Unsymmetrical azines are useful functional materials. The synthesis of unsymmetrical azines via iminyl radical N-N bond cross-coupling is dramatically challenging compared with the N-N homocoupling. The balance of two different iminyl radical intermediates is crucial. The control of the selectivity of N-N coupling over the N-abstraction of a hydrogen atom is also vital. A dual functional photocatalyst is the key to access the synergistic energy transfer (EnT)-single-electron transfer (SET) relay (EnT triggered SET) which can work both as an EnT PC and as a SET PC. In this work, by the strategy of synergistic EnT-SET relay catalyzed by the single dual functional organophotocatalyst , the cross coupling of two different amyl iminyl radicals for the synthesis of unsymmetrical azines has been achieved. A twisted carbazole-cored highly electron-rich heterocycle plays dual roles as an EnT and SET organophotocatalyst.

An efficient procedure for synthesizing the designed compounds starts with 5-acetyl-3--(4-sulfamoylphenyl)-2-imino-1,3,4-thiadi-azoline 4. The / configuration for compound 5 was investigated based on spectral analysis combined with quantum mechanical calculation applying the DFT-B3LYP method and 6-31G(d) basis set.

Azines are interesting compounds exhibiting aggregation-induced-emission (AIE) and twisted-intramolecular-charge-transfer (TICT) properties that have exciting prospects in chemosensing and bioimaging applications. They commonly have symmetrical structures and there is no report on red-emissive unsymmetrical azines. Herein, we report a novel class of orange-to-red emissive hydroxybenzothiazole(HBT)-based unsymmetrical azines (BTDPA) with triple photophysical characteristics of ESIPT-TICT-AIE.

A mixture of 2-pyridine carboxaldehyde, 4-formylimidazole (or 2-methyl-4-formylimidazole), and NiCl·6HO in a molar ratio of 2:2:1 was reacted with two equivalents of hydrazine monohydrate in methanol, followed by the addition of aqueous NHPF solution, afforded a Ni complex with two unsymmetric azine-based ligands, [Ni(HL)](PF) () or [Ni(HL)](PF) (), in a high yield, where HL denotes 2-pyridylmethylidenehydrazono-(4-imidazolyl)methane and HL is its 2-methyl-4-imidazolyl derivative. The spectroscopic measurements and elemental analysis confirmed the phase purity of the bulk products, and the single-crystal X-ray analysis revealed the molecular and crystal structures of the Ni complexes bearing an unsymmetric HL or HL azines in a tridentate κ, , coordination mode. The HL complex with a methanol solvent, ·MeOH, crystallizes in the orthorhombic non-centrosymmetric space group 222 with Z = 4, affording conglomerate crystals, while the HL complex, ·HO·EtO, crystallizes in the monoclinic and centrosymmetric space group 2/ with Z = 4.

It remains a great challenge to achieve polar order in organic molecular crystals because anti-parallel alignment of side-by-side molecules is intrinsically preferred. We have addressed this problem with a rational design that focuses on the polar stacking of parallel beloamphiphile monolayers (PBAMs) with strong lateral quadrupole-quadrupole attractions. We employ arene-arene interactions as lateral synthons.
