Photochromism of 7-(N,N-diethylamino)-4′-hydroxyflavylium in a water–ionic liquid biphasic system
Abstract
Photochromism of trans-4-(N,N-diethylamino)-2,4′-dihydroxychalcone, with formation of the photoproduct 7-(N,N-diethylamino)-4′-hydroxyflavylium, is promoted in the ionic liquid phase of a water/[bmim][PF6] biphasic system.
