Photoirradiation wavelength dependence of cycloreversion quantum yields of diarylethenes.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The cycloreversion quantum yields of compounds 1b and 2b increased upon irradiation with light at shorter wavelengths. The irradiation wavelength dependence is ascribed to the energy barrier on the 2A potential energy surface in the excited electronic state.

Electrochemical and photochemical cyclization and cycloreversion of diarylethenes and diarylethene-capped sexithiophene wires.
A combined theoretical and experimental study was performed on diarylethenes and diarylethene-capped sexithiophenes aiming at an improved understanding of the electrochemical and photochemical ring-opening and ring-closing mechanisms. Theoretical calculations, based on DFT and TDDFT, suggested that the spatial distribution and the occupancy of the frontier orbitals determine and control the dia...
متن کاملThe effect of the formyl group position upon asymmetric isomeric diarylethenes bearing a naphthalene moiety
Three new isomeric asymmetric diarylethenes with a naphthyl moiety and a formyl group at the para, meta or ortho position of the terminal benzene ring were synthesized. Their photochromism, fluorescent-switch, and electrochemical properties were investigated. Among these diarylethenes, the one with a formyl group at the ortho position of benzene displayed the largest molar absorption coefficien...

An open and shut case: photoirradiation of the 9-mesityl-10-methylacridinium ion, which acts as a photoredox catalyst, evoked catalytic cycloreversion of the photochromic 1,2-dithienylethene (DTE) compounds with one order of magnitude enhancement in quantum yields. Mechanistic studies revealed that the back electron transfer and electron transfer from the neutral closed form of DTE compounds to...

Photoswitching and fluorescent properties of sulfone derivatives of 1,2-bis(2-alkyl-4-methyl-5-phenyl-3-thienyl)perfluorocyclopentene, 1-5, having methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, i-propyl, and i-butyl substituents at the reactive carbons (2- and 2'-positions) of the thiophene 1,1-dioxide rings were studied. Diarylethenes 1-5 underwent isomerization reactions between open-ring and closed-ring forms upo...

A modular assembly of water-soluble diarylethenes (DAEs), applicable as biomarkers for optical nanoscopy, is reported. Reversibly photoswitchable 1,2-bis(2-alkyl-6-phenyl-1-benzothiophene-1,1-dioxide-3-yl)perfluorocyclopentenes possessing a fluorescent "closed" form were decorated with one or two methoxy group(s) attached to the para-position(s) of phenyl ring(s) and two, four, or eight carboxy...
