A fully screen-printed electrode chip was fabricated for glucose detection. The utility of the screen-printed electrode chip based on a Japanese paper was demonstrated through the determination of glucose using the reaction of glucose oxidase with tetrathiafulvalene. The calibration curve showed good linearity in the concentration range 10 to 100 mM, with a slope of 0.055 μA mM−1. The paper-based electrode chip is potentially applicable for point-of-care monitoring because it is easy to use, inexpensive, and readily disposable.

Upon oxidation of the title heterocycles with dimethylamino groups, elemental sulfur is extruded to form dicationic dyes, which regenerate the heterocycles by the reaction with Na2S. The electrolysis of the heterocycles induces a drastic change in UV–vis spectrum exhibiting several isosbestic points. The bay-region substituents enhance configurational stability, so the optically pure heterocycle can be obtained in terms of helicity of one-handedness, and its chromism is accompanied by a large chiroptical response as detected by CD spectroscopy.

Octafluorobiphenyl-2,2′-diylbis(diarylmethylium) dye 2a2+ prepared from 1,2-dibromotetrafluorobenzene is interconvertible with colorless dihydrophenanthrene donor 1a. By the SNAr reactions of 1a with acetylides, π-extended analogues 1b and 1c were obtained. Their electrochromic behavior is accompanied by a drastic absorption change not only in the visible but also UV region, because the torsion angle of the biaryl unit is modified upon redox reactions.

Electrochemical oxidation of silver shells on gold nanorods was examined using in situ spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The oxidation, in a phosphate buffer solution, was suppressed because of the formation of Ag3PO4. In contrast, oxidation in a KCl solution occurred at the corners of the nanorods and proceeded until giving gold nanorods without silver shells. After the 10-s electrolysis, nanoparticles with different shapes were found on the electrode. The inhomogeneous oxidation was due to rapid oxidation of the silver shells and occasional contact of the nanorods with the electrode surfaces.

Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) was coated on gold nanorods (NRs) without forming aggregates. The PNIPAM-coated NRs (PNIPAM-NRs) formed aggregates at higher temperature than the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of the PNIPAM layers. The aggregation showed reversible spectroscopic responses under repeated temperature cycles. When near infrared (near-IR) light irradiated a PNIPAM-NR solution, the temperature raise up, and formed aggregates that showed broad and weak surface plasmon bands. The spectroscopic responses in near-IR region work as a negative feedback for heating a photoirradiated nanorod solution. The feedback offers spontaneous temperature control of the photoirradiated solution at LCST of PNIPAM.

Copper(I)–dioxygen reactivity studies utilizing new binucleating ligands are described. When catalytic quantities of either CuI or CuII salts were introduced to LH2, which is a dinucleating ligand with two tridentate donors connected via a methylene group at a bis(2-pyridyl)methane junction, dioxygen addition caused complete oxygenation to give bis(2-pyridyl)ketone product L=O. Isolated dicopper(I) complex [CuI2(LH2)]2+ (1) also reacted with excess O2 to give L=O. Additional observations were consistent with a mechanism that does not involve “oxygen-activation” in this process. Ketone hydration and gem-diol(ate) copper(II)-coordination occurred by addition of copper(II)–perchlorate to L=O, giving [CuII2{L(OH)(O−)}Cu2II(−OClO3)]2+ (4), with a bridging alkoxide moiety (X-ray). Oxygenation of [CuI2(L=O)(CH3CN)2]2+ (2) (2/O2 = 0.5, i.e., Cu/O2 = 4:1 manometry), gave [CuII2{L(O−)2}(−OClO3)]+ (5), where both oxygen atoms of the doubly deprotonated gem-diolate bind separate copper(II) ions; mass spectrometric data showed that one of the two oxygen atoms of the gem-diolate L(O−)2 came from O2. An oxo–dicopper(II) species is suggested as an important intermediate, which is supported by the observation that reaction of 2 with NO or iodosylbenzene also produced 5 in high yields. Complexes 4 and 5 are acid–base conjugate pairs and can be readily interconverted using Et3N or HClO4(aq) reagents.

The novel silica nanotubes with flower-like morphology and hexagonal outer surface morphology were fabricated via a simple ZnS nanowires templates-assisted CVD method. The as-synthesized nanotubes exhibited strong visible photoluminescence at 615 nm and indicated that the method was useful to produce silica nanotubes.

