Light‐induced transitions between the trans and cis isomer of triazatriangulenium‐based azobenzene derivatives on Au(111) surfaces were observed directly by scanning tunneling microscopy, allowing atomic‐scale studies of the photoisomerization kinetics. Although the azobenzene units in these adlayers are free‐standing and spaced at uniform distances of 1.26 nm, their photoswitching depends on the isomeric state of the surrounding molecules and, specifically, is accelerated by neighboring cis isomers. These collective effects are supported by ab initio calculations indicating that the electronic excitation preferably localizes on the n–π* state of trans isomers with neighboring cis azobenzenes. 相似文献

Coordination‐Driven Macrocyclization for Locking of Photo‐ and Thermal cis→trans Isomerization of Azobenzene 下载免费PDF全文

Both trans and cis isomers of azobenzene‐linked bis‐terpyridine ligand L1 were incorporated in rigid macrocycles linked by FeII(tpy)2 (tpy: terpyridine) units. The complex of the longer trans‐ L1 is dinuclear [(trans‐ L1 )2 ? FeII2], whereas the complex of the shorter cis‐ L1 is mononuclear [cis‐ L1? FeII]. The complex cis‐ L1? FeII was not only thermally stable but also photochemically inactive. These results indicate a perfectly locked state of cis‐azobenzene. The stable macrocyclic structure of cis‐ L1? FeII causes locking of the isomerization. To the best of our knowledge, this is first example of dual locking of photo‐ and thermal isomerization of cis‐azobenzene. 相似文献

Azobenzene derivatives modified with dithiolato‐bipyridine platinum(II) complexes were synthesized, revealing their highly extended photoresponses to the long wavelength region as well as unique photocontrollable tristability. The absorptions of trans‐ 1 and trans‐ 2 with one azobenzene group on the dithiolene and bipyridine ligands, respectively, cover the range from 300 to 700 nm. These absorptions are ascribed, by means of time‐dependent (TD)DFT calculations, to transitions from dithiolene(π) to bipyridine(π*), namely, interligand charge transfer (CT), π–π*, and n–π* transitions of the azobenzene unit, and π–π* transitions of the bipyridine ligand. In addition, only trans‐ 1 shows distinctive electronic bands, assignable to transitions from the dithiolene(π) to azobenzene(π*), defined as intraligand CT. Complex 1 shows photoisomerization behavior opposite to that of azobenzene: trans‐to‐cis and cis‐to‐trans conversions proceed with 405 and 312 nm irradiation, which correspond to excitation with the intraligand CT, and π–π* bands of the azobenzene and bipyridine units, respectively. In contrast, complex 2 shows photoisomerization similar to that of azobenzene: trans‐to‐cis and cis‐to‐trans transformations occur with 365 and 405 nm irradiation, respectively. Irradiation at 578 nm, corresponding to excitation of the interligand CT transitions, results in cis‐to‐trans conversion of both 1 and 2 , which is the longest wavelength ever reported to effect the photoisomerization of the azobenzene group. The absorption and photochromism of 4 , which has azobenzene groups on both the dithiolato and bipyridine ligands, have characteristics quite similar to those of 1 and 2 , which furnishes 4 with photocontrollable tristability in a single molecule using light at 365, 405, and 578 nm. We also clarified that 1 and 2 have high photoisomerization efficiencies, and good thermal stability of the cis forms. Complexes 3 and 5 have almost the identical photoresponse to those of their positional isomers, complexes 2 and 4 . 相似文献

Ultrathin molecular assemblies of new ionene polysoaps bearing azobenzene units in the main chain and anionic polyelectrolytes have been prepared upon electrostatic layer-by-layer adsorption on charged substrates. Ionenes could be adsorbed in the trans- and cis-rich state of their azobenzene units. Use of cis-rich polymer was found to be advantageous because up to three times more material could be adsorbed per dipping cycle as from the solution of the trans polymer. Alternate irradiation with UV (<370 nm) and visible (>450 nm) light allowed to switch between the trans isomer and the cis-rich photostationary state. Photoconversion of ionenes in multilayers is lower than in solution, but higher than for multilayers of azobenzene bolaamphiphiles reported recently. 相似文献

An azobenzene derivative with two β-cyclodextrin units was synthesized as a novel photoswitchable host. It undergoes trans-to-cis photoisomerization in aqueous solution with 65.8% cis at the photostationary state and returns to the original trans from with half life of 54,8 h at 25°C. It exhibits circular dichroism bands in the π-π* and n-π* absorption regions of azobenzene in spite of the fact that the azobenzene unit cannot be included in the cyclodextrin cavity, and their absolute dichroism intensities of the cis form become much larger than those of trans one. 相似文献

