Synthesis and Properties Study of 1-(2,4-dimethoxyl-5-pyrimidinyl)-2-[2-methyl-5-(3-methylbenzene)-3-thienyl]perfluorocyclopentene

Abstract:

A new unsymmetrical photochromic diarylethene with a pyrimidine unit has been successfully synthesized. The photochromism properties in both solution and poly-methylmethacrylate (PMMA) film were investigated in detail. Its fluorescence had a remarkable initial increase with subsequent dramatic decrease with increasing concentration. The results indicated that the pyrimidine moiety played a very important role during the process of photochromic reaction for the diarylethene derivative.
