Deskripsi

A new synthesis of cyclotrisazobenzene with different substituents was developed with yields of up to 30%. Solid-state structures of cyclotrisazobenzene as well as the tert-butyl derivative were obtained. Also, the photochromic properties and the complexation behaviour with alkali metal ions of this class of molecules were investigated.
