TL;DR: A carbonyl group was positioned between 1,8-naphthalimide and di-2-picolylamine (DPA) and played a key role of displaying fluorescence enhancements with heavy and transition metal (HTM) ions through increasing the oxidation potential of the fluorophore.

TL;DR: A significantly expanded library of materials, including dipeptides conjugated to carbazole, phenanthracene, anthracenes, pyrene and substituted naphthalenes are reported, including those containing a phenylalanine as either of the constituent amino acids are much more likely to lead to a gelator being formed.
Abstract: Functionalised dipeptides are a class of interesting and useful low molecular weight hydrogelators Here, we report a significantly expanded library of materials, including dipeptides conjugated to carbazole, phenanthracene, anthracene, pyrene and substituted naphthalenes We assess the effect of using two different gelation methods; a pH-switch and a solvent switch on the gelation behaviour and properties of the dipeptides Importantly, we investigate the relationship between the structure of these dipeptides and their ability to form gels From an analysis of the gelation ability of all these dipeptides, it is clear that those containing a phenylalanine as either of the constituent amino acids are much more likely to lead to a gelator being formed as opposed to using non-aromatic amino acids only

TL;DR: Experimental results showed the potential use of BCzPCz as a fluorescence probe and as two-photon absorption material and its potential use as a ICT complex formation in singlet excited state.
Abstract: A carbazole-based compound with intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) characteristics, 3,6-bis-((N-ethylcarbazole-3-)-propene-1-keto)-N-ethylcarbazole (BCzPCz) was synthesized by N-alkylation, acetylation and aldol condensation. BCzPCz was further confirmed by IR and 1 H NMR. The central N-ethylcarbazole was connected with two N-ethylcarbazole units through the propenone group in BCzPCz. N-ethylcarbazole and carbonyl groups were electron donors (D) and acceptors (A), respectively. The UV–vis absorption and fluorescence characteristics of BCzPCz were also investigated in different solvents. Solvatochromism was attributed to ICT complex formation in singlet excited state. Magnitude of the change in the dipole moment was 24.78 D according to Lippert-Mataga equation. Fluorescence of BCzPCz was significantly affected by pH and was quenched in acidic medium. Fluorescence quantum yield of BCzPCz was 0.516 in ethanol. Experimental results showed its potential use as a fluorescence probe and as two-photon absorption material.

TL;DR: A receptor is described that operates as a logic device with two input channels: the fluorescence signal depends on whether the molecule binds hydrogen ions, sodium ions or both and the input/output characteristics of this molecular device correspond to those of an AND gate.
Abstract: MOLECULES that perform logic operations are prerequisites for molecular information processing and computation1–11. We12,13 and others14–16 have previously reported receptor molecules that can be considered to perform simple logic operations by coupling ionic bonding or more complex molecular-recognition processes with photonic (fluorescence) signals: in these systems, chemical binding (the 'input') results in a change in fluorescence intensity (the 'output') from the receptor. Here we describe a receptor (molecule (1) in Fig. 1) that operates as a logic device with two input channels: the fluorescence signal depends on whether the molecule binds hydrogen ions, sodium ions or both. The input/output characteristics of this molecular device correspond to those of an AND gate.
