Abstract
Detection of oxygen though color change is highly desirable for rapid qualitative analysis like the case of pH test papers. This work demonstrates 3O2-assisted photoinduced color change of a new photochromic coordination compound [Zn(4-aminopyridine)2Cl2] (ZnaPyCl), which represents the first photochromic compound with a selective 3O2 detection ability. The compound underwent photoinduced intraligand charge separation and formed a stable diradical-like triplet species in the solid state or in frozen solution, accompanied by conversion of triplet oxygen to singlet oxygen.
