Azobenzene photoswitches for biomolecules

Chemical Society Reviews, 2011
The photoisomerization of azobenzene has been known for almost 75 years but only recently has this process been widely applied to biological systems. The central challenge of how to productively couple the isomerization process to a large functional change in a biomolecule has been met in a number of instances and it appears that effective photocontrol

Theoretical Study of the Isomerization Mechanism of Azobenzene and Disubstituted Azobenzene Derivatives

The Journal of Physical Chemistry A, 2006
A series of azobenzenes was studied using ab initio methods to determine the substituent effects on the isomerization pathways. Energy barriers were determined from three-dimensional potential energy surfaces of the ground and electronically excited states. In the ground state (S(0)), the inversion pathway was found to be preferred.

The azobenzene derivatives

SPIE Proceedings, 2015
Azobenzene derivatives constitute a group of dyes which have photochromic properties and have been investigated as promising systems for diverse applications in the unconventional optic area, their properties can be moulded with help of light.

Photodecomposition of azobenzenes

Journal of Chemical Technology and Biotechnology, 1980
AbstractUpon ultraviolet irradiation azobenzene and decafluoroazobenzene in cyclohexane and diethyl ether solutions decompose into phenylazo, phenylazomethylene and aniline radicals. The major products formed in cyclohexane solution are N‐cyclohexylaniline, N‐cyclohexylpentafluoroaniline, phenylazocyclohexane, pentafluorophenyl‐azocyclohexane, 1‐phenyl‐

Thermolysis of azobenzene

Russian Chemical Bulletin, 1993
Thermolysis of azobenzene in a melt and in solution results in the formation of aniline. The possible directions of the reaction are considered. Comparison of the enthalpies of the reaction proves that the cleavage of a π-bond in the N=N group to form a biradical intermediate is thermodynamically more favorable than that of a C-N π-bond.

Cyclic Azobenzene‐BODIPY Hybrids

Chemistry – A European Journal, 2023
AbstractCyclic azobenzene‐BODIPY hybrids were synthesized via cyclization by 1) acid‐catalysed condensation of azobenzene‐bridged dipyrroles with 3,5‐di‐tert‐butylbenzaldehyde, 2) oxidation with DDQ, and 3) metalation with BF3 ⋅ Et2O. The structures of many cyclic hybrids have been confirmed by single crystal X‐ray analysis.

Theoretical study on the pyrolysis of azobenzene and complex of azobenzene/NO2

Journal of Molecular Structure: THEOCHEM, 2008
Abstract The (U)MP2/6-311+G ∗ //(U)HF/6-31G ∗ strategy was used to study the thermal decomposition mechanism of azobenzene and its complex with two NO 2 radicals. The calculated results showed that the initial thermal decomposition of azobenzene mainly involved the homolytic fission of the C N bond.

Phenylation of azobenzene

Journal of the Chemical Society B: Physical Organic, 1970
The substituent effect of the phenylazo-group in homolytic phenylation has been measured with azobenzene as substrate and nitrobenzene as reference compound. Even after allowance for the large number of sites of substitution the phenylazo-group was shown to equal the nitro-group in its activating power.
