However, the rarity of cycloarenes and heterocycloarenes limits the further exploitation of their applications. Herein, we designed and synthesized the first examples of boron and nitrogen (BN)-doped cycloarenes (BN-C1 and BN-C2) via one-pot intramolecular electrophilic borylation of imine-based macrocycles. BN-C2 adopts a bowl-shaped conformation, while BN-C1 possesses a planar geometry.

Accordingly, the solubility of BN-C2 was significantly improved by replacing two hexagons in BN-C1 with two N-pentagons, due to the creation of distortions away from planarity. Various experiments and theoretical calculations were carried out for heterocycloarenes BN-C1 and BN-C2, demonstrating that the incorporated BN bonds diminish the aromaticity of 1,2-azaborine units and their adjacent benzenoid rings but preserve the dominant aromatic properties of pristine kekulene. Importantly, when two additional electron-rich nitrogen atoms were introduced, the highest occupied molecular orbital energy level of BN-C2 was elaborately lifted compared with that of BN-C1. As a result, the energy-level alignment of BN-C2 with the work function of the anode and the perovskite layer was suitable. Therefore, for the first time, heterocycloarene (BN-C2) was explored as a hole-transporting layer in inverted perovskite solar cell devices, in which the power conversion Investigation of molecular structure and solvent/temperature effect on tautomerism in (E)-4,6-dibromo-3-methoxy-2-[(p-tolylimino)methyl]phenol, a new thermochromic Schiff base, by using XRD, FT-IR, UV-vis, NMR and DFT methods.Aircraft Maintenance, Samsun, Turkey. Electronic address: The molecular structure and the solvent/temperature effect on the tautomerism in a new Schiff base, (E)-4,6-dibromo-3-methoxy-2-[(p-tolylimino)methyl]phenol, were investigated using spectroscopic (NMR, UV-vis, FT-IR), crystallographic (XRD), computational (DFT and TD-DFT) methods and harmonic oscillator model of aromaticity (HOMA).

The XRD, DFT and FT-IR results show that the compound exists in the phenol-imine form in the solid state. HOMA indices support the aromatic structure of the compound. DFT calculations were performed to understand proton transfer process and relatively close values were obtained for the energies of tautomers. UV-vis studies prove the solvent dependence of the tautomerism in the compound by revealing the existence of both phenol-imine and keto-amine forms in polar solvents and only the phenol-imine form in apolar solvent. The TD-DFT results for the electronic transitions lead to the same conclusion as the absorption spectra. 1H NMR and 13C NMR studies at room and low (-60 °C) temperatures indicate that the tautomeric equilibrium occurs rapidly in the compound. Therefore, it is difficult to observe two tautomers.

However, the presence of tautomeric structures is clearly seen in acetone‑d6, alternatively underlying the solvent and temperature dependence of tautomerism in the title Dependence of the Substituent Effect on Solvent Properties.The influence of a solvent on the substituent effect (SE) in 1,4-disubstituted derivatives of benzene (BEN), cyclohexa-1,3-diene (CHD), and bicyclo[2]octane (BCO) is studied by the use of polarizable continuum model method. In Applications of 6-butyl-n-hydroxynaphthimide trifluoromethanesulfonic acid in Cross-Coupling Reactions X-R-Y systems for the functional group Y (NO2, COOH, OH, and NH2), the following substituents X have been chosen: NO2, CHO, H, OH, and NH2. The substituent effect is characterized by the charge of the substituent active region (cSAR(X)), substituent effect stabilization energy (SESE), and substituent constants σ or F descriptors, the functional groups by cSAR(Y), whereas π-electron delocalization of transmitting moieties (BEN and CHD) is characterized by a geometry-based index, harmonic oscillator model of aromaticity. All computations were carried out by means of B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) method. An application of quantum chemistry SE models (cSAR and SESE) allows to compare the SE in water solutions and in the gas phase. Results of performed analyses indicate an enhancement of the SE by water.

The obtained Hammett-type relationships document different nature of interactions between Y and X in aromatic and olefinic systems (a coexistence of resonance and inductive effects) than in saturated ones (only the inductive effect). 6-butyl-n-hydroxynaphthimide trifluoromethanesulfonic acid as a Precursor for Naphthalimide Derivatives of electric permittivity clearly enhances communications between X and Y for BEN and CHD A Molecular Precursor to Phosphaethyne and Its Application in Synthesis of the Aromatic 1,2,3,4-Phosphatriazolate Anion.Dibenzo-7-phosphanorbornadiene Ph3PC(H)PA (1, A = C14H10, anthracene) is reported here as a molecular precursor to phosphaethyne (HC≡P), produced together with anthracene and triphenylphosphine.
