Controlled photocyclization, photodimerization, and photoisomerization of stilbazole salts within Nafion membranes

[reaction: see text] Water- and methanol-swollen Nafion membranes were used as microreactors to successfully control the photochemical reaction pathway of stilbazole derivatives. Of particular interest is the production of azaphenanthrene (the product not obtainable in homogeneous solution) in high yield under high bulk concentration.     

A luminescent chemosensor with specific response for Mg2+

A novel chemosensor, a cyclometalated platinum(II) bipyridyl acetylide complex containing a monoazacrown moiety in the acetylide ligand, which can signal Mg(2+) specifically and display large changes both in color and in luminescence intensity upon complexation with Mg(2+), is described.     

The self-assembly mechanism of the Lindqvist anion [W(6)O(19)](2-) in aqueous solution: a density functional theory study

The formation mechanism is always a fundamental and confused issue for polyoxometalate chemistry. Two formation mechanisms (M1 and M2) of the Lindqvist anion [W(6)O(19)](2-) have been adopted to investigate it's self-assembly reaction pathways at a density functional theory (DFT) level. The potential energy surfaces reveal that both the mechanisms are thermodynamically favorable and overall barrierless at room temperature, but M2 is slightly dominant to M1. The formation of the pentanuclear species [W(5)O(16)](2-) and [W(5)O(15)(OH)](-) are recognized as the rate-determining steps in the whole assembly polymerization processes. These two steps involve the highest energy barriers with 30.48 kcal mol(-1) and 28.90 kcal mol(-1), respectively, for M1 and M2. [W(4)O(13)](2-) and [W(4)O(12)(OH)](-) are proved to be the most stable building blocks. In addition, DFT results reveal that the formation of [W(3)O(10)](2-) experiences a lower barrier along the chain channel.     

Photocatalytic hydrogen production from hantzsch 1,4-dihydropyridines by platinum(II) terpyridyl complexes in homogeneous solution

1,4-Dihydropyridines have been photocatalytically oxidized to pyridines by platinum(II) terpyridyl complexes with the generation of hydrogen in homogeneous solution. The hydrogen production proceeds in quantitative yield and with great catalytic turnover.     

Long-lived emission from platinum(II) terpyridyl acetylide complexes

Photoluminescence with high quantum yield and long lifetime from a triplet metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) excited state in fluid solution at room temperature has been observed for a series of platinum(II) 4'-p-tolyl-terpyridyl acetylide complexes.

Synthesis and Luminescent Properties of an Acetylide-Bridged Dinuclear Platinum(II) Terpyridyl Complex

Introduction Luminescent coordinatively unsaturated platinum(II) complexes are appealing from photochemical and pho-tophysical perspective.1,2 In particular, platinum(II) ter-pyridyl complexes have attracted considerable attention due to their rich spectroscopic2a-d and biological proper-ties.2a,e-g However, the development of the photochem-istry of these complexes is limited by their short-lived MLCT excited state in solution at room temperature. The lack of emission originates from low-l…

The first intramolecular charge transfer transition based on 2-ureido-4[1H]-pyrimidinone binding module was reported.     

Versatile photosensitization system for 1O2-mediated oxidation of alkenes based on nafion-supported platinum(II) terpyridyl acetylide complex

[structure: see text] Platinum(II) terpyridyl acetylide complex (1) was incorporated into Nafion membranes as a photosensitizer, and the Nafion was immersed in an aqueous or organic solution of 7-dehydrocholesterol, alpha-pinene, or cyclopentadiene. This photosensitizer system can generate singlet oxygen ((1)O(2)) in high quantum yield to oxidize the alkenes in the solution outside the Nafion and can be easily removed from the reaction vessel at the end of the photooxidation.     

Monofunctionalized pillar[5]arene-based stable [1]pseudorotaxane

A new monofunctionalized pillar[5]arene bearing imidazolium moiety that formed stable [1]pseudorotaxane even at high concentration (100 mmol/L) was reported. [1]Rotaxane was obtained effi ciently through thiol-ene reaction from [1]pseudorotaxane which further confi rmed the formation of [1]pseudorotaxane.
