Photochromic core structure, triangle terthiophene, is configured to the design of 2,3-Bis(2,5-dimethylthiophen)-5-methoxyphenylethynylthiophene (PT) and 2,3-Bis(2,5-dimethylthiophen)-5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3-butadiene-1,1,4,4-tetracarbonitrile(MPT) and characterized by NMR and HRMS technol. The photochromic behavior is investigated in typical solvents. With in hexane, reversibly photochromic process is induced by alternative irradiation of UV and Visible light. The solution color of can be toggled between colorless and pink, forming a switch cycle. In chloroform, the photochromic wavelength moves to shorter wavelength side. For, UV light induced photochromism is not observed Due to the addition of tetracarbonitrile, its strong electron-withdrawing character significantly lowers the electron d. on reactive carbon atoms in LUMO, which is one of the key elements to support the photoactive of photochromism. Therefore, the mol. configuration of electron distribution is important to the design of photochromic dyes. This study involved multiple reactions and reactants, such as 2,5-Dimethylthiophene (cas: 638-02-8COA of Formula: C6H8S).
2,5-Dimethylthiophene (cas: 638-02-8) belongs to benzothiophene derivatives. Benzothiophenes are valuable heterocycles that are widely used in medicines, agrochemicals, and materials science. The different substitution patterns in these heterocycles offer new opportunities for drug discovery and other applications in materials science.COA of Formula: C6H8S
