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

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

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

Abstract Two classes of thermotropic polymers were synthesized containing the trans-azobenzene unit as both a mesogenic and a photochromic group. In the former class (I) the azobenzene unit is incorporated into the main chain of substituted polymalonates, while in the latter class (II) it is appended as a side chain substituent to a polyacrylate backbone. The liquid-crystalline properties of the polymers were studied as a function of the chemical structure. All of the prepared polymers I have smectic phases. Polymers II are nematic and/or smectic, or cholesteric when including a chiral residue R'. Polymers I and II when radiated at 348 nm in chloroform solution undergo trans-to-cis isomerization of the azobenzene moiety. The calculated rate constants are comparable with those of low molar mass model compounds, and indicate that the macromolecular structure does not significantly affect the photoisomerization rate. 相似文献

Distamycin‐based tetrapeptide ( 1 ) was covalently tethered to both ends of the central dihydroxyazobenzene moiety at either the 2,2′ or 4,4′ positions. This afforded two isomeric, distamycin–azobenzene–distamycin systems, 2 (para) and 3 (ortho), both of them being photoisomerizable. Illumination of these conjugates in solution at approximately 360 nm induced photoisomerization and the time course of the process was followed by UV/Vis and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The kinetics of the thermal reversion at various temperatures of cis to trans isomers of the conjugates obtained after photoillumination were also examined. This afforded the respective thermal‐activation parameters. Both the molecular architecture and the location of the substituent around the core azobenzene determined the rate and activation‐energy barrier for the cis‐to‐trans back‐isomerization of these conjugates in solution. Duplex–DNA binding of the conjugates and the changes in DNA‐binding efficiency upon photoisomerization was also examined by CD spectroscopy, thermal denaturation studies, and a Hoechst displacement assay. The conjugate 2 showed higher DNA‐binding affinity and a greater change in the DNA‐binding efficiency upon photoisomerization compared with its 2,2′‐disubstituted counterpart. The experimental findings were substantiated by using molecular‐docking studies involving each conjugate with a model duplex d[(GC(AT)10CG)]2 DNA molecule. 相似文献

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

There has been a tremendous evolution for artificial ion transport systems, especially gated synthetic systems, which closely mimic their natural congeners. Herein, we demonstrate a trans-azobenzene-based photoregulatory anionophoric system that transports chloride by forming a sandwich dimeric complex. Further studies confirmed a carrier-mediated chloride-anion antiport mechanism, and the supramolecular interactions involved in chloride recognition within the sandwich complex were revealed from theoretical studies. Reversible trans–cis photoisomerization of the azobenzene was achieved without any significant contribution from the thermal cis→trans isomerization at room temperature. Photoregulatory transport activity across the lipid bilayer membrane inferred an outstanding off-on response of the azobenzene photoswitch. 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

The ultrafast photoresponse of small, often cyclic peptides with azobenzene units has widely been investigated during the last years. Both the photoisomerization of the optical switch as well as the different conformational states of the peptide moiety can be characterized by optical spectroscopy. Here, we investigate the fast photoisomerization dynamics of an α-helical 30mer azobenzene peptide. The peptide is based on a construct used for the assembly of di-heme-binding maquettes. The femtosecond to picosecond photodynamics for the trans to cis isomerization of the optical switch was found to occur slower upon its insertion in the peptide construct. Both isomers are sufficiently photostable to allow spectroscopic analysis of conformational states, since the thermal cis–trans relaxation occurs over a period of several hours. This approach thus offers the possibility for the de novo design of photoresponsive chromopeptides which could be instrumental in unravelling fundamental dynamic features of assembly/disassembly triggered by fast photoswitches. 相似文献

The synthesis, thermal characterization, and oxygen index of aromatic polyamides varying with polymeric unit linkage positions (meta and/or para units) and halogen substitution have been reported. It has been found that polyamides containing para units are more thermal stable than those containing meta units. There is no significant effect of the main chain structure studied here on either the pyrolysis pathways or flammability of similarly halogen substituted polyamides. 相似文献

Photochromic molecules are systems that undergo a photoisomerization to high-energy isomers and are attractive for the storage of solar energy in a closed-energy cycle, for example, in molecular solar thermal energy storage systems. One challenge is to control the discharge time of the high-energy isomer. Here, we show that different substituents in the ortho position of a phenyl ring at C-2 of dihydroazulene (DHA-Ph) significantly increase the half-life of the metastable vinylheptafulvene (VHF-Ph) photoisomer; thus, the energy-releasing VHF-to-DHA back-reaction rises from minutes to days in comparison to the corresponding para- and meta-substituted systems. Systems with two photochromic DHA-Ph units connected by a diacetylene bridge either at the para, meta and ortho positions and corresponding to a linear or to a cross-conjugated pathway between the two photochromes are also presented. Here, the ortho substitution was found to compromise the switching properties. Thus, irradiation of ortho-bridged DHA-DHA resulted in degradation, probably due to the proximity of the different functional groups that can give rise to side-reactions. 相似文献

Photochemical phase transition of push-pull type azobenzene liquid crystal (LC), which contains both an electron donor and an acceptor in both ends of the azobenzene moiety, has been explored. Polymer azobenzene LCs were prepared, which show nematic (N) LC behavior in the trans form while no LC phase in the cis isomer. Photoirradiation of a very thin film of the azobenzene LCs (∼ 200 nm) in the trans form resulted in disappearance of the N phase due to transcis photoisomerization of each mesogen, and the N phase recovered quickly when the irradiated sample was kept in the dark because of cis-trans thermal isomerization and reorientation of trans-azobenzenes. Time-resolved measurements by the use of a laser pulse (355 nm; 10 ns FWHM) revealed that the N to isotropic (I) phase transition took place in 200 μs. The thermal I-N phase transition of the push-pull type azobenzene LC occurred in 800 ms at 135 °C. This response is faster by one order of magnitude than the response of azobenzene LCs without charge-transfer interaction. 相似文献

