Abstract
Carbonyl compounds are ubiquitous quality trackers that provide information about food product degradation as well as air and water pollution levels. In addition, they are used as biomarkers for medical diagnoses. With more user-friendly sensors, their fast detection and easy quantification are highly relevant. The synthesis, characterization, and performance assessment of a new sensor based on aniline fluorescence to monitor carbonyls in real time is reported. A cost-effective synthesis using a straightforward sol-gel process led to the construction of a nontoxic silica-based material with high porosity, which can be used with almost no sample preparation. The material exhibits a rapid (< 1 min) fluorescence decrease upon interaction with carbonyl groups. The limit of detection is as low as ca. 5 × 10-4 mol·L-1 for hexanal, while fluorescence extinction occurs at much higher concentrations (5 × 10-1·mol L-1), which enables the sensor to be used with a very broad range of detection. Real-time monitoring is possible since the fluorescence loss correlates with the concentration of carbonyl moieties. The performance was validated in simulating as well as in real media, making this sensor suitable for use in a wide range of applications.

Abstract
Modern paints and coatings are designed for a variety of applications, ranging from fine art to extraterrestrial thermal control. These systems can be engineered to provide lasting color, but there are a limited number of materials that can undergo transient changes in their visual appearance in response to external stimuli without requirements for advanced fabrication strategies. The authors describe color-changing paint formulations that leverage the redox-dependent absorption profile of xanthommatin, a small-molecule colorant found throughout biology, and the electronic properties of titanium dioxide, a ubiquitous whitening agent in commercial coatings. This combination yields reversible photoreduction upon exposure to sunlight, shifting from the oxidized (yellow) form of xanthommatin, to the reduced (red) state. The extent of photoreduction is dependent on the loading density and size of titanium dioxide particles, generating changes in hue angle as large as 77% upon irradiation. These coatings can be blended with non-responsive supplemental colorants to expand the accessible color palette, and irradiated through masks to create transient, disappearing artwork. These formulations demonstrate energy-efficient photochromism using a simple combination of a redox-active dye and metal oxide semiconductor, highlighting the utility of these materials for the development of optically dynamic light-harvesting materials.

Abstract
Condensation of 2-vinylanilines and conjugated aldehydes followed by an efficient light-mediated cyclisation selectively yields either substituted tetrahydroquinolines with typically high dr, or in the presence of an iridium photocatalyst the synthesis of quinoline derivatives is demonstrated. These atom economical processes require mild conditions, with the substrate scope demonstrating excellent site selectivity and functional group tolerance, including azaarene-bearing substrates. A thorough experimental mechanistic investigation explores multiple pathways and the key role that imine and iminium intermediates play in the absorption of visible light to generate reactive excited states. The synthetic utility of the reactions is demonstrated on gram scale quantities in both batch and flow, alongside further manipulation of the medicinally relevant products.

Abstract
Dynamic covalent polymers-dynamers-are adaptive materials that offer timely variant adaptive macroscopic organization across extended scales. In the current study, imine exchange reactions and fluorescence transfer can occur at the interfaces between various solutions and solid state dynameric films. The fluorescence quenching upon imine formations for designed fluorogen was successfully demonstrated, and this tunable fluorescence was further used to study the re-composition of a solid film. Moreover, the dynamic covalent films also exhibited responsiveness to competing amines and acid/base conditions, both in solutions and solid film-solution interface. This work can provide more insights into interface dynamic chemistry and holds great potential for further applications in optical and biomedical materials.

Abstract
EPR and NMR experiments on a quinazolinone-based Schiff's base in DMSO solution showed that irradiation with UV light (365 nm) leads to photochemically-induced isomerization from the anti- to the higher-energy syn-form around the -N-N[double bond, length as m-dash] linkage. The anti- to syn-isomerization was relatively fast, and the maximum amount of conversion detected (25%) was reached within 10 min; thermodynamic equilibrium re-established itself in about 15 min. DFT calculations were performed on the investigated compound and small model systems, and reproduced the experimental fact of the anti-conformer being lower in energy than the syn. Theoretical analysis of excited states, including visualisation of natural transition orbitals, identified possible pathways for syn-anti isomerisation, although the details vary with π-system size, making the use of small models of limited utility. The investigated compound probably isomerises through the third singlet excited state (S3), a π-π* excitation, relaxing through S2, also a π-π* state.

