🚨📢Out now in #Chem, @jiarongwu.bsky.social and I figure out how to perturb a non-photoresponsive reaction(🌚) out of equilibrium using our imine-based photoswitches🔦💡This is achieved using a light-responsive transimination!(🌝)

and for today... a [3x3] study of iminobispyrazole 💡switches. We found the variation in properties dependent upon the regiochem. This led to a more extensive study (the Angew.).

And the post for today... this is where our imine photoswitch adventure started (also the start of the group😀)
We were surprised how the functionalization impacted the imines differently from the azo-switches.
We look forward to sharing more imines in the future :D #chemsky

Photoswitchable imines: aryliminopyrazoles quantitatively convert to long-lived Z-isomers with visible light
Arylimines offer promise in dynamic-covalent materials due to their recyclability and ease of synthesis. However, their light-triggered E/Z isomerism has received little attention. This is attributed ...
