Abstract
Optically active tetrakis (p-alkoxyphenyl) ethylenes were found to function as reversible chiroptical switches upon redox transformations. Successive one-electron oxidations of chirally modified tetraarylethylene to the corresponding radical cation and then to the dication led to dramatic changes in the electronic absorption and circular dichroism (CD) spectra. The neutral species showed no color or CD in the visible region, while the radical ...
