Abstract:
An isomerized bithiazole imide (iBTzI) acceptor was effectively synthesized and functionalized via Suzuki or Stille coupling reactions. Compared with the isomerized bithiophene imide (iBTI) and bithiazole imide (BTzI), iBTzI has a more planar skeleton. Furthermore, the conjugated skeleton of iBTzI can be extended by hydrogen and chalcogen bonds. The donor-acceptor-donor-type (D-A-D-type) iBTzI derivatives display blue-to-red emission and enhanced photoluminescence quantum yields (ΦPLs) in solution, showing great promise in luminous materials.

Electrophilic Addition to Alkynes: Halogenation
Halogenation is another class of electrophilic addition reactions where a halogen molecule gets added across a π bond. In alkynes, the presence of two π bonds allows for the addition of two equivalents of halogens (bromine or chlorine). The addition of the first halogen molecule forms a trans-dihaloalkene as the major product and the cis isomer as the minor product. Subsequent addition of the second equivalent yields the tetrahalide.
