It is recognized that metal organic complexes serve as sensitizers can present various degrees of challenges viz. synthesis and stability for photonic applications such triplet-triplet annihilation based photon upconversion (TTA-PUC). Presently, researchers, including our group, are turning their attention toward purely triplet sensitizers, which be handled more easily management science. In this review, we surveyed recently developed all-organic chromophoric systems were devised used...
Abstract Sonication‐induced tryptophan‐ and tyrosine‐based peptide bolaamphiphile nanofibers have been used to synthesize stabilize Pd nanoparticles under physiological conditions. The self‐assembly process has thoroughly studied by using several spectroscopic microscopic techniques. stiffness of the soft hydrogel matrix was measured an oscillatory rheological experiment. FTIR circular dichroism (CD) experiments revealed a hydrogen‐bonded β‐sheet conformation molecules in gel‐phase medium....

We report a novel reductive desulfurization reaction involving π-acidic naphthalene diimides (NDI) 1 using thionating agents such as Lawesson's reagent. Along with the expected thionated NDI derivatives 2–6, new heterocyclic naphtho-p-quinodimethane compounds 7 depicting broken/reduced symmetry were successfully isolated and fully characterized. Empirical studies theoretical modeling suggest that was formed via six-membered ring oxathiaphosphenine intermediate rather than usual four-membered...
