    Abstract Anion-exchange membranes (AEMs) are involved in a wide range of applications, including fuel cells and water electrolysis. A straightforward method for the preparation of efficient AEMs consists of polymer functionalization with robust anion-exchange sites.

    Abstract We report on vapochromic films suitable for detecting volatile organic compounds (VOCs), based on new polystyrene copolymers containing julolidine fluorescent molecular rotors (JCAEM). Poly(styrene-co-hydroxyethylmethacrylate) copolymers functionalized with cyanovinyl-julolidine moieties of different compositions were prepared, (P(STY-co-JCAEM)(m) with m = 0.06-0.61). The sensing performance of the spin-coated copolymer films demonstrated significant vapochromism when exposed to VOCs characterized by high vapour pressure and a favourable interaction with the polymer matrix, such as Et

    Abstract An efficient synthesis of symmetrical 1,2-disubstituted 4,5-dialkynylimidazoles by Sonogashira alkynylation of the corresponding 4,5-dibromo derivatives was developed. Moreover, through a careful tuning of the palladium ligand, unsymmetrical 1,2-disusbtituted 4,5-dialkynylimidazoles were also prepared through a regioselective C5 alkynylation of 4,5-dibromoimidazoles, followed by a second alkynylation involving the 4-bromo derivatives so obtained. This interesting class of imidazole-fused enediynes is also able to give thermal Bergman cycloaromatization (BC), as proved by DSC experiments.

    Abstract Here, we have studied, with a combined experimental and computational approach, the effect of the crystal environment and aggregation on the electronic properties of Pigment Red 179, which affect both its color and optical energy gap. Spectra acquired in the near-infrared and visible range of energies suggest that this molecule is indeed a "cool" dye, which can be employed as a red pigment that provides effective color coverage to different substrates without contributing to their heating during light irradiation. Spectra acquired on different polymer mixtures at different pigment concentrations (i.e., 2.5-10 wt %) suggest that absorption features depend on chromophoric arrangements promoted by the strong intermolecular π-π interactions. Calculations, performed at the time-dependent density functional theory level, allowed to both attribute the nature of the electronic transitions causing the observed spectra involved and understand the effect of the environment. Indeed, the visible spectra of the pigment is dominated by two localized transitions, with negligible charge transfer for both a dye monomer and dimer either in vacuum or acetonitrile solution. Instead, models including the crystal environment of the pigment show the presence of a high-wavelength S

    Abstract The perylene bisimide derivative Paliogen Black (P-black) is proposed as a new chromogenic probe that shows visible (vis) and near-infrared (NIR) responses after mechanical solicitations of host linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) films. P-black is reported to display strong absorption in the vis spectrum and unusual reflective and cooling features in the NIR region. Uniaxial deformation of the 2.5, 5, and 10 wt% P-black/LLDPE films yields a dichroic absorption under polarized light with color variations attributed by the computational analysis to the distinct anisotropic behavior of the transition dipole moments of P-black chromophores. When LLDPE films are deformed, P-black aggregates reduce their size from ≈30-40 µm to ≈5-10 µm that, in turn, causes reflectivity losses of about 30-40% at the maximum elongation. This gives rise to warming of 5-6 °C of the locally oriented film placed in contact with a black substrate under the illumination with an IR lamp for 5 s. These features combined with the high sensitivity of the vis-NIR response toward mechanical solicitations render P-black as a new solution to detect uniaxial deformations of plastic films through both optical and thermal outputs.

    Abstract Sunlight concentration is a promising path to cost-effective photovoltaic (PV) technologies. Compared to standard concentrators based on geometrical optics, luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs) appear to be viable and convenient alternatives because sunlight concentration to PV occurs with diffuse light and there is no need for sun tracking or cooling apparatuses. In this study, we report on the optical efficiencies of luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs) based on poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) thin films doped with a red-emitting zinc(ii) complex of the D–A–D type ligand N,N′-bis(2-hydroxy-1-naphthylidene)-diaminomaleonitrile (ZnL). ZnL is attractive for use in LSC owing to its easy and cheap synthesis. ZnL in PMMA shows an emission band at 624 nm, a Stokes shift of 34 nm and an average QY of 23%, data comparable to those recorded in solution and efficiently predicted by DFT calculations. A study of ZnL/PMMA LSC yields optical efficiencies of 7%, which is comparable to those based on the near unity QY fluorophores such as Lumogen Red. These performances were attributed to the higher emission red-shift and larger Stokes shift of ZnL that prevent the loss of efficiencies due to self-absorption and possibly circumvent its lower QY.

    Abstract The present work is aimed at a deeper investigation of two recently synthesized heteroaromatic fluorophores by means of a computational multilayer approach, integrating quantum mechanics (QM) and molecular mechanics (MM). In particular, dispersion of the title dyes in a polymer matrix is studied in connection with potential applications as photoactive species in luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs). Molecular dynamics simulations, based on accurate QM-derived force fields, reveal increased stiffness of these organic dyes when going from CHCl3 solution to the polymer matrix. QM/MM computations of UV spectra for snapshots extracted from MD simulations show that this different flexibility permits explaining the different spectral shapes obtained experimentally for the two different environments. Moreover, the general spectroscopic trends are reproduced well by static computations employing a polarizable continuum description of environmental effects.

    Abstract We describe a simple but effective strategy for imparting light-responsive peculiarity to polystyrene films. A pH-sensitive fluorescent dye having the electron-poor pyridine nucleus as a key structural feature was synthesized and dispersed at low loadings (0.2-0.5 wt %) in a PS matrix. Once light irradiation in the near-UV range was sent to PS/dye films, PS photooxidation likely occurred at the film surface with the formation of carboxylic compounds. These species locally promoted dye protonation, thus, yielding a clear change of the film emission from blue to green. This study opens the door to a wide range of light-responsive materials from easily accessible polymers, enabling the use of UV light as an effective trigger for smart materials and devices.
