoxy groups show on irradiation in solution a stereoisomerization which leads to a photostationary state of (E,E)- and (E,Z)-isomer. Sensitizing and quenching experiments reveal that the (E,E)→(E,Z) route is a pure triplet process, whereas the (E,Z)→(E,E) route can have a minor singlet by-reaction.Hexyloxy or dodecyloxy chains on the terminal benzene rings convey the (E,E)-isomers of compounds 1a,b,d-f thermotropic liquid crystalline properties. In particular S_A, S_C, and S_F/I phases were studied with regard to their photochemical behavior. Depending on the system, photodegradation of the smectic phase to the isotropic melt (S→I) or photoinduction of the smectic phase (I→S) can be achieved by alteration of the (E,E)/(E,Z) ratio. These processes represent the basis for imaging techniques (writing and erasing of information).

Highly Effective Hybrid Copper(I) Iodide Cluster Emitter with Negative Thermal Quenched Phosphorescence for X-Ray Imaging

The low efficiency triplet emission of hybrid copper(I) iodide clusters is a critical obstacle to their further practical optoelectronic application. Herein, we present an efficient hybrid copper(I) iodide cluster emitter (DBA)₄Cu₄I₄ , where the cooperation of excited state structure reorganization and the metallophilicity interaction enables ultra-bright triplet yellow-orange emission with a photoluminescence quantum yield over 94.9 %, and the phonon-assisted de-trapping process of exciton induces the negative thermal quenching effect at 80–300 K. We also investigate the potential of this emitter for X-ray imaging. The (DBA)₄Cu₄I₄ wafer demonstrates a light yield higher than 10⁴ photons MeV⁻¹ and a high spatial resolution of ≈5.0 lp mm⁻¹, showing great potential in practical X-ray imaging applications. Our new copper(I) iodide cluster emitter can serve as a model for investigating the thermodynamic mechanism of photoluminescence in hybrid copper(I) halide phosphorescence materials.

Synthesis,crystal structures,and redox behavior of bis(2-phenylindenyl) nickel and bis(2-phenylindenyl)zirconium dichloride

Redox reactions of the sandwich jn⁵-(Ph)Ind]₂Ni complex (1) (where (Ph)Ind is the 2-plrenylindenyl anion) in CH₂CI₂ and of the bent-sandwich (⁵-(Plr)Ind]₂ZrCl₂ complex (2) in THF have been studied by low-temperature cyclic voltammetry. Complex ( undergoes quasi-reversible two-step oxidation to cation i+ and dication 12+, which are stable at room temperature within the cyclic voltammetry time scale. Two-electron reduction of complex 1 is irreversible up to -50 °C, and this process is accompanied by destruction of the sandwich structure of the complex. Redaction of complex 2 is described by the conventional scheme for bent-sandwich complexes. According to this scheme, further one-electron reduction of radical anion 2- generates dianion 2^2–, which eliminates two CI^– ions to afford bisindcnyl sandwich complex (⁵-(Ph)lnd]₂Zr (3). This complex is stable at T < -45 °C within the cyclic voltammetry time scale and is capable of undergoing one-electron reduction to the corresponding radical anion 3-. Synthesis and crystal structures of complexes 1 and 2 are reported.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Kidmicheskaya, No. 6, pp. 1529–1536, June, 1996.

Synthesis and Physical Properties of New Ferroelectric Liquid Crystals Consisting of 2(S)-[2 (S)-Methylbutyloxy] Propanol

New ferroelectric liquid crystals containing two chiral centers, 4-(4′-n-alkyloxyphenyl)phenyl 4-{2(S)-[2(S)-methylbutyloxy]propoxy}benzoate ( 4a-4f ) and 4 -(n-alkyloxy)phenyl 4-{4′-[2(S)-(2(S)-methylbutyloxy)propoxy]phenyl}benzoate ( 5a-5f ) were synthesized and their physical properties studied. A phase-transition sequence of C-Sc*-N*-I was observed in most cases. Some homologues of them, 4a-4d , possess monotropic Sc * phase. Not only the Sc* phase-transition temperature of 5a-5f is lower than that of the corresponding 4a-4f , but their Sc * phase-transition temperature range is also wider than the corresponding 4a-4f . The Sc * phase temperature range can be up to 48 °C. The spontaneous polarization of 8-28 nC/cm² and the electric rise time of 240-420 μs were measured in FLCs 4a-5f .

Determination of Lead Using a New Chromogenic Reagent 2-(2-Sulfo-4-acetylphenylazo)-7-(2,4,6-trichlorophenylazo)-1,8-dihydroxynaphthalene-3,6-disulfonic Acid

A novel chromogenic reagent, 2-(2-sulfo-4-acetylphenylazo)-7-(2,4,6-trichlorophenylazo)-1,8-dihydroxynaphthalene-3,6-disulfonic acid 1, was prepared by diazo coupling of 4-acetylaniline-2-sulfonic acid and 2,4,6-trichloroaniline to chromotropic acid through –N=N– groups. Based on this reagent, a simple, sensitive and selective spectrophotometric method was developed for the determination of lead. In 0.20M phosphoric acid medium, lead reacts with 1 to form a 1:2 blue complex with an absorption maximum of 654nm. Beers law is obeyed in the range of 0–0.6mgL^–1 of lead. The apparent molar absorptivity is 1.25×10⁵Lmol^–1cm^–1. The detection limit and quantification limit were found to be 0.63µgL^–1 and 2.1µgL^–1, respectively. The relative standard deviation for eleven replicate measurements was of 2.6%. The interference of foreign ions was also investigated. All the other foreign ions studied did not interfere with lead determination except for Ca(II) and Ba(II). The interference caused by Ca(II) and Ba(II) can be eliminated by prior extraction of lead with potassium iodide-methylisobutylketone (KI-MIBK). The proposed method was applied to the determination of lead in certified samples with satisfactory results.
