具有多个光致变色单元的二芳基乙烯分子光密度的增加

3,4-Diaryl-2,5-dihydropyrrole with multiphotochromophore units la was synthesized and its photochromic properties were investigated. It showed that all photochromophore units underwent reversible ring-opening （1a） and ring-closing （1b） photoisomerization reactions in both solution and polymer film with UV/Vis light irradiation, and photochromic properties of la were similar to those of photochromic diarylethene with monophotochromophore 2a. It was found that the optical density of lb was increased linearly with increase of the photochromophore units by comparison with that of 2b in the same condition. It was also found that no significant changes in absorption band and response time between diarylethenes with multiphotochromophores and monophotochromophore were detected in the same condition.     

Achieving Enhanced Photochromic Properties of Diarylethene through Host-Guest Interaction in Aqueous Solution

Diarylethene (DTE) has been widely used in fluorescence probes, molecular logic gates, optical data-storage devices owing to the excellent photochromic property, while constructing high-performance photochromic DTE in aqueous media remains a big challenge. Herein we present several host-guest systems formed between cucurbit[n]uril (CB[n], n=7, 8, 10) and two water-soluble DTE derivatives 1 and 2 . It was found that host-guest interactions not only affect the photophysical properties of photochromic guests, but also make great differences on the photoreaction process. Different host-guest binding behaviors also lead to different effects on the photochromic properties of guests. In the presence of CB[n], both 1 and 2 showed enhanced emission and higher fluorescence quenching ratio at photostationary state. Besides, CB[10] ⋅1 exhibited faster response rate in cyclization reaction and better photofatigue resistance than free 1 in aqueous solution, while the supramolecular assembly of (CB[8])_n ⋅ ( 2 )_n showed slower response rate in both directions of the reversible photoreaction. Besides, the photofatigue resistance of 2 can be greatly improved through binding with CB[7]. Our results suggest that host-guest interactions could be an efficient way to improve photochromic properties of DTE in aqueous solution.

Solar Thermal Energy Storage in a Photochromic Macrocycle

The conversion and efficient storage of solar energy is recognized to hold significant potential with regard to future energy solutions. Molecular solar thermal batteries based on photochromic systems exemplify one possible technology able to harness and apply this potential. Herein is described the synthesis of a macrocycle based on a dimer of the dihydroazulene/vinylheptafulvene (DHA/VHF) photo/thermal couple. By taking advantage of conformational strain, this DHA–DHA macrocycle presents an improved ability to absorb and store incident light energy in chemical bonds (VHF–VHF). A stepwise energy release over two sequential ring‐closing reactions (VHF→DHA) combines the advantages of an initially fast discharge, hypothetically addressing immediate energy consumption needs, followed by a slow process for consistent, long‐term use. This exemplifies another step forward in the molecular engineering and design of functional organic materials towards solar thermal energy storage and release.     

DFT/TDDFT Investigation of the Modulation of Photochromic Properties in an Organoboron‐Based Diarylethene by Fluoride Ions

The diarylethene derivative 1,2‐bis‐(5′‐dimesitylboryl‐2′‐methylthieny‐3′‐yl)‐cyclopentene ( 1 ) containing dimesitylboryl groups is an interesting photochromic material. The dimesitylboryl groups can bind to F^?, which tunes the optical and electronic properties of the diarylethene compound. Hence, the diarylethene derivative 1 containing dimesitylboryl groups is sensitive to both light and F^?, and its photochromic properties can be tuned by a fluoride ion. Herein, we studied the substituent effect of dimesitylboron groups on the optical properties of both the closed‐ring and open‐ring isomers of the diarylethene molecule by DFT/TDDFT calculations and found that these methods are reliable for the determination of the lowest singlet excitation energies of diarylethene compounds. The introduction of dimesitylboron groups to the diarylethene compound can elongate its conjugation length and change the excited‐state properties from π→π* transition to a charge‐transfer state. This explains the modulation of photochromic properties through the introduction of dimesitylboron groups. Furthermore, the photochromic properties can be tuned through the binding of F^? to a boron center and the excited state of the diarylethene compound is changed from a charge‐transfer state to a π→π* transition. Hence, a subtle control of the photochromic spectroscopic properties was realized. In addition, the changes of electronic characteristics by the isomerization reaction of diarylethene compounds were also investigated with theoretical calculations. For the model compound 2 without dimesitylboryl groups, the closed‐ring isomer has better hole‐ and electron‐injection abilities, as well as higher charge‐transport rates, than the open‐ring isomer. The introduction of dimesitylboron groups to diarylethene can dramatically improve the charge‐injection and ‐transport abilities. The closed isomer of compound 1 ( 1 C ) has the best hole‐ and electron‐injection abilities, whereas the charge‐transport rates of the open isomer of compound 1 ( 1 O ) are higher than those of 1 C . Importantly, 1 O is an electron‐accepting and ‐transport material. These results show that the diarylethene compound containing dimesitylboryl groups has promising potential to be applied in optoelectronic devices and thus is worth to be further investigated.     