Photoinduced reversible solid‐to‐liquid transitions of azobenzene‐containing materials can control adhesion. Photoswitchable adhesives based on azobenzene‐containing small molecules and polymers are under intense investigation. The melting points or glass transition temperatures of such azobenzene‐containing materials in trans and cis forms are above and below room temperature, respectively. Photoswitching of these materials results in reversible trans‐cis isomerization and solid‐to‐liquid transitions. The solid trans azobenzene‐containing materials have strong adhesion and the liquid cis azobenzene‐containing materials have weaker adhesion. In this Minireview, we introduce adhesives based on azobenzene‐containing small molecules and polymers. The remaining challenges and perspectives in the field of photoswitchable adhesives using azobenzene‐containing materials are also discussed. 相似文献

Photo-controllable electro-optic response of liquid crystalline cells using photo-isomeric molecules
A photo-controllable liquid crystal (LC) material was evaluated using a nematic LC mixture with azobenzene. This study aimed to determine the mechanisms that result in variations of material parameters specifically caused by the morphological change of guest molecules. The transition from rod-shaped trans isomers to bent-shaped cis isomers weakened the intermolecular ordering interactions and the decreasing order parameter caused variations of material parameters. The shift of dielectric response cannot be solely explained by the weakened intermolecular interactions but is also significantly influenced by the properties of the guest cis isomer itself. The bend elastic constant was more affected than the splay elastic constant, which implies that the shift of the elastic properties is due to the morphological shape of the cis isomer as well as the decreased molecular ordering. Thus, three different mechanisms are involved in the variations of the material properties: (i) weakened intermolecular ordering interactions, (ii) direct contribution of cis isomers, and (iii) molecular morphological interactions of the cis isomer with the host LCs. It was also demonstrated that the optical properties of twisted nematic (TN) cells can be controlled, and that the stability of the bend state in the optically compensated birefringence (OCB) mode cell can be improved. 相似文献

An understanding of the photoisomerization mechanism of molecules bound to a metal surface at the molecular scale is required for designing photoswitches at surfaces. It has remained a challenge to correlate the surface structure and isomerization of photoswitches at ambient conditions. Herein, the photoisomerization of a self‐assembled monolayer of azobenzene‐thiol molecules on a Au surface was investigated using scanning tunneling microscopy and tip‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy. The unique signature of the cis isomer at 1525 cm?1 observed in tip‐enhanced Raman spectra was clearly distinct from the trans isomer. Furthermore, tip‐enhanced Raman images of azobenzene thiols after ultraviolet and blue light irradiation are shown with nanoscale spatial resolution, demonstrating a reversible conformational change. Interestingly, the cis isomers of azobenzene‐thiol molecules were preferentially observed at Au grain edges, which is confirmed by density functional theory. 相似文献

Molecules comprised of three covalently linked bi‐stable switches can exist in states described by a combination of binary numbers, one for each individual switch: ?000?, ?001?, etc. Here we have linked three photo‐/thermoswitches together in a rigid macrocyclic structure, one azobenzene (bit no 1) and two dihydroazulenes (DHAs; bits no 2 and 3) and demonstrate how electronic interactions and unfavorable strain in some states can be used to control the speed by which a certain state is reached. More specifically, upon irradiation of state ?000?, the AZB isomerizes from trans to cis and the two DHAs to vinylheptafulvenes (VHFs), generating ?111?. The thermal VHF‐to‐DHA back‐reactions from this state also occur stepwise and can be accelerated by photo‐induced AZB cis‐to‐trans conversion, proceeding via ?011? to ultimately furnish ?000?. Overall, the accessibility to a specific state of one bit was found to depend on the states of its neighboring bits. 相似文献

Heating and cooling can induce reversible solid‐to‐liquid transitions of matter. In contrast, athermal photochemical processes can induce reversible solid‐to‐liquid transitions of some newly developed azobenzene compounds. Azobenzene is photoswitchable. UV light induces trans‐to‐cis isomerization; visible light or heat induces cis‐to‐trans isomerization. Trans and cis isomers usually have different melting points (Tm) or glass transition temperatures (Tg). If Tm or Tg of an azobenzene compound in trans and cis forms are above and below room temperature, respectively, light may induce reversible solid‐to‐liquid transitions. In this Review, we introduce azobenzene compounds that exhibit photoinduced reversible solid‐to‐liquid transitions, discuss the mechanisms and design principles, and show their potential applications in healable coatings, adhesives, transfer printing, lithography, actuators, fuels, and gas separation. Finally, we discuss remaining challenges in this field. 相似文献

