The review describes photoswitchable molecular receptors based on spiropyran,
spirooxazine, and chromene molecules. The presence of coordination centers in their …

A spirooxazine derivative, PheSPO (3, 3-dimethyl-1-phenethylspiro [indoline-2, 3′-naphtho
[2, 1-b][1, 4] oxazine]), as a dual-sensing probe for Cu2+ and Fe3+ was synthesized, and its …

Stimuli-responsive devices containing photoswitchable compounds have received a great
deal of attention for constructing portable opto-chemical sensors in detection of solvent …

A new class of amphiphilic spiropyran derivatives has been designed and synthesized.
Their photophysical and photochromic properties have been investigated. Under UV light …

The results of studying the photoinduced and dark formation of complexes between
molecules of the merocyanine form of photochromic spirocompounds (spiropyrans …

Spiropyran molecular switches, in conjunction with transition metal ions, are shown to
operate as reversible polymer cross-linkers. Solutions containing a spiropyran …

A series of cyclometalated iridium (III) complexes has been designed and synthesized, and
their photophysical, photochromic, and electrochemical properties have been studied. The X …

A polarizable continnum model study and explicit solvation in water investigated through
GPU-accelerated ab initio molecular dynamics followed by quantum-chemical calculations …

A series of photochromic triethylene glycol (TEG)-containing spiropyrans (SPs) has been
designed and synthesized. UV–Vis absorption and emission studies demonstrated that their …

A novel photochromic spirooxazine derivative bearing a carbazole moiety (SOC) was
synthesized and studied in solution under flash photolysis conditions. It is found to exhibit …
