Abstract
Cyclic voltammetry experiments on 2,3,5,6-tetramethyl-1,4-phenylenediamine (P) in acetonitrile in the presence of varying concentrations of alcohols indicate that the oxidized forms of the compound (P.+ and P2+ ) interact with the alcohols through a hydrogen-bonding mechanism where P.+ and P2+ act as the hydrogen donor and the alcohols act as acceptors. However, the neutral form (P) largely acts as a hydrogen acceptor but only for strong hydrogen donors that do not undergo proton-transfer reactions with the phenylenediamine. These results were ascertained based on measuring the difference in potential of the two one-electron transfer reactions (ΔEPox(1, 2) =|EPox(1) -EPox(2) |) in the oxidative electrochemistry of P, which thereby allows a simple measure of relative hydrogen bonding strengths.

Abstract
The voltammetric behavior of 2,3,5,6-tetramethyl-1,4-phenylenediamine was found to be able to differentiate the hydrogen acceptor abilities of electroinactive pyridine compounds in acetonitrile. Weak and strong hydrogen acceptors were distinguished through the onset of a third oxidation process that came about at sub-stoichiometric amounts of strong hydrogen acceptors, but not in the presence of weak hydrogen acceptors. This additional oxidation reaction occurred at a potential between the two 1 e- -oxidation reactions that phenylenediamines typically undergo (i.e. EPox(1) <EPox(3) <EPox(2) , with EPox(1) and EPox(2) representing the electrochemical conversion of the neutral phenylenediamine into the radical cation and thereafter to the quinonediimine dication) as well as at the expense of the second electrochemical reaction. EPox(2) and EPox(3) were observed to shift towards less positive potentials with increasing concentrations of weak or strong hydrogen acceptors, respectively, whereas EPox(1) remained virtually unaffected. This allows the electrochemical parameters ΔEPox(1, 2) =|EPox(1) -EPox(2) | and ΔEPox(1, 3) =|EPox(1) -EPox(3) | to be employed as measures of the hydrogen-bonding strengths within each category, to which they were found to be highly reproducible and responsive to steric, electronic, inductive, and mesomeric effects. The electrochemical findings concur with available aqueous pKa data of the protonated pyridine compounds but were, however, in poor agreement with results obtained by density functional theory calculations.

Abstract
RATIONALE Coordination of a metal cation by a nitro group is rare and the interaction between them is usually weak. Examples of complexes in which such an interaction takes place are metal complexes of cyclams containing nitrophenyl or nitrobenzyl substituents. It seemed to be interesting to check if in the complexes of the respective crown ether conjugates the interaction can also take place. METHODS We synthesized the respective conjugates of aza-18-crown-6, namely fluoro-substituted N-nitrophenylaza-18C6 conjugates. Their complexes with alkali and alkali earth metal cations were generated in the gas phase by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). Both collision-induced dissociation 'in-source' and collision-induced dissociation tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-CID-'in-source' and ESI-CID-MS/MS) were used to study the gas-phase stabilities of the generated complexes. RESULTS The gas-phase decomposition of the studied complexes indicated that the complexes formed by the conjugates containing a nitro group at the ortho position are more stable than those formed by the conjugates with a nitro group at the para position. CONCLUSIONS This indicates that a metal cation complexed by crown ether ring is additionally coordinated by a nitro group in the scorpionate mode. To the best of our knowledge, our finding provide the first example of a complex in which a metal cation complexed by a crown ether ring is additionally coordinated by a nitro group.

Abstract
In a systematic approach we synthesized a new series of fluorescent probes incorporating donor-acceptor (D-A) substituted 1,2,3-triazoles as conjugative π-linkers between the alkali metal ion receptor N-phenylaza-[18]crown-6 and different fluorophoric groups with different electron-acceptor properties (4-naphthalimide, meso-phenyl-BODIPY and 9-anthracene) and investigated their performance in organic and aqueous environments (physiological conditions). In the charge-transfer (CT) type probes 1, 2 and 7, the fluorescence is almost completely quenched by intramolecular CT (ICT) processes involving charge-separated states. In the presence of Na(+) and K(+) ICT is interrupted, which resulted in a lighting-up of the fluorescence in acetonitrile. Among the investigated fluoroionophores, compound 7, which contains a 9-anthracenyl moiety as the electron-accepting fluorophore, is the only probe which retains light-up features in water and works as a highly K(+)/Na(+)-selective probe under simulated physiological conditions. Virtually decoupled BODIPY-based 6 and photoinduced electron transfer (PET) type probes 3-5, where the 10-substituted anthracen-9-yl fluorophores are connected to the 1,2,3-triazole through a methylene spacer, show strong ion-induced fluorescence enhancement in acetonitrile, but not under physiological conditions. Electrochemical studies and theoretical calculations were used to assess and support the underlying mechanisms for the new ICT and PET 1,2,3-triazole fluoroionophores.
