TL;DR: The azo-hydrazone tautomerism of two pyridine-2,6-dione based Disperse Yellow dyes has been achieved by pH control and metal-ion complexation, respectively, which is evidenced by UV-visible spectra using pH-titration, (1)H NMR and X-ray single-crystal diffraction techniques for two dyes and one neutral dinuclear dye-metal complex.

TL;DR: The photophysical and electrochemical results demonstrate that compound 7 exhibits high electrochemical activity with a green fluorescence emission, and compounds 1, 2, and 6 show high luminescence quantum yields, and compound 8 exhibits excellent thermal stability.

TL;DR: A novel mesoporous nanosphere functionalized with 3-(aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES) and 2-(5-bromothiophen)imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline (5-Br-Tip) was synthesized and successfully applied to cell imaging in vitro based on the Eu(3+) luminescence.

TL;DR: Optical and electrochemical results demonstrate that the TPA-terminated bithiazole compound 2TPA2TZ has yellow fluorescence and reversible redox activity as well as extraordinarily high thermal stability.

TL;DR: In this article, a post-modification strategy has been used to extend the terminal aldehyde radical into either an imine, acetal or α,β-unsaturated cyanoacetic ester group.
