Article Synopsis
- Four novel room-temperature liquid-crystalline dimers have been created, which consist of a wedge-shaped molecule linked to either cyanobiphenyl, cholesteryl, pentaalkynylbenzene, or triphenylene.* -
- The dimers with pentaalkynylbenzene and triphenylene show significant ambipolar charge carrier mobilities, reaching up to 10 cm²/V·s.* -
- These mobilities were assessed using a technique called time-of-flight (ToF), highlighting the compounds' potential for electronic applications.*
Stimuli modulated photophysical properties of a new asymmetric multifunctional molecular probe, 2-(pyren-1-yl)-5-(pyridin-4-yl)thiazolo [5,4-d]thiazole (PYTZ-P) bearing electron-rich pyrene and electron-deficient pyridine units linked through a π-conjugated thiazolo [5,4-d]thiazole (TTz) bridge are reported. Its sensitivity towards protons (TFA) in solution is manifested in the form of bathochromically shifted emission that spreads all over the visible region, and is related to the increased acceptor strength of pyridine upon protonation and subsequent enhanced magnitude of intramolecular charge-transfer in the probe. Similar modulation of the luminescence behaviour of the probe was also observed in the solid state.