Abstract
Antireflective films for flexible display devices should be made by a coating process rather than a stretching process. Additionally, the compensator, which is the core of the antireflective film, must exhibit a wavelength-independent phase retardation in the visible-light region to act as an ideal retarder. To satisfy all of these requirements, we intend to make a single-layered negative dispersion retarder (SNDR) with a single coating process followed by polymer stabilization. To achieve this goal, X-shaped reactive mesogen (X2RM) is newly synthesized as a guest RM and mixed into a host RM that exhibits a smectic A mesophase. Based on the thermal, spectroscopic, microscopic, and scattering analyses combined with computer simulation, the content of X2RM in the HCM026 molecule is optimized to be 40 wt %. The SNDR thin film is fabricated by coating the optimized H-G mixture on the rubbed alignment substrate and subsequent heat treatment. The trans-to-cis photoisomerization of imine bond can help X2RM to be located in the smectic interlayer of the HCM026. The molecular long axis of HCM026 is parallel to the rubbing direction of the alignment layer and the conjugated benzene rings of X2RM aligned perpendicular to the molecular long axis of smectic RM, which is the ideal molecular arrangement of negative dispersion retarder. Additionally, polarized UV polymerization improves the mechanical and chemical stability as well as the molecular orientation of SNDR.

Abstract
In this work, two oligophenyleneimines type pentamers with terminal aldehydes, designated as DAFCHO (4,4′-((((((2,5-bis(octyloxy)-1,4-phenylene)bis(methanylylidene))bis(azanyl ylidene))bis(9H-fluorene-7,2-diyl))bis(azanylylidene))bis(methanylylidene))bis(2,5-bis(octyloxy) benzaldehyde)) and FDACHO (4,4′-((((((2,5-bis(octyloxy)-1,4-phenylene)bis(methanylylidene))bis (azanylylidene))bis(4,1-phenylene))bis(azanylylidene))bis(methanylylidene))bis(2,5-bis(octyloxy) benzaldehyde)) were synthesized by mechanochemistry method using 2,5-bis(octyloxy) terephtal aldehyde and 2,7-diaminofluorene or 1,4-phenylenediamine. All compounds were spectroscopically characterized using 1H and 13C-NMR, FT-IR and mass spectrometry MALDITOF. The optical properties of the compounds were analyzed by UV-vis spectroscopy using different solvents. We observed that DAFCHO and FDACHO exhibit interesting photochromic properties when they are dissolved in chloroform and exposed to sunlight for 3, 5 and 10 min. The value of the energy band gap was calculated from the absorption spectra without irradiation Egap(optical). It was 2.50 eV for DAFCHO in chloroform solution, and it decreased to 2.34 eV when it is in films. For FDACHO, it was 2.41 eV in solution and 2.27 eV in film. HOMO (Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital), LUMO (Lowest Unoccupied Molecular Orbital) and Egap(electrochemical) values were obtained by electrochemical studies. The results indicate that the compounds can be considered as organic semiconductors since their values are 2.35 eV for DAFCHO and 2.06 eV for FDACHO. The structural and electronic properties of the compounds were corroborated with a DFT (Density Functional Theory) study.