Photoswitching CO2 Capture and Release in a Photochromic Diarylethene Metal–Organic Framework

We demonstrate herein a promising pathway towards low‐energy CO₂ capture and release triggered by UV and visible light. A photosensitive diarylethene ligand was used to construct a photochromic diarylethene metal–organic framework (DMOF). A local photochromic reaction originating from the framework movement induced by the photoswitchable diarylethene unit resulted in record CO₂‐desorption capacity of 75 % under static irradiation and 76 % under dynamic irradiation.     

Control of the Single‐Molecule Magnet Behavior of Lanthanide‐Diarylethene Photochromic Assemblies by Irradiation with Light

Lanthanide‐based extended coordination frameworks showing photocontrolled single‐molecule magnet (SMM) behavior were prepared by combining highly anisotropic Dy^III and Ho^III ions with the carboxylato‐functionalized photochromic molecule 1,2‐bis(5‐carboxyl‐2‐methyl‐3‐thienyl)perfluorocyclopentene (H₂dae), which acts as a bridging ligand. As a result, two new compounds of the general formula [{Ln^III₂(dae)₃(DMSO)₃(MeOH)} ? 10 M eOH]_n (M=Dy for 1 a and Ho for 2 ) and two additional pseudo‐polymorphs [{Dy^III₂(dae)₃(DMSO)₃(H₂O)} ? x MeOH]_n ( 1 b ) and [{Dy^III₂(dae)₃(DMSO)₃(DMSO)} ? x MeOH]_n ( 1 c ) were obtained. All four compounds have 2D coordination‐layer topologies, in which carboxylate‐bridged Ln₂ units are linked together by dae^2? anions into grid‐like frameworks. All four compounds exhibited a strong reversible photochromic response to UV/Vis light. Moreover, both 1 a and 2 show field‐induced SMM behavior. The slow magnetic relaxation of 1 a is influenced by the photoisomerization reaction leading to the observation of the cross‐effect: photocontrolled SMM behavior.

Towards Solar Energy Storage in the Photochromic Dihydroazulene–Vinylheptafulvene System

One key challenge in the field of exploitation of solar energy is to store the energy and make it available on demand. One possibility is to use photochromic molecules that undergo light‐induced isomerization to metastable isomers. Here we present efforts to develop solar thermal energy storage systems based on the dihydroazulene (DHA)/vinylheptafulvene (VHF) photo/thermoswitch. New DHA derivatives with one electron‐withdrawing cyano group at position 1 and one or two phenyl substituents in the five‐membered ring were prepared by using different synthetic routes. In particular, a diastereoselective reductive removal of one cyano group from DHAs incorporating two cyano groups at position 1 turned out to be most effective. Quantum chemical calculations reveal that the structural modifications provide two benefits relative to DHAs with two cyano groups at position 1: 1) The DHA–VHF energy difference is increased (i.e., higher energy capacity of metastable VHF isomer); 2) the Gibbs free energy of activation is increased for the energy‐releasing VHF to DHA back‐reaction. In fact, experimentally, these new derivatives were so reluctant to undergo the back‐reaction at room temperature that they practically behaved as DHA to VHF one‐way switches. Although lifetimes of years are at first attractive, which offers the ultimate control of energy release, for a real device it must of course be possible to trigger the back‐reaction, which calls for further iterations in the future.
