Singlet oxygen was generated by the photosensitization of erythrosine. The lifetime of singlet oxygen and the quenching rate constant for singlet oxygen by NaN3 were measured by a thermal lensing method in MeOH-H2O mixed solvents. The reciprocal of the lifetime increased linearly with the increase of the H2O mole fraction. Semi-log plot of the quenching constant against the reciprocal of the solvent polarity exhibited a linear relation. The quenching of the singlet oxygen by NaN3 may proceed through a partial charge-transfer intermediate. The activation energy for the quenching reaction of N3- + 1O2 →[N3·1O2-] increased with the increase of the solvent polarity. The lifetime was also measured in MeOH-ethyleneglycol mixed solvents, and its relation with viscosity was obtained

Alkali lignin (AL) was used as a polyanion to form layer-by-layer self-assembled film with PDAC as a polycation. The effects of temperature and concentration on the adsorption characteristics of AL were investigated. Iodine was added into AL solutions to study the role of π-π interaction in self-assembly of AL and PDAC. Results show that the self-assembly of AL/PDAC is mainly driven by π-π interaction and electrostatic interaction. A higher temperature or a larger concentration can enhance the aggregation of lignin. I2 can form lignin–iodine charge–transfer complexes with AL to reduce the degree of aggregation of AL, so the adsorbed amount of AL decreases significantly with increasing iodine contents.

We have performed a systematic density functional study on the ground-state electronic structure and excited states of a representative D-σ-A dyad, i.e. EDT-TTF-Im-F4TCNQ π-radical, in vacuo and in different conventional solvents (toluene, THF, DMF and DMSO) by using some popular hybrid density functionals (B3LYP, M05, M05-2X, PBE0 and BMK). It has been shown that the M05 and B3LYP functionals perform the best in predicting the intramolecular charge-transfer (ICT) pertaining to both the ground state and excited states of the dyad. The amphoteric dyad is liable to solvent-promoted ICT from its EDT-TTF-Im donor (D) to F4TCNQ acceptor (A), adopting a charge-unseparated ground state D-A• in vacuo, a partially zwitterionic ground state [D-A]• in nonpolar toluene solvent, and a fully zwitterionic ground state D•+-A- in such polar solvents as THF, DMF and DMSO. Owing to its solvent-dependent chameleon ground state, excited states of the dyad in solvents also exhibit remarkable dependence on solvent polarity, as revealed by TDDFT calculations. Furthermore, cluster model calculations revealed that intermolecular charge-transfer readily occurs between the dyads, accounting for the observed zwitterionic charge state in solid state and solid-state semiconductivity.

Two novel 1,3,5-trisubstituted pyrazoline derivatives—1-acetyl-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5-(6-methoxy-2-naphthyl)-pyrazoline (2a) and 1-(4-nitrophenyl)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5-(6-methoxy-2-naphtyl)-pyrazoline (2b)—were synthesized and their structures were determined by single crystal X-ray crystallography. Both of the two crystals exhibit twisted structures due to the large dihedral angles between the pyrazolinyl ring and the aromatic ring at the 5-position (88.09° for 2a and 71.26° for 2b). The optical–physical properties of the two compounds were investigated. The fluorescent emission of 2b arises from the 1,3-disubstituted pyrazoline chromophores and exhibits a red shift in polar solvents and solid-state, which could be attributed to photo-induced intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) from N1 to C3 in the pyrazoline moiety and the intermolecular interactions within the crystal. The fluorescent emissions of 2a (λmax 358–364 nm) in solvents and solid-state both come from 6-methoxy-2-naphthyl chromophores, which are fairly insensitive to the solvent polarity.

The rate constants of reaction of triethylamine with ethyl bromide have been measured in 13 solvents at the temperatures of 293, 313, 333, and 373 K. The activation entropies in the individual solvents increase when going from nonpolar to dipolar aprotic and polar protic solvents, which is explained by dominant solvation of the basic triethylamine and by formation of highly ordered associates without solvent in the activated complex in nonpolar solvent media. No isokinetic relationship has been found between the activation entropy and activation enthalpy, which indicates different solvent effects on the two quantities. The activation enthalpy and entropy of the reaction investigated are close to those of the reaction of triethylamine with ethyl iodide. Three methods have been used to evaluate the effect of medium at all the temperatures, their success being decreased in the order: Pytela's method - Kamlet-Taft - Koppel-Palm. Irrespective of the temperature, all the methods indicate that the reaction is accelerated by the solvent polarity, the significance of other effects being reflected differently depending on the temperature and the correlation equation used. A complex evaluation involving also the interpretation of the entropy and enthalpy components by means of empiric solvent parameters has shown that the resulting Gibbs energy represents a superposition of different effects of solvents on the two thermodynamic quantities, the solvent effect upon the activation entropy being predominant at the higher temperatures.
