groups and the pyrene core. Electronic absroption spectra of the cationradicals generated in solution by the single electron oxidation of pyrenes reaffirmed the coupling of the aryl rings with the pyrene. The aryl groups at 1,3,6,8-positions completely inhibit the π-stacking of pyrene core in solution. Crystal structure of the cationradical salt of tetraphenyl shows charge delocalization between neutral

Woven nodes, serving as dynamiccrosslinks, afford a wovenpolymernetwork (WPN). The WPN exhibits comparable stiffness, strength, elastic recovery, and anti-fatigue properties to those of covalent polymernetworks (CPN), but also possesses decent mechanical adaptivity, self-healing, and reprocessability, resembling those of supramolecular polymernetworks (SPN).
Mesostructured organosilica films with strong blue fluorescence emission were synthesized by surfactant-templated sol-gel polycondensation using a 1,3,6,8-tetraphenylpyrene (TPPy)-containing organosilane precursor. The TPPy precursor, which contained four polymerizable silyl groups, was suitable for the preparation of mesostructured films with high TPPy content in the framework. The fluorescence quantum yields of the TPPy-bridged mesostructured organosilica films reached more than 0.7, despite the dense accumulation of TPPy units within the framework. Doping of the mesostructured films with fluorescence dyes enabled fine-tuning of the emission colors over a wide range of the visible spectrum Such mesostructured organosilica films, in which different chromophores can be distributed into the framework and mesopores, have significant potential for luminescence applications

The chronoamperometric response (I vs t) of three metallocene-doped metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) thin films (M-NU-1000, M = Fe, Ru, Os) in two different electrolytes (tetrabutylammonium hexafluorophosphate [TBAPF(6)] and tetrabutylammonium tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate [TBATFAB]) was utilized to elucidate the diffusion coefficients of electrons and ions (D-e and D-i, respectively) through the structure in response to an oxidizing applied bias. The application of a theoretical model for solid state voltammetry to the experimental data revealed that the diffusion of ions is the rate determining step at the three different time stages of the electrochemical transformation: an initial stage characterized by rapid electron diffusion along the crystal-solution boundary (stage A), a second stage that represents the diffusion of electrons and ions into the bulk of the MOF crystallite (stage B), and a final period of the conversion dominated only by the diffusion of ions (stage C). Remarkably, electron diffusion (D-e) increased in the order of Fe < Ru < Os using PF61- as the counteranion in all the stages of the voltammogram, demonstrating the strategy to modulate the rate of electron transport through the incorporation of rapidly self-exchanging molecular moieties into the MOF structure. The D-e values obtained with larger TFAB(1-) counteranion were generally in agreement with the previous trend but were on average lower than those obtained with PF61-. Similarly, the ion diffusion coefficient (D-i()) was generally higher for TFAB(1-) than for PF61- as the ions diffuse into the crystal bulk, due to the high degree of ion-pair association between PF61- and the metallocenium ion, resulting in a faster penetration of the weakly associated TFAB(1-) anion through the MOF pores. These structure-function relationships provide a foundation for the future design, control, and optimization of electron and ion transport properties in MOF thin films.
