Cyano-substituted oligo(p-phenylene vinylene) derivatives can display piezochromic fluorescence. This rare and desirable effect is achieved by balancing π–π aliphatic interactions in these molecules through the variation of electron density central ring length peripheral tails. leads to fluorophores which adopt different supramolecular structures as a result change their solid-state emission characteristics upon compression.
A new sterically encumbered bifunctional ligand has been developed, and its ability to provide simultaneous stabilization for two low-coordinate phosphorus centers allowed the synthesis of hybrid inorganic-organic conjugated materials. The phosphaalkene polymers have prepared from a diphospha-Wittig reagent are exclusively E-configured about P=C bonds. An unprecedented polymer having diphosphene (-P=P-) units in main chain is also reported. soluble were characterized by UV-visible...

Phosphaalkenes (RP=CR 2 ) and diphosphenes (RP=PR) are main group analogues of alkenes (R C=CR ). Molecules featuring such multiply bonded phosphorus functionalities often display structural features chemical reactivities that mimic their purely organic counterparts, lending credence to the claim these compounds “carbon copies”. We have been expanding this analogy include oligomers polymers with extended conjugation directly involve P=C P=P units. Many materials, however, little or no...
Solubility is not the only advantage imparted on iodosylbenzene upon introduction of intramolecular I⋅⋅⋅O secondary bonds. These bonds also enabled first single-crystal structural determination such a species. The structure 2-(tBuSO2)C6H4IO (1) reveals how can compete with intermolecular which normally dominate properties iodosylbenzene. corresponding iodylbenzene shows similar features.
Phosphoranylidenephosphines DmpPPMe3 (1a, Dmp = 2,6-Mes2C6H3) and Mes*PPMe3 (1b, Mes* 2,4,6-But3C6H2) act as 'Phospha-Wittig' reagents with aldehydes providing phosphaalkenes [ArPC(H)R] in high yields.
A soluble (E)-poly(p-phenylenephosphaalkene) having sterically encumbering ligands has been prepared by a phospha-Wittig reaction. This material exhibits bathochromic shift with respect to E-PPV and representative model oligomers. We also report the first fluorescence study of poly(p-phenylenephosphaalkene) find that this fluorescence, though modest intensity relative similarly sized carbon-based analogues.

Tetraarylphenyls of the form 2,3,5,6-Ar4C6 (Ar = p-tert-butylphenyl) are investigated as sterically demanding ligands for syntheses compounds having two p-phenylene-bridged phosphorus centers. The precursor to such materials, 1,4-diiodo-2,3,5,6-tetrakis(p-tert-butylphenyl)benzene (1), is readily obtained via a one-pot procedure in 68% yield.

The reduction products of two diphosphaalkenes (1 and 2) a bis(diphosphene) (3) containing sterically encumbered ligands corresponding to the general formulas Ar-X=Y-Ar'-Y=X-Ar, have been investigated by EPR spectroscopy. Due steric constraints in these molecules, at least one dihedral angles between CXYC plane either Ar or Ar' is largely nonzero and, hence, discourages conformations that are optimal for maximal conjugation P=X (or P=Y) aromatic pi systems.
