Sub-phthalocyanine-incorporated Fe(ii) metallo-supramolecular polymer exhibiting blue-to-transmissive electrochromic transition with high transmittance and coloration efficiency.

The preparation of a new Fe(ii) metallo-supramolecular polymer (poly-subPc-Fe) constructed from a terpyridine-functionalized sub-phthalocyanine with axially substituted polyisobutylene is presented. The as-prepared poly-subPc-Fe exhibited an excellent blue-to-transmissive electrochromic transition with high transmittance of 91.8%, superior coloration efficiency of 325.

Highly selective colorimetric detection of cyanide anions in aqueous media by triphenylamine and phenanthro(9,10-d)imidazole based probes.

Two novel fluorescent probes based on triphenylamine (TPC) and phenanthro(9,10-d-imidazole) (PITP) have been synthesized and studied as cyanide selective indicators in aqueous media. Complete colour bleaching was observed due to the nucleophilic addition of cyanide to the 2-vinylmalononitrile of TPC, which results in the disruption of the extended conjugation and turns off the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) process. Furthermore, a visible color change was observed with a large Stokes shift (108 nm) upon the addition of cyanide anions to PITP, due to the formation of hydrogen bonding between the CN anion and -NH of PITP, which increased the electron density on the donor moiety and induced strong ICT.

'REM-related OSA': a forgotten diagnostic? Possible path to under-diagnosing sleep apnea.

Introduction: Restrictive criteria are proposed to define the disorder 'REM-related OSA' disorder, and questions remain about its nosological transcendence and clinical management.

Aim: To evaluate the criteria proposed to define 'REM-related OSA', its relationship with cardio-metabolic comorbidity, and aspects related to it diagnostic.

Patients And Methods: Retrospective observational study of clinical and polysomnographic data from outpatients.
