Abstract: Abstract 1,8-bis-(dimethylamino)-naphthalene, the first ever reported proton sponge, has been snatching much attention with its spectacular proton affinity (PA) for decades. This manuscript discusses the affinities of DMAN towards s-block metal ions Li+, Na+, K+,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/2050-6120/ac8d4c
Abstract: This article reviews the use of the 6-acetyl-2-(dimethylamino)naphthalene (ACDAN) fluorophore to study dipolar relaxation in cells, tissues, and biomimetic systems. As the most hydrophilic member of the 6-acyl-2-(dimethylamino)naphthalene series, ACDAN markedly partitions to aqueous environments.… read more here.
