Abstract

A novel unsymmetrical diarylethene derivative bearing both phenyl and thiophene moieties, in which two chlorine groups were separately substituted at thiophene and the para-positions of the terminal phenyl ring, were synthesized. Its photochemical , fluorescence properties were investigated systematically both in solution and PMMA amorphous film. The results showed that this compound exhibited reversible photochromism, changing from colorless to purple after irradiation with 313 UV light both in solution and in PMMA amorphous film. Also, it exhibited remarkable fluorescence switching in the solid state.
