“…As observed for most of the reported diarylethenes, [30][31][32] diarylethenes 1-3 exhibited notable fluorescent switches by photoirradiation. The fluorescence changes of diarylethene 1 in hexane (5.0 × 10 -5 mol L -1 ) are shown in Figure 7.…”

Three new unsymmetrical pyridine-containing diarylethenes with a variable peripheral heteroaryl unit were synthesized and their structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The substituent effects of variable heteroaryl groups on the photochromic and fluorescence properties were systematically discussed. Thienyl and thiazyl could effectively enhance the cyclization quantum yields and photoconversion ratios in the photostationary state, as compared to the phenyl group. However, they had no obvious effect on the fluorescence behaviors. Moreover, X-ray structural analysis revealed that the N … S heteroatom-contact interactions resulted in a higher cyclization quantum yield, which may be ascribed to the effective stabilizing ability on the photoreactive formations in diarylethenes with a thienyl/thiazyl unit.

Recent Advances on Functionalized Upconversion Nanoparticles for Detection of Small Molecules and Ions in Biosystems

Significant progress on upconversion‐nanoparticle (UCNP)‐based probes is witnessed in recent years. Compared with traditional fluorescent probes (e.g., organic dyes, metal complexes, or inorganic quantum dots), UCNPs have many advantages such as non‐autofluorescence, high chemical stability, large light‐penetration depth, long lifetime, and less damage to samples. This article focuses on recent achievements in the usage of lanthanide‐doped UCNPs as efficient probes for biodetection since 2014. The mechanisms of upconversion as well as the luminescence resonance energy transfer process is introduced first, followed by a detailed summary on the recent researches of UCNP‐based biodetections including the detection of inorganic ions, gas molecules, reactive oxygen species, and thiols and hydrogen sulfide.

“…Photochromic diarylethene compounds have received intense interest because of their potential applications in the area of optoelectronics such as optical recording, photo-switching, and full-color display devices [1][2][3][4][5][6]. Among the numerous reported photochromic compounds, diarylethene derivatives have been achieved much attention because of their outstanding fatigue resistance and thermally irreversible photochromic behavior [7][8][9].…”

Abstract.A new asymmetrical photochromic diarylethene, 1-(2-methyl-3-benzofuryl)-2-(2-methyl-5-naphthyl-3-thienyl)perfluorocyclopentene (1o) was synthesized, and its photochromism and fluorescence properties were studied in detail. Upon irradiation with 297 nm UV light, the colorless 1o changed to violet both in solution and solid state. In addition, 1o had favourable fatigue resistant, which could be potential use for practical application in optical devices. Finally, a remarkable fluorescence switching was observed along with the photocyclization reaction of 1o.
