Abstract

AbstractWe report the design, synthesis, characterization, and photochemistry of three photoresponsive azoheteroarene‐based neutral N‐donor ligands. Furthermore, those bidentate and tridentate ligands have been coordinated with Cu(I) and Cu(II) metal ions to form seven complexes exhibiting different geometries and nuclearities. Detailed studies of the electronic properties, photoswitching, and thermal reverse isomerization behavior of the photoswitched states of the free ligands and their metal complexes in different solvents are presented.
