摘要: Control over molecular motion represents an important objective in modern chemistry. Aromatic azobenzenes are excellent candidates as switches since they can exist two forms, namely the cis (Z) and trans (E) isomers, which interconvert both photochemically thermally. This transformation induces a movement significant geometric change, therefore azobenzene unit is candidate to build dynamic devices. We describe selected examples of systems containing moiety their motions geometrical changes caused by external stimuli.
