Ionic crystals (ICs) of the azobenzene derivatives show photoinduced IC-ionic liquid (IL) phase transition (photoliquefaction) upon UV-irradiation, and the resulting cis-azobenzene ILs are reversibly photocrystallized by illumination with visible light. The photoliquefaction of ICs is accompanied by a significant increase in ionic conductivity at ambient temperature. The photoliquefaction also brings the azobenzene ICs further significance as photon energy storage materials. The cis-IL shows thermally induced crystallization to the trans-IC phase. This transition is accompanied by exothermic peaks with a total ΔH of 97.1 kJmol-1, which is almost double the conformational energy stored in cisazobenzene chromophores. Thus, the integration of photoresponsive ILs and self-assembly pushes the limit of solar thermal batteries.

Paragraph 0112-0115, (2016/10/10)
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an azobenzene compound capable of repeated structural changes without heating, and a heat pump system using the same. SOLUTION: An azobenzene compound represented by the general formula (1) and undergoing cis-trans isomerization reaction upon light irradiation is used as a heat medium of a heat pump system. In the formula, at least one of R1 to R3 is (CH2CH2O)n-R10; R4 is R11, O-R11, NH-R11, or COO-R11; X- is Cl-, Br-, I-, BF4-, PF6-, CH3(CH2)nSO3-, TsO-, (YSO2)2 N-, or (NC)2 N-; n is an integer between 0 and 2; and Y is F, CF3, or C2F5.

The inhibitory effect of 108 4,6-diamino-1,2-dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-1-(substituted-phenyl)-s-triazines on murine L5178Y tumor cells, resistant and sensitive to methotrexate (MTX), has been studied.From the pI50 values, quantitative structure-activity relationships have been formulated which show that the lipophilic triazines are much more inhibitory against resistant cells than methotrexate or hydrophilic triazines.The results are compared with the behavior of other antifolate drugs that have been used in chemotherapy, as well as with eight antitumor drugs that are notantifolates.The acquired resistance of these cells toward hydrophilic antifolates may be attributed to the combined effect of an impaired active-transport system, a change in the conformation of dihydrofolate reductase in the resistant cells, and an amplified production of dihydrofolate reductase in the resistant cells.
