Synthesis of covalently bonded boron-dipyrromethene-diarylethene for building a stable photosensitizer with photo-controlled reversibility

Chem Commun (Camb). 2016 Apr 7;52(31):5470-3. doi: 10.1039/c6cc01864e.

Abstract

We report the synthesis and characterization of a photosensitizer containing boron-dipyrromethene and diarylethene. The photosensitizer has photo-controlled reversible photosensitivity and offers potential applications in photochemical catalysis and the degradation of organic pollutants.
