Carboxylic acid isomer-directed synthesis of CdS nanocluster isomers

Selective synthesis of nanocluster (NC) isomers with tailored structures holds significant importance for enhancing their applications. Here, we develop an effective strategy for the selective synthesis of CdS NC isomers through the judicious choice of a p ...

Investigations about the Chemistry of Tetraarylethene- and Iridium-Based Luminophores

Anastasia Gitlina

The work described in this thesis focuses on two classes of luminophores: tetraarylethene-based polymers and Ir(III) complexes with orthometalated ligands. Tetraarylethene-based polymers show aggregation-induced emission (AIE) and they are of interest for ...

The acid-mediated isomerization of iridium(iii) complexes with cyclometalated NHC ligands: kinetic vs. thermodynamic control

Kay Severin, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Anastasia Gitlina

The isomerization of iridium(III) complexes with metalated N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands was studied. The fac isomers of complexes with 1-phenyl-3-methylbenzimidazolin-2-ylidene or 1-phenyl-3-benzylbenzimidazolin-2-ylidene ligands are transformed cl ...

Mechanistic Insight into Supramolecular Polymerization in Water Tunable by Molecular Geometry

Lukas Pfeifer

Supramolecular self-assembly in water based on non-covalent bonding is attracting major attention due to the potential of hydrogels and aqueous polymers in biomedical applications. Although supramolecular polymerization in organic solvents is well establis ...

Acid-base-induced fac → mer isomerization of luminescent iridium(iii) complexes

Kay Severin, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Albert Ruggi, Anastasia Gitlina, Carolina Luciana Plaice

Luminescent Ir(C^N)3 complexes (C^N = cyclometalated arylpyridine ligand) exist in the form of two stable isomers with distinct photophysical and electrochemical properties: fac and mer. Herein, we show that fac-Ir(C^N)3 complexes can be converted into the ...

Identification of Mobility-Resolved N-Glycan Isomers

Thomas Rizzo, Ahmed Ben Faleh, Stephan Warnke, Priyanka Bansal, Robert Paul Pellegrinelli

Glycan analysis has evolved considerably during the last decade. The advent of high-resolution ion-mobility spectrometry has enabled the separation of isomers with only the slightest of structural differences. However, the ability to separate such species ...

Arene-ruthenium(II) complexes with pyrazole-based ligands bearing a pyridine moiety: Synthesis, structure, DFT calculations, and cytotoxicity

Paul Joseph Dyson, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Mouna Hadiji

Two pyrazole-based ligands bearing a pyridine moiety, 3-methyl-1-(pyridin-2-yl)-5-pyrazolone (HLpy), and 3methyl-1-(pyridin-2-yl)-4-trifluoroacetyl-5-pyrazolone (HQpy,CF3), were prepared and fully characterized in the solid-state and the tautomerism of bot ...

Is a Single Conformer Sufficient to Describe the Reorganization Energy of Amorphous Organic Transport Materials?

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Iwona Swiderska, Kun-Han Lin, Raimon Fabregat I De Aguilar-Amat, Jacob Terence Blaskovits, Hélène Wu

The reorganization energy (lambda), which quantifies the structural rearrangement of a molecule when accommodating a charge, is a key parameter in the evaluation of charge mobility in molecular solids. However, it is unclear how lambda is influenced by con ...

Photoisomerization of Linear and Stacked Isomers of a Charged Styryl Dye: A Tandem Ion Mobility Study

Eduardo Carrascosa Casado

The photoisomerization behavior of styryl 9M, a common dye used in material sciences, is investigated using tandem ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) coupled with laser spectroscopy. Styryl 9M has two alkene linkages, potentially allowing for four geometric i ...
