摘要
We present a series of visible-light-absorbing azobenzene photo-switches with cis-lifetimes ranging from one second to three days. We combine ortho-fluorination to control the cis-lifetimes, and ortho-amination to boost the visible-light absorption. The synthesis is accomplished by selectively replacing one or more ortho-fluorines with amines in the ortho-fluoroazobenzene precursors.
