Photoirradiation wavelength dependence of cycloreversion quantum yields of diarylethenes

Abstract

The cycloreversion quantum yields of compounds 1b and 2b increased upon irradiation with light at shorter wavelengths. The irradiation wavelength dependence is ascribed to the energy barrier on the 2A potential energy surface in the excited electronic state.
