Hypoxia is a parameter related to many diseases. Ratiometric hypoxia probes often rely on a
combination of an O2‐insensitive fluorophore and an O2‐sensitive phosphor in a polymer …

The sunlight-driven reduction of CO2 into carbonaceous fuels can lower the atmospheric
CO2 concentration and provide renewable energy simultaneously, attracting scientists to …

This Feature Article highlights the role of spatial confinement in controlling the fundamental
behavior of molecules. Select examples illustrate the value of using space as a tool to …

When incorporated into π-conjugated systems, phosphorus-based heterocycles have
gained significant attention due to their unique chemical and physical properties. However …

Quantum tunneling, a phenomenon that allows particles to pass through potential barriers,
can play a critical role in energy transfer processes. Here, we demonstrate that the proper …

The three possible emissive states of pyrene and its aggregates can be effectively deployed
by engineering the molecular structures through the synthesis of three different donor …

Three novel bismuth–organic compounds, with the general formula [Bi2 (HPDC) 2 (PDC)
2]·(arene)· 2H2O (H2PDC= 2, 6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid; arene= pyrene, naphthalene, and …

Thiol compounds exist widely on the Earth and have certain significance in the fields of the
circulation of the sulfur element and industrial production. However, the odor and biological …

Directing excited-state behavior of photoactive molecules without covalent modification has
been more frequently achieved through inclusion within cavitands than by any other …

Unlike coumarins, the sulfur analogues, 2-thioxo-coumarins (TCs) have not attracted
attention. Given the large energy gap between S 2 and S 1 and high spin–orbit coupling …
