Material design for piezochromic luminescence: hydrogen-bond-directed assemblies of a pyrene derivative.
TL;DR: Amide-substituted tetraphenylpyrene C6TPPy, composed of a planar fluorescent core and multiple hydrogen-binding sites, displays a remarkable change and restoration of its luminescence color by pressing with a spatula and heating, respectively.
Book ChapterDOI
Nucleobase-containing gelators.
Koji Araki,Isao Yoshikawa +1 more
TL;DR: The recent development of nucleobase-containing low molecular mass gelators in aqueous and organic systems is reviewed, and the self-assemblies of nucleo-containing small molecules and their arrangement within the gel are discussed from the molecular, mesoscopic and macroscopic level in regard to becoming a macroscale three-dimensional network.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photochromism of 2-(Phenylazo)imidazoles
TL;DR: A preliminary study suggested that metal ions can modulate the absorption spectrum of Pai-Me without a loss of the gross photochromic behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI
Piezochromic luminescence of amide and ester derivatives of tetraphenylpyrene—role of amide hydrogen bonds in sensitive piezochromic response
TL;DR: A series of amide and ester derivatives of 1,3,6,8-tetraphenylpyrene (TPPy) were prepared, and their solid-state luminescence, molecular packing, and piezochromic responses were studied in order to improve and refine the design concept of piezochemic luminescent materials based on the use of multiple hydrogen bonds and close packing of disk-shaped aromatic cores as mentioned in this paper.