A photoresponsive azobenzene molecule DCAZO2 with two cholesteryl groups linked to both sides of the azobenzene group is doped in a mixture of nematic liquid crystal E7 and chiral dopant S811 (61.9 wt% E7, 36.1 wt% S811 and 2.0 wt% DCAZO2). Cooled from isotropic phase to 33.0°C, chiral nematic liquid crystal (N*LC) was formed in the sample and then the temperature was kept unchanged at 33.0°C. UV light irradiation induces the trans–cis photoisomerisation and thus an obvious phase transition. When the azobenzene groups isomerise to a cis-saturated state, the UV light was turned off and the white light was turned on at the same time. The bent-shaped cis isomer then turns back to the planar trans isomer gradually. A blue–green platelet texture representing cubic blue phase (BP) was observed and the size of the platelets was increased along with the cis–trans isomerisation. UV–vis absorption spectra indicate that the photoinduced BP exists when the isomerisation degree is between 79% and 18%, and further cis–trans isomerisation change BP back into N*LC. The large geometric structure of the cholesteryl groups and the large bent angle θ of the cis isomer are supposed to be responsible for the interesting result. 相似文献

The second order hyperpolarizability of cis azobenzene isomer (γc) was obtained by measuring the third harmonic generation (THG) variation of an azobenzene doped polymer film when the film was optically pumped to create a large amount of cis isomers via photoisomerization. A steady state theory was developed to treat the THG intensity variation by considering the optical pump induced redistribution and reorientation of azobenzene in the polymer film and the contribution of cis isomer to the THG signal. The ratio of γ of cis and trans molecule, (γc/γt), was found to be 0.51. After the γt was obtained from the time-resolved optical Kerr effect (OKE) measurement, γc was deduced to be 5.6 × 10−33 esu. The result shows that the optical nonlinearity of cis isomer is clearly not negligible. 相似文献

Azobenzene‐Bridged Porphyrin Nanorings: Syntheses,Structures, and Photophysical Properties 下载免费PDF全文

Azobenzene‐bridged β‐to‐β and meso‐to‐meso porphyrin nanorings were successfully synthesized by a palladium‐catalyzed Suzuki–Miyaura coupling reaction in a logical synthesis. The dimeric structure was confirmed by XRD analysis. The azo linkages in di‐ and tetramers are in the all‐trans conformation, whereas in the trimers one azo linkage can be interconverted between cis and trans under external stimulation. When trimeric isomers are heated to 333 K or higher, the azo linkages will be in the all‐trans configurations: the pure all‐trans trimer can be kept in the dark for several months. Fluorescence anisotropy and pump‐power‐dependent decay results revealed excitation energy transfer for azobenzene‐bridged zinc–porphyrin nanorings. The distances between porphyrin units of these azobenzene‐bridged porphyrin arrays are almost the same, but the exciton energy hopping (EEH) times for each wheel are markedly different. The dimer and meso‐to‐meso tetramer possess relatively short excitation energy transfer (EET) times (1.28 and 2.48 ps, respectively) due to their good planarity and rigidity. In contrast, the EET time for the trimeric zinc(II)–porphyrin array (6.9 ps) is relatively long due to its nonradiative decay pathway (i.e., cis/trans isomerization of azobenzene). Both di‐ and tetramers exhibit relatively high fluorescence quantum yields, whereas the trimers show weak emission because of structural differences. 相似文献

Photoregulation of RNA remains a challenging task as the introduction of a photoswitch entails changes in the shape and the stability of the duplex that strongly depend on the chosen linker strategy. Herein, the influence of a novel nucleosidic linker moiety on the photoregulation efficiency of azobenzene is investigated. To this purpose, two azobenzene C‐nucleosides were stereoselectively synthesized, characterized, and incorporated into RNA oligonucleotides. Spectroscopic characterization revealed a reversible and fast switching process, even at 20 °C, and a high thermal stability of the respective cis isomers. The photoregulation efficiency of RNA duplexes upon trans‐to‐cis isomerization was investigated by using melting point studies and compared with the known D ‐threoninol‐based azobenzene system, revealing a photoswitching amplitude of the new residues exceeding 90 % even at room temperature. Structural changes in the duplexes upon photoisomerization were investigated by using MM/MD calculations. The excellent photoswitching performance at room temperature and the high thermal stability make these new azobenzene residues promising candidates for in‐vivo and nanoarchitecture photoregulation applications of RNA. 相似文献

