Symmetric ethenyldithiophenes are important intermediates for synthesis of photochromic materials and organic conductors. When acetonitrile is used as a solvent, 3-methylthiophenylphosphonium salts form symmetric ethenyldithiophenes in the presence of a strong base (e.g., NaH, (t)BuOK) in moderate to high yields. This…

The effect of alcohols on the initial growth of the multibubble sonoluminescence (MBSL) intensity in aqueous solutions has been investigated. With increasing concentrations of the alcohols, the number of pulses required to grow the MBSL intensity to a steady state (N(crit)) increases (relative to that of water) initia…

Thermal stability, structure and aqueous chemical durability of glasses of nominal composition 60P2O5-40Fe2O3 (mol%) doped with up to 20% B2O3 have been investigated. B2O3 was substituted for either P2O5 or Fe2O3, or was added on a pro rata basis. No substantial melt volatilisation was detected, and refractory corrosi…

We report a study of excited-state lifetimes of the phosphorescent organometallic complex Ir(ppy)3 on ensemble and a single-molecule level. With decreasing concentration, an increasingly intense fast component of 3 ns lifetime appears next to the 1.1 mus phosphorescence. Experimental evidence suggests that strong two-…
