The invention discloses a DASAs molecular
optical switch capable of realizing
solid film
isomerization and a synthesis method and application thereof. The DASAs molecular
optical switch is 5-((2Z, 4E)-5-(benzyl ((4-methylpyridine-2-yl) methyl) amino)-2-hydroxypent-2, 4-
diene-1-
subunit)-2, 2-dimethyl-1, 3-dioxane-4, 6-
diketone, 4-methylpyridine-2-
formaldehyde reacts with
benzylamine, then N-benzyl-1-(4-methylpyridine-2-yl)
methylamine is synthesized through reduction of
sodium borohydride, and then the DASAs molecular
optical switch is obtained. The preparation method comprises the following steps: reacting 2, 3-dimethoxy-1, 3-dioxane-4, 6-
diketone in
methanol, and reacting with 5-(
furan-2-yl
methylene)-2, 2-dimethyl-1, 3-dioxane-4, 6-
diketone in
methanol to synthesize the compound. The DASAs molecular
photoswitch disclosed by the invention has rapid and reversible
isomerization response to visible light and shows remarkable selective
color response to
metal ions, and in addition, the molecular
photoswitch can realize reversible
photochromism in a
solid state in a
polymer substrate. More importantly, the pure-phase
solid film prepared by the molecular optical switch can realize
photoisomerization, and has huge application potential in the fields of optical
information storage and information permanent
encryption,
metal ion detectors and the like.
