https://www.selleckchem.com/products/rk-701.html Singlet fission (SF) materials hold the potential to increase the power conversion efficiency of solar cells by reducing the thermalization of high-energy excited states. The major hurdle in realizing this potential is the limited scope of SF-active materials with high fission efficiency, suitable energy levels, and sufficient chemical stability. Herein, using theoretical calculation and time-resolved spectroscopy, we developed a highly stable SF material based on dipyrrolonaphthyridinedione (DPND), a pyrrole-fused cross-conjugated skeleton with a distinctive adaptive aromaticity (dual aromaticity) character. The embedded pyrrole ring with 4n+2 π-electron features aromaticity in the ground state, while the dipole resonance of the amide bonds promotes a 4n π-electron Baird's aromaticity in the triplet state. Such an adaptive aromaticity renders the molecule efficient for the SF process [E(S1) ≥ 2E(T1)] without compromising its stability. Up to 173% triplet yield, strong blue-green light absorption, and suitable triplet energy of 1.2 eV, as well as excellent stability, make DPND a promising SF sensitizer toward practical applications.Coffee is one of the most consumed hot beverages worldwide and is highly regarded because of its stimulating effect despite having a pronounced bitterness. Even though numerous bitter ingredients have been identified, the detailed molecular basis for coffee's bitterness is not well understood except for caffeine, which activates five human bitter taste receptors. We elucidated the contribution of other bitter coffee constituents in addition to caffeine with functional calcium imaging experiments using mammalian cells expressing the cDNAs of human bitter taste receptors, sensory experiments, and in silico modeling approaches. We identified two human bitter taste receptors, TAS2R43 and TAS2R46, that responded to the bitter substance mozambioside with much higher sensitivity than to caffeine.
