While organic donor-acceptor (D-A) molecules are widely employed in multiple areas, the application of more D-A molecules could be limited because of an inherent polarity sensitivity that inhibits photochemical processes. Presented here is a facile chemical modification to attenuate solvent-dependent mechanisms of excited-state quenching through addition of a β-carbonyl-based polar substituent. The results reveal a mechanism wherein the β-carbonyl substituent creates a structural buffer between the donor and the surrounding solvent. Through computational and experimental analyses, it is demonstrated that the β-carbonyl simultaneously attenuates two distinct solvent-dependent quenching mechanisms. Using the β-carbonyl substituent, improvements in the photophysical properties of commonly used D-A fluorophores and their enhanced performance in biological imaging are shown.

Bioinspired manganese complexes based on N4 ligands, with a more rigid, chiral diamine derived from proline and two benzimidazoles, were synthesized and applied to epoxidize olefins with hydrogen peroxide as a clean oxidant. Notably, 60-99 % isolated yields and excellent ee values (up to 95 %) were obtained by using low catalyst loadings (0.01-0.2 mol %; see scheme; F green, S yellow). Copyright
