Four new boron-dipyrromethenes (BODIPYs) containing dipyrromethanyl substituents at 3,5-positions, bis(3,5-dipyrromethanyl) BODIPYs 5-8, were synthesized by treating their corresponding 3,5-diformyl BODIPYs 1-4 with excess pyrrole under mild acid catalyzed reaction conditions. The compounds 5-8 are stable and freely soluble in common organic solvents. One-dimensional, two-dimensional NMR, high resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS), absorption, fluorescence, and electrochemical techniques were used to characterize the compounds. The spectral and electrochemical studies indicated that dipyrromethanyl groups at 3,5-positions of BODIPY are less electron deficient compared to formyl groups at the same positions. The anion binding studies indicated that bis(3,5-dipyrromethanyl) BODIPY compounds containing four pyrrole NH groups showed preferential binding with F(-) ion over other anions, as confirmed by using NMR, fluorescence, and electrochemical studies.

We present a versatile approach to designing and utilizing high-performance nonmetal near-infrared (NIR) organic photocatalysts based on aromatic sulfones. Current NIR photocatalysts are mainly metal complexes and inorganic materials, while the few reported nonmetal organic NIR photocatalysts primarily use photosensitization to produce active species such as singlet oxygen. Our sulfone-rosamine-based redox photocatalyst demonstrates exceptional capabilities, including high ability for metal-free photo-oxidative bromination, intrinsically oxygen-independent redox reactions, and remarkable photostability with a turnover number (TON) exceeding 2800.

Chiral plasmonic nanomaterials with fascinating physical and chemical properties show emerging chirality-dependent applications in photonics, catalysis, and sensing. The capability to precisely manipulate the plasmonic chirality in a broad spectral range plays a crucial role in enabling the applications of chiral nanomaterials in diverse and complex scenarios; however, it remains a challenge yet to be addressed. Here we demonstrate a strategy to significantly enhance the tunability of circular dichroism (CD) spectra of chiral nanomaterials by constructing core-shell hybrid metal-semiconductor structures with tailored shells.

To address the pressing demand for hyphenated characterization of the electrode-electrolyte interfaces at the molecular level, we report herein a technical note to demonstrate the hyphenation of electrochemical surface-enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy (SEIRAS) and shell-isolated nanoparticle enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SHINERS). The core setup incorporates a top-down configured Raman optic fiber head loaded on a 3-dimension positioning module and a bottom-up configured attenuated total reflection infrared spectroscopy (ATR-IR) spectroelectrochemical cell accommodated in a custom-designed optical accessory. The feasibility of this integrated design is initially validated by the simultaneous measurement of two model systems, namely, potential dependent adsorption of pyridine on a Au film electrode and the CO reduction reaction on a Cu film electrode by SEIRAS and SHINERS, yielding distinct and complementary spectral information.

In the present study, synthesis, conformational behavior, host-guest complex formation, and electrochemical properties of novel 6-substituted-2-ureido-4-ferrocenylpyrimidines were explored. A comprehensive NMR spectroscopic investigation was carried out to confirm the structure and conformational equilibrium of the ureidopyrimidines through studying the temperature- and concentration dependence of NMR spectra. Low-temperature NMR measurements were used to clarify structural changes inflicted by a 2,6-diaminopyridine guest.
