Abstract:Azo-pyridinic derivatives are renowned for their ability to undergo reversible molecular switching when exposed to light. By combining the photoresponsive properties of azo-benzene with the supramolecular capabilities of pyridyl groups, azopyridines offer a route to develop multifunctional responsive materials through noncovalent interactions or reversible chemical reactions. Although azo-pyridine and its derivatives are commonly used in crystal engineering, their spectroscopic characterization is typically li… Show more
