Abstract

Abstract Several transition metal complexes based on 2, 3-bis (2, 4, 5-trimethyl-3-thienyl) maleic anhydride (DTE) bearing terpyridine (TPY) have been designed and synthesized. Furthermore, the photochromism of the free ligand and the influence of transition metal moieties on the photochemical properties have been thoroughly characterized by monitoring the changes in their UVvis spectra. Compounds 3–6 all display excellent response to UV ...