The cis ⇌ trans photoisomerization of the azobenzene building block 4-(4-aminophenylazo)benzoic acid incorporated in a cyclic peptide (see scheme) facilitated a two-state transition of the peptide chain from a rigid constrained conformation in the trans isomer into the largely free conformational space of the cis isomer. 相似文献

Azobenzene switches its structure instantaneously by reversible trans‐to‐cis and cis‐to‐trans photoisomerization with light irradiations. Dynamic change in polymer structure is expected via introducing an azobenzene unit into the main chain. In this study, a set of methyl‐substituted azobenzene–carbazole conjugated copolymers is synthesized by the Suzuki–Miyaura coupling method. Introduction of methyl substituents to the azobenzene unit of the monomer, and polymerization in a high‐boiling solvent improve the molecular weight of the polymer. Decrease of effective conjugation length due to the twisted structure of the main chain allows progress of photoisomerization. The microstructure of the polymer was determined with grazing incidence X‐ray diffraction (GIXD) measurements using synchrotron radiation. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym.

We present the synthesis and switching studies of systems with two photochromic dihydroazulene (DHA) units connected by a phenylene bridge at either para or meta positions, which correspond to a linear or cross‐conjugated pathway between the photochromes. According to UV/Vis absorption and NMR spectroscopic measurements, the meta‐phenylene‐bridged DHA–DHA exhibited sequential light‐induced ring openings of the two DHA units to their corresponding vinylheptafulvenes (VHFs). Initially, the VHF–DHA species was generated, and, ultimately, after continued irradiation, the VHF–VHF species. Studies in different solvents and quantum chemical calculations indicate that the excitation of DHA–VHF is no longer a local DHA excitation but a charge‐transfer transition that involves the neighboring VHF unit. For the linearly conjugated para‐phenylene‐bridged dimer, electronic communication between the two units is so efficient that the photoactivity is reduced for both the DHA–DHA and DHA–VHF species, and DHA–DHA, DHA–VHF, and VHF–VHF were all present during irradiation. In all, by changing the bridging unit, we can control the degree of stepwise photoswitching. 相似文献

Three types of bi‐functionalized copolymers ( P1FAz , P2FAz , and P3FAz ) with different numbers of fluorene units and an azobenzene unit were synthesized and characterized using UV–vis and polarized absorption spectroanalysis. The trans‐cis photoisomerization was conformed under 400 nm light irradiation for all copolymers in chloroform. However, in the film state, only the trans‐cis photoisomerization occurred by mono‐fluorene attached copolymer poly[(9,9‐di‐n‐octylfluorenyl‐2,7‐diyl)‐alt‐4,4′‐azobenzene)] ( P1FAz ). Photo‐induced alignment was achieved using the P1FAz film after irradiation with linear polarized 400 nm light and subsequent annealing at 60 °C. Surface orientation of a spin‐coating film of poly(9,9‐didodecylfluorene) ( F12 ) was achieved using the photo‐induced alignment layer of the P1FAz film after annealing at 90 °C. The photo‐induced alignment layer of P1FAz has potential application to the surface orientation technique for appropriate polymers, which will be useful for the fabrication of optoelectronics devices. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A new photoswitch for DNA hybridization involving para‐substituted azobenzenes (such as isopropyl‐ or tert‐butyl‐substituted derivatives) with L ‐threoninol as a linker was synthesized. Irradiation of the modified DNA with visible light led to dissociation of the duplex owing to the destabilization effect of the bulky substituent on the trans‐azobenzene. In contrast, trans‐to‐cis isomerization (UV light irradiation) facilitated duplex formation. The direction of this photoswitching mode was entirely reversed relative to the previous system with an unmodified azobenzene on D ‐threoninol whose trans form turned on the hybridization, and cis form turned it off. Such reversed and reversible photoswitching of DNA hybridization was directly demonstrated by using fluorophore‐ and quencher‐attached oligonucleotides. Furthermore, it was revealed that the cis‐to‐trans thermal isomerization was greatly suppressed in the presence of the complementary strand owing to the formation of the more‐stable duplex in the cis form. 相似文献

The synthesis of a series of azobenzene containing liquid crystalline methacrylic homopolymers, poly(4-ω-methacryloyloxy-hexyloxy-4′-ethoxyazobenzene) [Poly(M6A)], with distinct average chain lengths and low polydispersity has been achieved by Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization (ATRP) in THF solution using allyl 2-bromoisobutyrate as initiator and Cu(I)Br as catalyst. Under the adopted conditions the living centers concentration is found to be constant throughout the polymerization process and well defined chain end-groups are obtained. All the obtained polymeric samples, having average molecular mass ranging from 3300 to 14000 g/mol, exhibit smectic and nematic liquid-crystalline phases on heating, with transition temperatures strongly dependent on polymerization degree, as characterized by differential scanning calorimetry and polarized optical microscopy.The photomechanical effects (i.e. the dependence of volume and density) exhibited upon trans-to-cis and cis-to-trans photoisomerization of the azobenzene mesogenic groups have been investigated by ellipsometry and related to molecular weight, with particular attention to important parameters for potential applications such as the relative variation of total volume, response time, stability and reproducibility. 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
