General description

4-(Dimethylamino)benzonitrile is extensively used in photophysical studies due to its ability to undergo intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) from the dimethylamino moiety to the cyanophenyl moiety on photo-excitation leading to the appearance of dual fluorescence.

Application

4-(Dimethylamino)benzonitrile can be used in the synthesis of 3,6-diphenyl-2,5-dihydro-pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole-1,4-dione derivatives.

Universal adhesives use a combined primer/bonding resin applied either in 2-step etch-and-rinse (2-E&R) or 1-step self-etch (1-SE) mode. This study investigated whether three universal adhesives would benefit from an extra bonding layer (EBL), essentially making them 3-step E&R (3-E&R) and

The excited state behavior of the six m,n-dicyano-N,N-dimethylanilines (mnDCDMA) and m,n-dicyano-(N-methyl-N-isopropyl)anilines (mnDCMIA) is discussed as a function of solvent polarity and temperature. The dicyano moiety in these electron donor (D)/acceptor (A) molecules has a considerably larger electron affinity than the
