Abstract Carbonyl complexes of chromium, molybdenum and tungsten of the type DAD M(CO)4 with DAD - diazadiene (R-N=CR′-CR′=NR) are shown by cyclic voltammetry to undergo electron transfer reactions to [DAD M(CO)4]+ and [DAD M(CO)4]-. The rate of subsequent chemical reactions with nucleophiles or by loss of ligands depend on the sol-vent, the metal and the ligands' electronic and steric properties. Chromium(+I) is more readily stabilized than Mo(+I) or W(-I) while the opposite is true for the stability of the anions formed. The dimerisation of a low-coordinate species DAD Mo(CO)3 from the reduction of DAD Mo(CO)3(CH3CN) is detected electrochemically. The stabilization of oxidation states +1 and -I is briefly discussed in view of the DAD ligand properties.

A molecular machine is an assembly of a definite number of molecular components designed to perform mechanical motions as a result of an appropriate external stimulation. Like their macroscopic counterparts, nanoscale machines need energy to operate. Energy can be supplied through (i) chemical reactions, (ii) electrochemical processes, and (iii) photoinduced processes. Although most molecular motors of the biological world are fueled by chemical reactions, for several reasons light is a very good choice to operate artificial molecular machines. Rotaxanes, owing to their peculiar architecture, are attractive candidates for the construction of artificial nanoscale machines. By adopting an incrementally staged design strategy, photoinduced electron-transfer processes have been engineered within rotaxane-type structures with the purpose of obtaining light-powered molecular machines. Such an approach is illustrated by describing the behavior of prototypes investigated in our laboratories.

<p>High signal-to-noise optical voltage indicators will enable simultaneous interrogation of membrane potential in large ensembles of neurons. However, design principles for voltage sensors with high sensitivity and brightness remain elusive, limiting the applicability of voltage imaging. In this paper, we use molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and density functional theory (DFT) calculations to guide the design of a bright and sensitive green-fluorescent voltage-sensitive fluorophore, or VoltageFluor (VF dye), that uses photoinduced electron transfer (PeT) as a voltage-sensing mechanism. MD simulations predict an 11% increase in sensitivity due to membrane orientation, while DFT calculations predict an increase in fluorescence quantum yield, but a decrease in sensitivity due to a decrease in rate of PeT. We confirm these predictions by synthesizing a new VF dye and demonstrating that it displays the expected improvements by doubling the brightness and retaining similar sensitivity to prior VF dyes. Combining theoretical predictions and experimental validation has resulted in the synthesis of the highest signal-to-noise green VF dye to date. We use this new voltage indicator to monitor the electrophysiological maturation of human embryonic stem cell-derived medium spiny neurons. </p>
