A cautionary tale of basic azo photoswitching in dichloromethane finally explained
Many studies of azobenzene photoswitches are carried out in polar aprotic solvents as a first principles characterization of thermal isomerization. Among the most convenient polar aprotic solvents are chlorinated hydrocarbons, such as DCM.

A predictive screening tool to evaluate the efficiency of Z/E photoisomerizable molecular switches
The evaluation of the Z/E photoisomerization efficiency is an essential task to design photoactive molecular devices. Nevertheless, this photoreactivity can be correctly described only by applying extensive and expensive computational methods.
