Because of their innate ability to store and then release energy, long-persistent luminescence (LPL) materials have garnered strong research interest in a wide range of multidisciplinary fields, such as biomedical sciences, theranostics, and photonic devices. Although many inorganic LPL systems with afterglow durations of up to hours and days have been reported, organic systems have had difficulties reaching similar timescales. In this work, a design principle based on the successes of inorganic systems to produce an organic LPL (OLPL) system through the use of a strong organic electron trap is proposed. The resulting system generates detectable afterglow for up to 7 h, significantly longer than any other reported OLPL system. The design strategy demonstrates an easy methodology to develop organic long-persistent phosphors, opening the door to new OLPL materials.

Aleochara pseudochrysorrhoa has a glandular complex known as the tergal gland. Generally, the tergal gland secretion (TGS) has been described to have defensive function, but some reports point to a possible secondary function of this complex. For example, the TGS of the related species A. curtula has been demonstrated to possess an important role in intraspecies communication. In this work, we describe the chemical composition of the TGS of A. pseudochrysorrhoa males and females. Eleven compounds were identified based on GC/MS and GC-FT-IR analyses, retention indexes and derivatization products. Furthermore, a brief study regarding the biological function of the TGS in mating behavior is provided, in which the stimulation of male grasping response reaction by female TGS proved to be dependent on concentration.

To clarify the contribution of charge delocalization in a lipophilic ion to the efficacy of its permeation through a lipid membrane, we compared the behavior of alkyl derivatives of triphenylphosphonium, tricyclohexylphosphonium and trihexylphosphonium bo

The development of the first intermolecular Rh2(II)-catalyzed aziridination of olefins using anilines as nonactivated N atom precursors and an iodine(III) reagent as the stoichiometric oxidant is reported. This reaction requires the transfer of an N-aryl nitrene fragment from the iminoiodinane intermediate to a Rh2(II) carboxylate catalyst; in the absence of a catalyst only diaryldiazene formation was observed. This N-aryl aziridination is general and can be successfully realized by using as little as 1 equiv of the olefin. Di-, tri-, and tetrasubstituted cyclic or acylic olefins can be employed as substrates, and a range of aniline and heteroarylamine N atom precursors are tolerated. The Rh2(II)-catalyzed N atom transfer to the olefin is stereospecific as well as chemo- and diastereoselective to produce the N-aryl aziridine as the only amination product. Because the chemistry of nonactivated N-aryl aziridines is underexplored, the reactivity of N-aryl aziridines was explored toward a range of nucleophiles to stereoselectively access privileged 1,2-stereodiads unavailable from epoxides, and removal of the N-2,4-dinitrophenyl group was demonstrated to show that functionalized primary amines can be constructed.
Phosphonium-based ionic liquids: Economic and efficient catalysts for the solvent-free cycloaddition of CO2 to epoxidized soybean vegetable oil to obtain potential bio-based polymers precursors

A series of phosphonium-based ionic liquids have been prepared in one step in a simple way from inexpensive feedstocks. The prepared ionic liquids have been successfully tested as catalysts in the solvent-free cycloaddition reaction of CO2 to an epoxidized soybean oil to obtain carbonated soybean oil that can be potentially employed as bio-monomer in the synthesis for bio-based polymers. The catalytic performance of these ionic liquids was compared to the widely used and benchmark catalyst in CO2 cycloaddition to epoxides reaction, namely tetrabutylammonium bromide at different reaction conditions. The influence of some reaction parameters such as temperature, CO2 pressure, reaction time and catalyst amount was studied. It has been found that the solubility of the prepared ionic liquids in the reaction media (epoxidized soybean oil) is a key factor that limits the catalytic performance of some of the synthesized ionic liquids. All prepared ionic liquids have shown higher thermal stability that the benchmark catalyst and three of them have shown superior catalytic performance. The best results in terms of conversion and selectivity have been obtained with dodecyltriphenylphosphonium bromide (5) achieving almost full conversion (99.8%) and excellent selectivity (84.0%) after 5 h reaction at 160 oC and 40 bar of CO2. Outstanding results compared to those reported in the literature with similar catalysts in the solvent-free CO2 cycloaddtion to an epoxidized soybean oil to obtain the corresponding carbonated oil have been achieved. Considering the facile synthesis of catalyst 5, the large availability and non-expensive of the feedstocks and its catalytic performance it can be considered a valuable and green alternative for CO2 fixation to epoxidized vegetable oil.

Interactions on the molecular level control structure as well as function. Especially interfaces between innocent alkyl groups are hardly studied although they are of great importance in larger systems. Herein, London dispersion in conjunction with solvent interactions between linear alkyl chains was examined with an azobenzene-based experimental setup. Alkyl chains in all meta positions of the azobenzene core were systematically elongated, and the change in rate for the thermally induced Z→E isomerization in n-decane was determined. The stability of the Z-isomer increased with longer chains and reached a maximum for n-butyl groups. Further elongation led to faster isomerization. The origin of the intramolecular interactions was elaborated by various techniques, including 1H NOESY NMR spectroscopy. The results indicate that there are additional long-range interactions between n-alkyl chains with the opposite phenyl core in the Z-state. These interactions are most likely dominated by attractive London dispersion. This work provides rare insight into the stabilizing contributions of highly flexible groups in an intra- as well as an intermolecular setting.

Alkene hydroarylation forms carbon-carbon bonds between two foundational building blocks of organic chemistry: olefins and aromatic rings. In the absence of electronic bias or directing groups, only the Friedel-Crafts reaction allows arenes to engage alkenes with Markovnikov selectivity to generate quaternary carbons. However, the intermediacy of carbocations precludes the use of electron-deficient arenes, including Lewis basic heterocycles. Here we report a highly Markovnikov-selective, dual-catalytic olefin hydroarylation that tolerates arenes and heteroarenes of any electronic character. Hydrogen atom transfer controls the formation of branched products and arene halogenation specifies attachment points on the aromatic ring. Mono-, di-, tri-, and tetra-substituted alkenes yield Markovnikov products including quaternary carbons within nonstrained rings.
