The progress of mankind is tightly connected with the development of  advanced information technologies. These include technologies of  transmission, processing and storage of information. However, success in  information technology is directly related to the creation and  improvement of novel molecular assemblies and advanced materials. The  task of this direction is to develop prototypes of molecular information  systems based on organic radicals, synthetic dyes, CISS effect  (chirality-induced spin selectivity), etc.

The development of effective sensors for detecting specific analytes in various media and organisms is a significant challenge in biochemistry and medicine. The preprogrammed molecular design allows to achieve selective binding and contrasting response in analyte detection. The use of novel structural compositions and interaction mechanisms between system elements opens up vast opportunities for advancing this field.

In recent years, there has been an increased focus on efficient, cost-effective, and energy-saving technologies. Among these, (micro)fluidic technologies and mechanochemistry have gained attention for their ability to combine economy, safety, and environmental friendliness with the reproducibility, high yields, and enhanced stereoselectivity of chemical reactions. Processes carried out under continuous flow conditions have demonstrated significant reductions in reaction time and improvements in productivity compared to traditional flask reactions, with some cases also showing improved stereoselectivity. This technology holds the potential to eventually replace conventional flask-based synthesis. Mechanochemistry offers a solution to limitations such as the solubility and stability of initial substances by using mechanical force to drive chemical reactions. This approach could lead to the discovery of new materials beyond the reach of traditional solution chemistry. Additionally, these technologies align with the principles of green chemistry and shows great promise in addressing critical energy challenges.
