    Notes: The synthesis of a new polar amphiphilic derivative of indandione-1,3 pyridinium betaine (IPB) with different lengths of the aliphatic tail, containing 11 (C11IPB) and 17 (C17IPB) carbon atoms respectively, is described. The electronic structure (charge distribution, energy spectra, dipole moments in ground and excited states) of the IPB molecule has been calculated in the framework of the MO CNDO methods. Studies of compression π-A isotherms of these compounds show that C17IPB forms two stable phases of monolayer on the water surface, one in the 10-30 mN m-1 and the other in the 35-50 nM m-1 surface pressure region. The corresponding areas A0 per molecule are 37 and 33 Å2 respectively. Techniques for the preparation of Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) multilayers of C17IPB in the high-pressure region (π = 40 mN m-1) on glass, quartz or sapphire substrates are described. C17IPB forms LB multilayer films of Z-type configuration with oriented dipole moments. Ellipsometric data, luminescence spectra and results of preliminary studies of second-harmonic generation in these LB films are presented.

    Notes: The molecular structure and optical properties of a monolayer at the air/water interface of novel amphiphilic derivatives of indandione-1,3 pyridinium betaine (IPB) with different lengths of the aliphatic tail, namely C1lIPB and C17IPB, have been studied using optical absorption techniques and computer simulation approaches.The compression π-A isotherm of the C17IPB monolayer and computer simulation of its molecular structure show that there may exist two energetically stable molecular configurations, one with antiparallel orientation of the dipole moments of the C17IP ‘heads’ in the low-pressure region at π = 5-32 mN m-1 and the second (after a distinct phase transition at π = 33 mN m-1) with parallel orientation of the dipoles, with different tilt angles and areas per molecule. For C11IPB only the first structural phase is observable.The compression-induced changes in spectral characteristics of the two structural phases go in diametrically opposite directions. In the low-pressure phase compression induces a red shift and an increase in intensity of the S1 absorption band, while in the high pressure phase a blue shift and a decrease in the intensity of this band are observed. These spectral changes correlate reproducibly with the compression π-A isotherms. Measurements of absorption dichroism confirm the change in the tilt angle at the phase transition pressure. The compression-induced spectral changes have been substantiated by the results of quantum chemical calculations.

    Notes: Linear dichroism and second-harmonic generation (SHG) have been measured in Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) multilayers of Z-type structure of amphiphilic indandione-1,3 pyridinium betaine (IPB) with an aliphatic tail containing 17 carbon atoms (C17IPB). The dichroic ratio As/Ap of electronic absorption of s- and p-polarised light and the SHG intensity show that the ‘heads’ of C17IPB molecules are predominantly oriented along the deposition direction of monolayers on a quartz substrate. Orientation parameters and mean statistical azimuthal and tilt angles are evaluated as a function of the number of monolayers. The SHG efficiency has been measured in C17IPB monolayers on a water surface as a function of surface pressure. The effective hyperpolarisability β of the IPB molecule has been determined experimentally in a chloroform solution by the hyper-Rayleigh-scattering method. The obtained value of β = (138 ± 16) × 10-30 esu is in good agreement with theoretical estimates.
