Abstract:
A new pyrene-based derivative bearing an azadiene group was synthesized as a ratiometric chemosensor for Hg(2+) in aqueous acetonitrile solution. The "off-on" type signaling behavior of the fluoroionophore is due to the metal ion induced conformational changes from the weak pyrene monomer emissions to strong pyrene excimer emission.

Gas Chromatography: Types of Detectors-II
987
In gas chromatography, different detectors are employed to meet specific analytical needs. These detectors are often categorized based on their detection mechanisms and the types of compounds they are best suited to analyze. Thermal Conductivity Detectors (TCD), Flame Ionization Detectors (FID), and Electron Capture Detectors (ECD) represent common categories, each with unique operating principles and applications. However, beyond these, several other detectors are designed for more specialized...

Aryldiazonium Salts to Azo Dyes: Diazo Coupling
3.5K
The reaction of weakly electrophilic aryldiazonium (also called arenediazonium) salts with highly activated aromatic compounds leads to the formation of products with an —N=N— link, called an azo linkage. This reaction, presented in Figure 1, is known as diazo coupling and occurs without the loss of the nitrogen atoms of the aryldiazonium salt. Highly activated aromatic compounds such as phenols or arylamines favor the diazo coupling reaction. The coupling generally occurs at the para...
