Recycling by-products in new small molecular electrochromic materials with ultra bistability

The potential of three arylamine based molecules for electrochromic applications is investigated herein. The latter, by-product of a Buchwald-Hartwig reaction were fully characterized, instead of being thrown away, due to their structural analogy with well-known electrochromic analogues. It turns out that impressive and stable color changes were recorded when embedded in electrochromic devices. Finally, a flexible patterned electrochromic demonstrator was also fabricated, preliminary steps toward a potential and more environmental friendly signposting mass application.

On attempted oxidative cyclisation of isomeric N,N'-diphenylphenylenediamines and their N,N'-dimethyl derivatives by palladium(II) acetate and UV light

The cyclisation of N,N'-diphenyl-o-, m- and p-phenylenediamines and their N,N'-dimethyl derivatives by palladium(II) acetate and UV light separately led to both bis-cyclisation, furnishing indolocarbazoles, and mono-cyclisations with cleavage as well as retention of one substituent, producing substituted carbazoles.
