Synthesis and Properties Study of 1-[2-Methyl-5-(3-Trifluoromethyl)-3-Thienyl]-2-[2-Methyl-5-(9-Phenanthrene)-3-Thienyl]Perfluorocyclopentene

Abstract:

An asymmetrical photochromic diarylethene 1-[2-methyl-5-(3-trifluoromethyl)-3-thienyl]-2-[2-methyl-5-(9-phenanthren-e)-3-thienyl] perfluorocyclopente-ne was synthesized and its photochemical properties were investigated in detail. The results demonstrated that the compound has excellent photochromic properties and good fluoresence. The cyclization/cycloreversion process of the compound was determined to be the zeroth/first order reaction.
