Control of Cycloreversion Quantum Yields of Diarylethenes by Introduction of Substituents at the Reactive Carbons
摘要:
Several diarylethene derivatives having various substituents at the reactive carbons were prepared and the quantum yields were measured. Although the cyclization quantum yields were scarcely affected by the introduction of substituents, the cycloreversion quantum yields varied depending on the substituents.
Highly efficient photocycloreversion reaction was observed for diarylethene derivatives with cyano groups at the reactive carbons of the thiophene rings. The cycloreversion quantum yield of 1,2-bis(2-cyano-5-phenyl-3-thienyl)perfluorocyclopentene was found to be ca. 30 times larger than that of 1,2-bis(2-methyl-5-phenyl-3-thienyl)perfluorocyclopentene.
