Room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP)-based sensors have distinctive advantages over the fluorescence counterparts, such as larger Stokes shifts and longer lifetimes. Unfortunately, almost all RTP sensors are operated on quenching-based mechanisms given the sensitive nature of the emissive triplet state. Here we report a type of thioether RTP molecules that shows RTP “turn-on” when volatile acid vapors such as HCl are in contact. To elucidate the underlying mechanism, model thioethers containing different donor/acceptor combinations are investigated via fluorescence spectroscopy and theoretical calculations aided by molecular coordinates obtained from single-crystal X-ray diffraction. It is revealed that a charge-transfer character in the phosphorescence state is crucial. The “turn-on” design concept may significantly broaden the sensing application scope for organic RTP molecules.

A new type of ligand-free Ni-nanoparticles supported on rGO (size distribution average d = 9 ± 3 nm) was prepared and fully characterized via morphological (Fe-SEM), structural (P-XRD, HR-TEM), and spectroscopic (ICP-EOS, XPS) analysis tools. The metal composite was effectively employed in the unprecedented heterogeneously Ni-assisted cross-coupling reaction of aryl/vinyl iodides and thiocarboxylates. A range of sulfur-containing aryl as well as vinyl derivatives (15 examples) was achieved in high yields (up to 82%), under mild reaction conditions, and with wide functional group tolerance.

An efficient electrochemical synthesis approach of various unsymmetrical thioethers and arylboronates has been developed. Bench stable arylazo sulfones were used as radical precursors for carbon-heteroatom bond formation under electrochemical conditions. Moreover, the scalability of this approach was evaluated by performing the electrochemical thiolation and borylation of arylazo sulfones with thiols and B2pin2 on a gram scale. This protocol not only avoided the use of stoichiometric oxidants, metal catalysts, activating agents and even added bases, but also exhibited favorable functional group tolerance. (Figure presented.).
