Marine aerosol constitutes one of the most important natural aerosol systems at the global level and comprises both organic and inorganic components of primary and secondary origin. This work presents new results on organic marine aerosol properties and its link with oceanic biological productivity. Laboratory experiments have shown that sea-spray aerosol originating from highly biologically ac...

Amphiphilic anthracene derivatives showed solvent-polarity-dependent fluorescence. Monomer emission and aggregation-induced emission (AIE) were observed in polar and non-polar organic solvents, respectively. AIE became predominant in aqueous solution in the case of hexafluorophosphate as a counter anion.

Nitrogen-containing molecules are key scaffolds that are widely applied in organic synthesis as precursors of highly functionalized materials, and are also investigated for their biological activities. This Special Issue collects seven innovative contributions which expand our knowledge of the chemistry of nitro compounds, amines, diazonium salts, and peptides, and that provide a good overview ...

Supramolecular hydrogels can spontaneously undergo syneresis through fibre–fibre interactions and expel significant amounts of water upon aging. In this process, the hydrophobicity fibres which regulates 3D-rearrangement self-assembled structures during is important. Here, we show that control hydrophobic microenvironment gels by incorporating organic salts into co-assembled gel thereby enablin...