Abstract
This paper describes the synthesis, spectroscopic characterization and quantum mechanical calculations of three azo-azomethine dyes. The dyes were synthesized via condensation reaction between 4-(dimethylamino)benzaldehyde and three different 4-aminobenzene azo dyes. Quantum chemical calculations on the optimized molecular geometry and electron densities of the trans (E) and cis (Z) isomers and their vibrational frequencies have been computed by using DFT/B3LYP density-functional theory with 6-311++G(d,p) basis set in vacuo. The thermodynamic parameters such as total electronic energy E (RB3LYP), enthalpy H298 (sum of electronic and thermal enthalpies), free Gibbs energy G298 (sum of electronic and thermal free Gibbs energies) and dipole moment μ were computed for trans (E) and cis (Z) isomers in order to estimate the ΔEtrans→cis, Δμtrans→cis,ΔHtrans→cis, ΔGtrans→cis and ΔStrans→cis values. After molecular geometry optimization the electronic spectra have been obtained by TD-DFT calculations at same basis set and correlated with the spectra of vapour deposited nanosized films of the dyes. The NBO analysis was performed in order to understand the intramolecular charge transfer and energy of resonance stabilization. Solvatochromism was investigated by UV-VIS spectroscopy in five different organic solvents with increasing polarity. The dynamic photoisomerization experiments have been performed in DMF by pump lasers λ=355nm (mostly E→Z) and λ=491nm (mostly Z→E) in spectral region 300nm - 800nm at equal concentrations and times of illumination in order to investigate the photodynamical trans-cis-trans properties of the CHN and NN chromophore groups of the dyes.

Abstract
We report the controlled self-organization and switching of newly designed Schiff base (E)-4-((4-(phenylethynyl) benzylidene) amino) benzenethiol (EPBB) molecules on a Au (111) surface at room temperature. Scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy (STM/STS) were used to image and analyze the conformational changes of the EPBB molecules. The conformational change of the molecules was induced by using the STM tip while increasing the tunneling current. The switching of a domain or island of molecules was shown to be induced by the STM tip during scanning. Unambiguous fingerprints of the switching mechanism were observed via STM/STS measurements. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering was employed, to control and identify quantitatively the switching mechanism of molecules in a monolayer. Density functional theory calculations were also performed in order to understand the microscopic details of the switching mechanism. These calculations revealed that the molecular switching behavior stemmed from the strong interaction of the EPBB molecules with the STM tip. Our approach to controlling intermolecular mechanics provides a path towards the bottom-up assembly of more sophisticated molecular machines.

Abstract
An electronic push-pull fluorophore consisting of an intrinsically fluorescent central fluorene capped with two diaminophenyl groups was prepared. An aminothiophene was conjugated to the two flanking diphenylamines through a fluorescent quenching azomethine bond. X-ray crystallographic analysis confirmed that the fluorophore formed multiple intermolecular supramolecular bonds. It formed two hydrogen bonds involving a terminal amine, resulting in an antiparallel supramolecular dimer. Hydrogen bonding was also confirmed by FTIR and NMR spectroscopic analyses, and further validated theoretically by DFT calculations. Intrinsic fluorescence quenching modes could be reduced by intermolecular supramolecular contacts. These contacts could be engaged at high concentrations and in thin films, resulting in fluorescence enhancement. The fluorescence of the fluorophore could also be restored to an intensity similar to its azomethine-free counterpart with the addition of water in >50 % v/v in tetrahydrofuran (THF), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and acetonitrile. The fluorophore also exhibited reversible oxidation and its color could be switched between yellow and blue when oxidized. Reversible electrochemically mediated fluorescence turn-off on turn-on was also possible.

Abstract
The absolute fluorescence quantum yield (Φfl) of a polyfluorenyl azomethine homopolymer was measured as a function of solvent polarity. The solvent induced and temperature dependent fluorescence of the homopolymer were also investigated and they were compared to the corresponding monomer and copolymer. The Φfl of the homopolymer was consistent (45-70%), regardless of solvent polarity with Stokes shifts up to 7460 cm(-1) in ethanol. In contrast, the Φfl of its corresponding monomer decreased from 60% in ethanol to 1% in toluene, whereas a Φfl < 5% for its analogous copolymer was measured. Moderate fluorescence yields (Φfl ≈ 25%) were also possible in thin film when co-depositing the homopolymer with PMMA. Cryofluorescence was used to probe the excited state deactivation modes. Deactivation by internal conversion was found to compete with fluorescence. The fluorescence deactivation pathways of the homopolymer and its corresponding monomer could be suppressed at 77 K, resulting in fluorescence turn-on. Both fluorophores were found to detect nitroaromatics.
