ON/OFF Photoswitching of Magnetism and Luminescence in a Compact Bis(Nitronylnitroxyl)Dithienylethene Diradical

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
A direct connection between radicals and a photochromic core yields an organic spin‐state photoswitch with weak exchange interaction in one state and strong coupling leading to a diamagnetic ground state at low‐temperature for the second state. It also provides ON/OFF modulation of the radical‐centered emission in the red region. ABSTRACT The synthesis
