Improved Studies on the Synthesis,Characterization and Crystal Structure of 2,2-Dimethyl-5-nitro-5-nitroso-1,3-dioxane

The synthetic process for 2,2-dimethyl-5-nitro-5-nitroso-1,3-dioxane（DMNNDO） was improved by using tri（hydroxymethyl）nitromethane and acetone as starting materials through a ＂one-pot＂ method combined with alkaline hydrolysis and nitrosation reactions. The yield of DMNNDO was increased from 37% to 45%. The structure of DMNNDO was characterized by IR,^1H NMR,^13 C NMR,and elemental analysis.

The First Hyperpolanzability of 3,5-dimethyl-1-(4-nitrophenyl)-1, 2,4-triazole

Compact and high reliable blue coherent light sources are required for the optical data storage of high density, color image processing and optical measurements.One of the possible approaches is the direct frequency doubling of the near infrared semiconductor laser by optical waveguide techniques. So a material applied to the second harmonic generation (SHG) must not only have high molecular hyperpolarizability (β) but also have complete transparency at both the

Synthesis of Folate-Appended <i>β</i>-Cyclodextrin Using Phenanthroline as Linker for Cancer Targeting Drug Delivery

Here we have synthesized cancer targeting drug delivery system that contains β-cyclodextrin as a drug carrier and folic acid as a targeting ligand. Folic acid was selected as a cancer targeting ligand because folic acid receptors are highly expressed in a variety of tumor types. β-cyclodextrin and folic acid were connected through a linker [1,10-phenanthroline or 5-(hydroxymethyl) furfural]. β-cyclodextrin and folic acid were attached to the linker by formation of Schiffbase and ester, respectively. Our targeted synthetic products were confirmed by NMR, Mass and IR spectroscopy. We anticipate that our synthetic products can confer cancer cell-specific drug delivery as well as desired properties such as nanoparticle formation.

Improved stability of blue TADF organic electroluminescent diodes via OXD-7 based mixed host

Thermally activated delayed fluorescence(TADF)organic light-emitting diodes(OLEDs)have been demonstrated in applications such as displays and solid-state lightings.However,weak stability and ineffi-cient emission of blue TADF OLEDs are two key bottlenecks limiting the development of solution processable displays and white light sources.This work presents a solution-processed OLED using a blue-emitting TADF small molecule bis[4-(9,9-dimethyl-9,10-dihydroacridine)phenyl]sulfone(DMAC-DPS)as an emitter.We comparatively investigated the effects of single host poly(Nvinylcarbazole)(PVK)and a co-host of 60%PVK and 30%2,2′-(1,3-phenylene)-bis[5-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole](OXD-7)on the device performance(the last 10%is emitter DMAC-DPS).The co-host device shows lower turn-on voltage,similar maximum luminance,and much slower external quantum efficiency(EQE)rolloff.In other words,device stability improved by doping OXD-7 into PVK,and the device impedance simultaneously and significantly reduced from 8.6103 to 4.2103 W at 1000 Hz.Finally,the electroluminescent stability of the co-host device was significantly enhanced by adjusting the annealing temperature.
