Photochromic and Kinetics Properties of a New Symmetrical Diarylethene Containing a Terminal Hydroxyl

Article Preview

Abstract:

A symmetrical photochromic diarylethene 1a has been synthesized. Its photochemical properties, including photochromic behavior and kinetics, have been investigated in detail. The compound showed good photochromism both in solution and in solid state. The back irradiation by appropriate wavelength visible light regenerated its open-ring isomers and recovered the original emission intensity. Using diarylethene 1a as recording medium, polarization holographic optical recording was carried out successfully.
