Metal carbenes, derived from the decomposition of diazo compounds, are valued for their capacity to perform a variety of transformations. A unique class of acyclic, bis-diazo compounds, the donor-acceptor-acceptor 1,3-bisdiazo compounds, are described herein. These compounds are available from acyclic β-keto esters and especially reactive at the donor-acceptor diazo unit. These bisdiazo compounds react smoothly with rhodium acetate and alcohols to give monodiazo, cyclic orthoesters, presumably through the capture of a transient oxonium ylide.

The azomethine with a donor-acceptor-acceptor-acceptor-donor structure has been synthesized and characterized. Azomethine exhibited luminescence properties and a positive solvatochromic effect. Electropolymerization on terminated triphenylamine groups was used to obtain a thin layer of the polyazomethine .

Article Synopsis
- Exciplex emitters exhibit thermally activated delayed fluorescence but face challenges due to intermolecular charge transfer, leading to energy loss via non-radiative decay channels.
- The study explores various factors like molecular rigidity and donor-acceptor interactions to understand their influence on non-radiative decay in different exciplex emitters.
- A significant photoluminescence quantum yield of 84.1% and a maximum external quantum efficiency of 23.8% in electroluminescent devices were achieved, highlighting the potential of rigid exciplex structures to enhance performance and reduce energy loss.

Article Synopsis
- The text discusses the development of a new photocatalyst, FS-OHOMe-COF, for producing hydrogen peroxide from water and oxygen using solar energy, addressing common efficiency issues like poor charge separation and stability.
- This new approach employs a mixed-linker strategy that enhances charge mobility and promotes surface reactions due to special sulfone units, resulting in better performance.
- The FS-OHOMe-COF catalyst shows high efficiency, achieving a hydrogen peroxide output of 19 mM after 72 hours and maintaining activity over 192 hours of use.

Self-monitoring materials have promising applications in structural health monitoring. However, developing organic afterglow materials for self-monitoring is a highly intriguing yet challenging task. Herein, we design two organic molecules with a twisted donor-acceptor-acceptor' configuration and achieve dual-emissive afterglow with tunable lifetimes (86.

Photoexcitation of molecular electron donor and/or acceptor chromophore aggregates can greatly affect their charge-transfer dynamics. Excitonic coupling not only alters the energy landscape in the excited state but may also open new photophysical pathways, such as symmetry-breaking charge separation (SB-CS). Here, we investigate the impact of excitonic coupling on a covalent donor-acceptor-acceptor system comprising a perylene donor (Per) and two perylenediimide (PDI) acceptor chromophores in which the three components are π-stacked in a geometry that is slipped along their long axes ().
