Improving the kinetics and dark equilibrium of donor–acceptor Stenhouse adduct by triene backbone design
Julie Peterson, Friedrich Stricker, Javier Read de Alaniz
Abstract
H NMR spectroscopy, time-dependent UV-Vis and solvatochromic analysis. The new DASA derivative shows a higher dark equillibrium, favoring the open form, and drastically faster thermal recovery than the unsubstituted derivative with the same donor and acceptor.
