The effective use of photochromic systems based on azo compounds in a number of applications, especially biomedical and pharmacological ones, is impeded by the unresolved problem of their E⇆Z isomerization in the near‐IR region, NIR (780–1400 nm). We have demonstrated at the TD‐DFT, STEOM‐DLPNO‐CCSD and CASSCF‐NEVPT2 levels of theory that the presence of a silylated diazene core −Si−N=N−Si− with three‐, tetra‐ or five‐coordinated silicon atoms practically guarantees the absorption of the E and Z forms of such derivatives in NIR and the amazing (185–400 nm) separation of their first absorption bands. In particular, the maximum λ1 of the first n→π* band of the E isomer of azosilabenzene ASiB is at ∼1030 nm, while for the Z isomer λ1≅1340 nm. Based on the found bistable azo compounds (ASiB, bis(silyl)‐ SiD and bis(silatranyl)‐ SaD diazenes) and their derivatives with E and Z absorption in NIR, unique photoswitches can be created for a number of applications, in particular, for photothermal therapy.
