A new monolayer platform based on pyrylium has been developed which is reactive towards amine-terminated (bio)molecules. Upon reaction, a switch in fluorescence properties of the monolayer signifies successful immobilization of these molecules.

Tetrabromo aromatics can be synthesized by the Fischer-Zimmermann condensation of appropriate pyrylium salts with arylene dicarboxylic acid salts. Their cyclization by intramolecular Yamamoto coupling yields strained bicyclophanes with adjustable sizes and different intraannular bridges. All compounds adsorb at the solid/liquid interface on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) and are investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) with submolecular resolution.

2D polymer sheets with six positively charged pyrylium groups at each pore edge in a stacked single crystal can be transformed into a 2D polymer with six pyridines per pore by exposure to gaseous ammonia. This reaction furnishes still a crystalline material with tunable protonation degree at regular nano-sized pores promising as separation membrane. The exfoliation is compared for both 2D polymers with the latter being superior.

Six gases [N(CH(3))(3), NH(2)OH, CF(3)COOH, HCl, NO(2) and O(3)] were selected to probe the surface of seven different types of combustion aerosol samples (amorphous carbon, flame soot) and three types of TiO(2) nanoparticles using heterogeneous, i.e. gas-surface reactions.
