| Research Abstract |
Some diarylethene derivatives, which introduce a fluorescent unit at the reactive carbon of diarylethenes were synthesized and studied its fluorescence photoswitching properties. In these studies, an unexpected photoreaction, in which the photocyclization reaction of the photoswitching unit proceeds with non-absorbing wavelength light, was accidently found. From several experiments, it is suggested that the unexpected reaction proceeds from the triplet-state of diarylethene unit. This result was extended to the synthesis of a novel single-molecular fluorescent photoswitching molecule with the non-destructive readout capability. The fluorescence and photochromic performances of this molecule allow us to achieve the fluorescence photoswitching with non-destructive readout in the solution as well as even at the single-molecule level.
