Maleimides serve as crucial components in various synthetic processes and are of significant interest to researchers in bioorganic chemistry and biotechnology. Although thermal reactions involving maleimides have been studied extensively, light-mediated reactions with maleimides remain relatively underutilized. This review focuses on understanding the behavior of maleimides in their excited state, particularly their role as synthetic scaffolds for excited-state reactions. Specific emphasis is placed on the diverse photoreactions involving maleimides and photophysical evaluation from our research group.more » « less

The study evaluates compatibility of stabilizers with dye doped liquid crystal (LC) scaffolds that are used in electronically dimmable materials. The photodegradation of the materials was investigated and suitable stabilizers were evaluated to slow the degradation process. Various types of benzotriazole-based stabilizers were evaluated for stabilizing the liquid crystals. Based on spin trapping experiments, radicals generated upon UV exposure is likely responsible for the degradation of the system. The radical generation is competitively inhibited by the addition of stabilizers.more » « less

null (Ed.)This review highlights the excited state characteristics of imines and processes that govern their photochemical and photophysical properties. This review examines the pathways for deactivation and types of photochemical reactions that originate from excited imines. This review also features recent strategies that are developed to circumvent the fundamental issues that have plagued the development of the aza Paternò–Büchi reaction.more » « less
