An efficient double C-N bond formation sequence to prepare highly substituted quinazolines utilizing benzimidates and dioxazolones under the catalytic redox-neutral [Cp*RhCl2]2/AgBF4 system, where dioxazolones could work as an internal oxidant to maintain the catalytic cycle, is reported. N-Unsubstituted imine not only acts as a directing group but also functions as a nucleophile in postcoupling cyclization, and dioxazolone acts as a coupling partner for access to heterocycle.
A colorimetric and ratiometric fluorescent probe PMN–TPP for imaging mitochondrial ClO− was prepared. The probe performed well in detecting ClO− in the mitochondria of living RAW264.7 macrophage cells and a living nude mouse.
The simultaneous achievement of multiple‐resonance thermally activated delayed fluorescence (MR‐TADF) materials with strong narrowband emission and efficient reverse intersystem crossing (RISC) process can further promote the advancement of organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs). Herein, a new strategy is proposed to achieve two π‐extended MR‐TADF emitters (NBO and NBNP) peaking at 487 and 500 nm via fusing conjugated high‐triplet‐energy units (carbazole, dibenzofuran) into boron‐nitrogen (B/N) framework, aiming to increase charge transfer delocalization of the B/N skeleton and minimize singlet‐triplet energy gap (∆EST). This strategy endows the two emitters with full width at half maximum of 27 and 29 nm, and high photoluminescence efficiencies above 90% in doped films, respectively. Additionally, considerable rate constants of RISC are obtained due to the small ∆EST (0.12 and 0.09 eV) and large spin‐orbital coupling values. Consequently, the OLEDs based on NBO and NBNP show the maximum external electroluminescence quantum efficiency of up to 26.1% and 28.0%, respectively, accompanied by low‐efficiency roll‐off. These results provide a feasible design strategy to construct efficient MR‐TADF materials for OLEDs with suppressed efficiency roll‐off.
The number of publications and the number of citations received have become the most common indicators of scholarly success. In this context, scientific writing increasingly plays an important role in scholars' scientific careers. To understand the relationship between scientific writing and scientific impact, this paper selected 12 variables of linguistic complexity as a proxy for depicting scientific writing.We then analyzed these features from 36,400 full-text Biology articles and 1,797 fulltext Psychology articles. These features were compared to the scientific impact of articles, grouped into high, medium, and low categories. The results suggested no practical significant relationship between linguistic complexity and citation strata in either discipline. This suggests that textual complexity plays little role in scientific impact in our data sets.
In this study, a turn-on coumarin-based fluorescent probe, 7-hydroxy-6-[(2-hydroxy-naphthalen-1-ylmethylene)-amino]-4-methyl-chroman-2-one (CN), was developed for detecting Al(3+) in aqueous systems. The binding ratio of CN-Al(3+) complexes was determined from the Job plot and ESI-MS data to be 1 : 1. The binding constant (Ka) of Al(3+) binding to CN was calculated to be 9.55 × 10(4) M(-1) from a Benesi-Hildebrand plot and the detection limit was evaluated to be as low as 0.10 μM (LOD = 3σ/slope). CN could be used as an effective fluorescent probe for detecting Al(3+) in living HeLa cells. Moreover, CN could also be applied in the in vivo detection of Al(3+) in zebrafish.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