The synthesis, supramolecular complexation, and switching of new bifunctional azobenzene–oligoglycerol conjugates in different environments is reported. Through the formation of host–guest complexes with surface immobilized β‐cyclodextrin receptors, the bifunctional switches were coupled to gold surfaces. The isomerization of the amphiphilic azobenzene derivatives was examined in solution, on gold nanoparticles, and on planar gold surfaces. The wettability of functionalized gold surfaces can be reversibly switched under light‐illumination with two different wavelengths. Besides the photoisomerization processes and concomitant effects on functionality, the thermal cis to trans isomerization of the conjugates and their complexes was monitored. Thermal half‐lives of the cis isomers were calculated for different environments. Surprisingly, the half‐lives on gold nanoparticles were significantly smaller compared to planar gold surfaces. 相似文献

Photoswitch triads comprising two dihydroazulene (DHA) units in conjugation with a central trans-azobenzene (AZB) unit were prepared in stepwise protocols starting from meta- and para-disubstituted azobenzenes. The para-connected triad had significantly altered optical properties and lacked the photoactivity of the separate photochromes. In contrast, for the meta-connected triad, all three photochromes could be photoisomerized to generate an isomer with two vinylheptafulvene (VHF) units and a cis-azobenzene unit. Ultrafast spectroscopy of the photoisomerizations revealed a fast DHA-to-VHF photoisomerization and a slower trans-to-cis AZB photoisomerization. This meta triad underwent thermal VHF-to-DHA back-conversion with a similar rate of all VHFs, independent of the identity of the neighboring units, and in parallel thermal cis-to-trans AZB conversion. The experimental observations were supported by computation (excitation spectra and orbital analysis of the transitions). 相似文献

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the energy source for various biochemical processes and biomolecular motors in living things. Development of ATP antagonists and their stimuli-controlled actions offer a novel approach to regulate biological processes. Herein, we developed azobenzene-based photoswitchable ATP antagonists for controlling the activity of motor proteins; cytoplasmic and axonemal dyneins. The new ATP antagonists showed reversible photoswitching of cytoplasmic dynein activity in an in vitro dynein-microtubule system due to the trans and cis photoisomerization of their azobenzene segment. Importantly, our ATP antagonists reversibly regulated the axonemal dynein motor activity for the force generation in a demembranated model of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. We found that the trans and cis isomers of ATP antagonists significantly differ in their affinity to the ATP binding site. 相似文献

An azobenzene group was linked to β‐cyclodextrin via a histidine spacer ( 1 ) to produce a photoresponsive catalyst. The ester hydrolysis of p‐nitrophenyl acetate, Boc‐L ‐alanine‐p‐nitrophenyl ester and Boc‐D ‐alanine‐p‐nitrophenyl ester was examined in the presence of trans‐ 1 or cis‐ 1 . In the case of cis‐ 1 , the cyclodextrin cavity was used as the substrate binding site during imidazole‐catalyzed ester hydrolysis. This was not possible in the case of trans‐ 1 due to the inclusion of the trans‐azobenzene moiety in the cyclodextrin cavity. Consequently, the catalytic mechanism switches in an on‐off fashion on UV irradiation, associated with the conversion of the azobenzene moiety of 1 from trans to cis. 相似文献

We present a quaterthiophene and sexithiophene that can reversibly change their effective π-conjugation length through photoexcitation. The reported compounds make use of light-responsive molecular actuators consisting of an azobenzene attached to a bithiophene unit by both direct and linker-assisted bonding. Upon exposure to 350 nm light, the azobenzene undergoes trans-to-cis isomerization, thus mechanically inducing the oligothiophene to assume a planar conformation (extended π-conjugation). Exposure to 254 nm wavelength promotes azobenzene cis-to-trans isomerization, forcing the thiophenic backbones to twist out of planarity (confined π-conjugation). Twisted conformations are also reached by cis-to-trans thermal relaxation at a rate that increases proportionally with the conjugation length of the oligothiophene moiety. The molecular conformations of quaterthiophene and sexithiophene were characterized by using steady-state UV-vis spectroscopy, X-ray crystallography and quantum-chemical modeling. Finally, we tested the proposed light-responsive oligothiophenes in field-effect transistors to probe the photo-induced tuning of their electronic properties. 相似文献

1,3-Tetrahydro-oxazine-2-ones were prepared by the reaction of cis- and trans-2-hydroxymethylcyclohexylamine, as well as cis- and trans-2-aminomethylcyclohexanol with carbamide. Their structure and stereochemical purity were proved by IR and NMR investigations. With the help of the NMR spectra the conformation of these compounds was established. The trans isomers exist in stable chair-chair conformation. Two chair-chair conformations are possible in the case of the cis isomers; one in which the heteroatom and the methylene group of the heteroring are axial and equatorial, respectively and the second in which their positions are reversed. It was proved that the cis isomers are conformationally homogeneous, having the hetero atom in axial position. 相似文献
