Abstract

trans-1-(9-Anthryl)-2-(n-pyridyl)ethene (t-n-APyE, n=2 or 4) and trans-1-(9-anthryl)-2-pyrazinylethene (T-APzE) exhibits solvent-dependent fluorescence and efficient trans)cis photoisomerization. Photochemical reactivities of t-2-APyE, t-4-APyE, and t-APzE have been investigated in nonpolar and polar solvents. In nonpolar solvent, parallel photocyclization reaction occurs very efficiently in competition with the fluorescence and photoisomerization. But, in polar solvent, photocyclization was not observed. It is probably due to the stabilization of charge separated state in polar solvent, which is an intermediate in photoisomerization reaction.
