Synthesis and Photochromism Studies of 1-(2,4-dimethoxyl-5-pyrimidinyl)-2-[2-methyl-5-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)-3-thienyl]perfluorocyclopentene

Abstract:

The photochchromic diarylethene was synthesized and explored, which is named 1-(2,4-dimethoxyl-5-pyrimidinyl)-2-[2-methyl-5-(2-trifluoromethylphenyl)-3-thienyperfluorocyclopentene. This compound has shown good photochromic behavior. When irradiated with UV light. The compound changed from colorless to violet, which showed a relatively strong fluorescence switch along with the photochromism from open-ring isomer to closed-ring isomer.