By combination of 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition and N–O single bond insertion, tandem synthesis of dibenzo[1,4]oxazepino[4,5-a]quinolines was accomplished. Reaction of quinoline N-oxides with arynes afforded 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)quinolines and 7-membered pentacyclic oxazepino[4,5-a]quinolines.

Thiophene based block copolymers are synthesized by addition of bromothiophene and Knochel-Hauser base (TMPMgCl·LiCl). Nickel-catalyzed deprotonative C–H coupling polycondensation of 3-substituted-thiophenes proceeds to give head-to-tail-type poly(3-substituted thiophen-2,5-diyl) bearing nickel at the polymer end. Block copolymers of thiophene derivatives are obtained by successive addition of 2-bromo-3-alkylthiophene and magnesium amide to a living polythiophene end. The use of nickel catalyst bearing an o-tolyl group gives the tolyl-group-terminated thiophene diblock copolymers in highly efficiently. Triblock copolymer is also synthesized by the iterative addition of bromothiophene and TMPMgCl·LiCl.

We have investigated the spreading process of oil-in-water emulsions containing oleic acid droplets on flat and rough fractal agar gel surfaces. Significant spreading inhibition owing to local condensation of oil droplets is observed on flat agar gel surfaces. On the other hand, such inhibition is not observed on the fractal gel surfaces for any of the emulsions. The rough structure of the gel surfaces is an important factor of spreading dynamics of emulsions on surfaces.

Arynes, generated in situ from o-(trimethylsilyl)aryl triflates by treatment with a fluoride, have been shown to react efficiently with various alkoxyphosphines via a mechanism similar to the Michaelis–Arbuzov reaction. Diverse aromatic oxophosphorus compounds, including derivatives with an ortho-ester function, have become easily available from a common aryne precursor by this method.

Dibenzo[b,g]-fused and dithieno[b,g]-fused BODIPY derivatives were synthesized, and the electronic impacts of the introducing dibenzo- and dithieno-fused structures at both of the b and g bonds in the BODIPY skeleton were investigated. Electrochemical and photophysical measurements demonstrated that these structural modifications effectively enhance the electron accepting ability of the BODIPY skeleton leading to the red-shifted absorption.

[2]Rotaxanes constructed with an ethereal end-capped axle and a dibenzo-24-crown-8 wheel were synthesized from pseudorotaxanes bearing an alcoholic terminus and diaryldiazomethanes using diphenyl phosphate as a catalyst. The reaction proceeded at room temperature in nonpolar solvents within several hours. The [2]rotaxanes thus obtained behaved as ammonium salts derived from a very strong base such as DBU. Thus, the amine form of the [2]rotaxane reacted with a weak acid, CO2–H2O, to give a hydrogencarbonate salt of the [2]rotaxane, which turned back to the amine form after drying followed by evacuation.

The improved Scholl reaction allows for the direct cyclization of anthracene oligomers to give bisanthene, teranthene, and quateranthene. Furthermore, a variety of π-expanded bisanthenes are obtained by the Diels–Alder cycloaddition of bisanthene with several arynes. These reactions would allow us to synthesize various size- and shape-controlled polyperiacenes.

High-molecular-weight head-to-tail-type regioregular polythiophenes are synthesized by [CpNiCl(SIPr)]-catalyzed dehydrobrominative polycondensation. Polycondensation of 2-bromo-3-hexylthiophene at the C–H bond proceeds with an equimolar amount of TMPMgCl·LiCl and a catalytic amount of [CpNiCl(SIPr)] to afford the regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene) (HT-P3HT) with up to Mw = 815000. A self-standing HT-P3HT film is obtained with the regioregular HT-P3HT of Mw = 414000, while the attempted formation of the corresponding film with lower-molecular-weight HT-P3HT (Mw = 38000) is unsuccessful.

We prepared dimethyldihydropyrene (DHP) derivative 2 which possesses two ferrocenyl groups at the 4 and 9 positions through ethynylene linkers. 2 showed intense electronic communication between the two ferrocenyl groups, which is promoted by the highly developed π-orbital of the diethynylDHP moiety.
