含偶氮苯的咔唑类双功能光折变聚合物的合成及表征

通过后重氮偶合方法制备了一系列不同生色团含量的咔唑类双功能光折变聚合物，并用IR、^1H-NMR、UV-vis、DSC以及GPC等对聚合物进行了分析和表征。IR和UV-vis谱图显示偶氮苯基团已接到咔唑环上。UV-vis结果表明：反应时间对该反应的影响非常大，当反应时间从6h增加到60h时，聚合物中生色团的含量从13.5%升高到66.7%。GPC结果显示后重氮偶合法比常规方法得到的该类聚合物的分子量明显提高。DSC结果显示聚合物的玻璃化转变温度随偶氮苯含量的增加而升高。     

Rectifying effect of heterojunction fabricated in freestanding thin film of polyaniline containing azobenzene side-chain

An innovative heterojunction is fabricated between two sides of a freestanding thin film of HCl-doped polyaniline (PANI) derivative containing azobenzene side-chain, which is synthesized through an N-alkyl-substituted reaction. Of the film, the side with being irradiated by UV light during preparation is represented as `A side'; the other side without being irradiated is represented as `N side'. The electrical properties of the heterojunction are measured and the rectifying effect is observed in the {current--voltage} characteristic curves with the values of rectifying ratio (γ) being 20 at ±0.06 V at T= 77K and 4 at ±0.02V at T=300 K separately.     

Stabilization of High Oxidation State Upconversion Nanoparticles by N‐Heterocyclic Carbenes

The stabilization of high oxidation state nanoparticles by N‐heterocyclic carbenes is reported. Such nanoparticles represent an important subset in the field of nanoparticles, with different and more challenging requirements for suitable ligands compared to elemental metal nanoparticles. N‐Heterocyclic carbene coated NaYF₄:Yb,Tm upconversion nanoparticles were synthesized by a ligand‐exchange reaction from a well‐defined precursor. This new photoactive material was characterized in detail and employed in the activation of photoresponsive molecules by low‐intensity near‐infrared light (λ =980 nm).     

Highly Regioselective Ring Opening of Epoxides with Thiols Catalyzed by SbCl3 Under Solvent-Free Conditions

The ring-opening reaction of epoxides with thiols by SbCl ₃ supported on Kieselguhr under solvent-free conditions, afforded high yields of β-hydroxy sulfides. Nucleophilic attack of the thiols occurs regioselectively at the less hindered side of the epoxides.     

Photochromic liquid-crystalline copolymers containing crown ether groups

An approach was developed for the synthesis of new multifunctional photosensitive liquid-crystalline copolymers of the acryl series containing azobenzene, ionophoric, and mesogenic groups in the same macromolecule. The phase behavior of the copolymers was studied. Most of these copolymers were demonstrated to form nematic mesophases. An increase in the concentration of crown-containing groups to 26 mol.% leads to amorphization of the copolymers. The influence of complexation of the crown ether groups of the copolymers with potassium perchlorate on the mesomorphic properties of the systems was investigated. A comparative study of the photooptical properties of the copolymers in solution and thin films was performed. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

光敏型季铵盐类阳离子表面活性剂的合成及表面活性和泡沫性质

本文报道了一种光敏型的阳离子表面活性剂（AZO），其分子结构中含有偶氮苯基团，并研究了光照对表面活性和泡沫性能的影响。经紫外光照射后，表面活性剂的饱和吸附量（Г_max）减小，临界胶束浓度（cmc）、最低表面张力（γ_cmc）和分子极限占有面积（A_min）增大；气泡数目增多，直径变小，发泡能力和泡沫稳定性降低。实验结果证实，该表面活性剂的表面活性和泡沫稳定性可以用光照进行调控。     

含偶氮苯基团的三枝状凝胶因子的合成和凝胶性质研究

设计合成了一种中心为三乙基氨基,酰胺基作为氢键连接基团,柔性的烷基链连接偶氮苯基团的含多种分子间弱相互作用的三枝状有机凝胶因子1.由于偶氮苯基团处于分子的外缘,在THF溶液中,凝胶因子1表现出良好的光致变色行为.凝胶性能测试中,分子间存在氢键作用、π-π相互作用等使得该化合物在醇类、有机酸类和乙腈等极性溶剂中极易形成稳定的有机凝胶.在少数的非极性溶剂,如正己烷和环己烷中也可以形成稳定凝胶,并且随着溶剂极性的不同,凝胶形貌呈现出规则的纤维状或带状结构.

通过６－氯－５，１２－萘并萘醌与４－羟基偶氮苯及其衍生物的反应合成了３种含苯氧基萘并萘醌和偶氮苯光致变色基的双变色基化合物，６－［４－（苯偶氮基）苯氧基］－５，１２－萘并萘醌（５），６－［４－（ｐ－乙氧基苯偶氮基）苯氧基］－５，１２－萘并萘醌（６）和６－［４－（ｐ－硝基苯偶氮基）苯氧基］－５，１２－萘并萘醌（７）．这些化合物的苯氧基萘并萘醌变色基的ＵＶ诱导光致变色性较弱；基于氨与苯氧基萘并萘醌ａｎａ显色体的不可逆反应，化合物５和６ＤＭＳＯ溶液在３６５ｎｍ紫外光辐照光稳态（ＰＳＳ）下的ａｎａ醌式摩尔分数估计分别为２２％和１７％．这些结果说明，苯偶氮基对苯氧基萘并萘醌变色基的光致变色性质有着极强的影响．另一方面，与４－羟基偶氮苯母体不同，这些双变色基化合物在ＤＭＳＯ中偶氮苯变色基的顺式异构体是相对稳定的     

Study of intermediates formed in the oxidation of thiols

The oxidation of aminoethanethiol (1) was investigated in acid solutions on a glass carbon anode. It was shown that at relatively low anode potentials thiyl radicals RS^· are released into the solution, but this does not lead to binding of the oxygen in the solution. Raising the anode potential leads to binding of oxygen, which is probably due to the formation of the intermediate RS⁺. The oxidation of 1 was studied in Ce(SO₄)₂+H₂SO₄ solution. It was shown that under certain conditions the intermediate is RS⁺, which subsequently converts to a product that could not be identified as any previously described product of the oxidation of thiols. Proposals are made regarding its structure and conversion pathways.B. P. Konstantinov Institute of Nuclear Physics, Russian Academy of Sciences, 188350 Leningrad.
