Synthesis and Properties Study of 1-(2,4-Dimethoxyl-5-Pyrimidinyl)-2-[2-Methyl-5-(3-Cyano)-3-Thienyl]Perfluorocyclopentene

Abstract:

A novel photochromic diarylethene bearing a pyrimidine moiety, 1-(2,4-dimethoxyl-5-pyrimidinyl)-2-[2-methyl-5-(3-cyano)-3-thieny-l] perfluorocyclopentene has been synthesized. Its properties, including photochromic behavior and fluorescent properties, have been investigated. The compound exhibited remarkable photochromism, changing from colorless to blue after irradiation with UV light. The results indicated that the pyrimidine moiety played a very important role during the process of photoisomerization reactions.
