Article Synopsis
  • Pentacene is a highly versatile organic semiconductor, and new synthetic methods are needed to create derivatives with better solubility, stability, and optoelectronic properties for various uses.
  • This paper introduces a template-directed approach to synthesizing pentacene derivatives, viewing the acene skeleton as a laddered polyene instead of linearly fused hexagons.
  • The synthetic strategy allows for the creation of various acene derivatives and even amphiphilic pentacene and tetracene derivatives, with one specific derivative forming helical wire structures when self-assembled.

A high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method was developed for the determination of maleic acid which was released from starch maleate (SM) through the alkaline hydrolysis reaction. The proper alkaline hydrolysis conditions and LC separation are reported in this study. The starch samples were treated with 50% methanol for 30 minutes, and then hydrolyzed by 0.
