Abstract

A combination of photochromism and other molecular functionalities is an efficient way to constructnovel multi-mode photofunctional molecules. From this perspective, a considerable number of photochromicmetal complexes involving photochromic moieties and coordination compounds with unique electronic, magneticand optical properties have been investigated. One research point of interest in the photochromic complexesfocuses on how metal coordination affects the isomerization behavior of the photochromic moiety. Propermolecular structural design can more strongly stabilize a metastable state in support of feasible metal–ligandinteractions, improving the thermal durability of the molecular photomemory. Moreover, isomerization canbe caused not only by the excitation at the photochromic moiety, but also by the stimulation (light or electron)at the metal complex moiety. The multi-moiety combined response may be able to construct an integratedmemory or a logic gate in a single molecule. Another research point of interest focuses on howstructural conversion at the photochromic moiety affects electromagnetic properties at the complex moiety.Several studies have shown how photon information/energy is converted to luminescence, an electronic signal,or a magnetic response at the complex moiety. Interactions between multiple complex moieties can alsobe reversibly tuned with light when the photochromic moiety is used as a spacer between them. Herewe review recent studies on the combination of photochromic moieties with coordination compounds, categorizingthe research findings according to the structure of the photochromic moieties.
