Study on the Synthesis and Application of a Material 1-2-Methyl-5-Phenyl-3-Thienyl-2-2-Methyl-5-(3-Aldehyde-4-Methoxy)-3-Thienyl Perfluorocyclopentene

摘要

A novel photochromic diarylethene was successfully synthesized, which is named 1-[2-methyl-5-phenyl-3-thienyl]-2-[2-methyl-5-(3-aldehyde-4-methoxy)-3-thienyl] perfluorocyclopentene. The compound showed good photochromic behavior. Upon irradiated with UV/vis lights, the color of the compound could be changed between colorless and blue, accompanied by a fluorescence switch between the open-ring isomer and closed-ring isomer.
