We herein propose an approach to visualize the Menschutkin reaction at an interface between a self-assembled monolayer with nucleophilic properties and water containing alkyl halides. An organic field-effect transistor functionalized with a nucleophilic monolayer has detected alkylation depending on differences in the leaving group ability and the bulkiness of electrophilic alkyls.

Article Synopsis
- Tetraphenylethene (TPE) is a compound with significant applications in creating fluorescent nanomaterials and biosensors, but challenges remain in making TPE aggregates that exhibit strong fluorescence and electrochemiluminescence.* -
- This study presents a highly sensitive bacterial ECL biosensor developed from TPE-based covalent organic polymer nanoparticles, which were synthesized using a straightforward Menschutkin reaction with specific cross-linking agents.* -
- The resulting biosensor demonstrated exceptional sensitivity (0.19 CFU mL detection limit), a wide linear detection range, and impressive ECL efficiency, significantly enhancing its potential for large-scale detection of harmful bacteria.*

As an effective ECL emitter, tetraphenylethene (TPE)-based molecules have recently been reported with aggregation-induced electrochemiluminescence (AIECL) property, while it is still a big challenge to control its aggregation states and obtain uniform aggregates with intense ECL emission. In this study, we develop three TPE derivatives carrying a pyridinium group, an alkyl chain, and a quaternary ammonium group via the Menschutkin reaction. The resulting molecules exhibit significantly red-shifted FL and enhanced ECL emissions due to the tunable reduction of the energy gap between the highest occupied molecular orbitals (HOMOs) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals (LUMOs).

Recent years have witnessed intensive research activity in exploring novel metal-free organocatalysts for catalyzing the coupling reactions of CO and epoxides to afford cyclic or polymeric carbonates. In this direction, herein we report a series of boron-phosphonium organocatalysts for catalyzing the coupling reactions of CO and epoxides. These organophosphonium catalysts were synthesized in high yields by following a two step protocol involving Menschutkin and hydroboration reactions in succession.

The present study aims to synthesize and characterize two quaternary ammonium (QAM) based monomers such as - dimethyl-hexadecyl-methacryloxyethyl-ammonium iodide (DHMAI) and 2-dimethyl-2-dodecyl-1-methacryloxyethyl ammonium iodine (DDMAI) and assess their cytotoxicity and antimicrobial properties. The study also aims to incorporate the optimized concentration of these monomers as copolymerizing monomers into conventional Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) denture base resin and evaluate their suitability for prosthetic applications. DHMAI and DDMAI monomers were synthesized through a Menschutkin reaction and their chemical structure was characterized using FT-IR and H-NMR spectroscopy.
